      Thanks for the tip! I checked Home Depot and Lowe's today and saw lots of Halloween merchandise but not these particular skeletons in a Mego scale. I'll check Big Lots in the near future. Fun!

        I went to Biglots today and they had them, but all the legs were backwards, bending forward, instead of backwards.

          Apparently they were that way last year too... but can be fixed yourself.

              I picked up one today at Home Depot. How easy is it to switch the legs so the knees bend correctly?

                IIRC, it's pretty easy to pop it all apart and rearrange the limbs properly.

                  Does the figure simply pull apart or does it require Boil and Popping?

                    It pops apart manually.

                        You're very welcome, and thanks also to Chris--he helped me find some last year.

                          If you are in an area that has a Menard's hardware store, they have the skeletons there for 3.99. These guys really get around.

                            I picked one up recently. Good News almost exact same with maybe a slightly darken eye paint. They were $5 still around here too. Oh yeah! Skeleton Dinosaur, cat and dog are also back!

                              I finally got one and he has two right femurs. Is this standard or did I get a dud?

                                I took it back and exchanged it for a good one. Glad to finally have it. I missed out last year. Now I need one of the dogs to do the werewolf.
