    I bought one this year and finally got around to fixing the legs and happily discovered all I had to do was turn the legs at the knee joint in order to get the knees to bend the correct way. I don't know if I just got lucky because I only have one or if others can be fixed this easily.

    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.

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

    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!

    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.

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

    It pops apart manually.

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

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

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

    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!
