Rite Aid: looking SPOOKY Skeleton Toy Figures

Did someone say "Sepia tones"?

Some of the skeletons are very wonky and warped, making them difficult to stand-up, unless they are leaning up against something. They are made of a hard plastic, and some of the figures have some plastic flecks. Overall, at $2 for 16 figures, not bad in a pinch.

Spirit Halloween: Zombiepocalypse Action Set AKA "Green Zombie Family"

They were marked at $4.99, but they were actually rang up to at $2.

Here they are in the rotting flesh!

Psychopath Guy. With severed head a human flesh mask.

The Kids. Is she scared, or just hungry?

Hello Zombie Nurse. With arm in tow.

The Biter. Contrary to popular belief, zombies will eat more than brains.

The Freaks. No armed man and zombie Hulk Hogan with a flesh tear?

Tripod. Mangy mutt, zombie dogs seem to retain their speed in death.

AND, Barrel Full O' Zombie!

Overall a fantastic set of zombies! And for less than 25 cents a piece, you really can't go wrong here! Stay tuned for more new zombie minifigure reviews.

Pop Culture League Challenge: Here Comes Halloween! - 2016 Halloween Toys in Review

Pop Culture League Challenge: Here comes Halloween!

Last week, the League was all about fears and frights, and we’re going to wrap up the Halloween theme this week with one last topic. This week’s challenge to the Pop Culture League is…

Here comes Halloween!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

The League is always open to new members! Got a blog? Write a post in response to the weekly challenge, and you’ll be included. It’s that easy!

Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote, or you can also link to them on social media.

By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!

(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for contributing to The League.)

This will likely be my last post for a while. I wanted to post every day in October, but alas, I'm too dag gum busy! To wrap up the final Pop Cultue League challenge for Halloween I thought I would share my thought on 2016's Halloween toy must haves.

LEGO Series 16

There were 3 must have's from LEGO Series 16, and I finally found the ones I was looking for:

Cyborg Woman, Devil Boy, and Vamp Boy

Imaginext Series 7

Fisher Price Imaginext really knocked it out of the park again! I really want almost all of these, but two of them are way too good to pass up for sure, Pumpkin Ghost, and A FREAKING GHOSTBUSTER!!!!

Check out that PKE Reader!

Awesome Proton Pack!

Playmobil Mystery Fi?ures series 10

THE STILT GHOST!!! Halloween 2016's unofficial mascot! Just look at him!

Stilt Ghost

Isn't he glorious!? The only really Halloweeny figures, unless you count the cool wizard and the new robot, which was included in my submission for Day 24 of the #Miniween2016 challenge on Instagram.

Mechanical Monstrosity

When I first tried to put this guy together his arm shot off and I couldn't find it for weeks!

Hot Wheels 2016 Halloween Cars

Normally Mattel's Hot Wheels releases 5 special Kroger/Fred Meyer exclusive Halloween versions of their vehicles, and sometimes Target also has their own exclusives. This year we saw 8 new Halloween cars! Check them out!
