We're almost a month and a half away til Halloween. Spirit Halloweens are popping up, retailers are putting out their halloween stuff, and places are already announcing their Halloween themed goods. So might as well start up the general now. Feel free to post your finds or fond Halloween memories.US Fast food wise:Mcdonalds - buckets againWendys- Frosty Frights V2Burger King- Scooby Doo toys with removable plastic masks along with a random monster guy behind a mask.
>>11558772No pics of the McDonalds buckets, maybe when it's closer to October.
>>11558772I was very excited for these until I actually saw them. Fuck talk about a step down from last year's addams family offerings. I wish they'ed been designed more like those old DC Looney Tunes heroes instead of nugget buddies.
>>11558779Burger King toys are now at best 3d a hollow blow molded figurine. I was worried they were gonna skip this in the U.S. for something lamer.
Fuck yes I fucking love Halloween I had been posting my Halloween lego stuff on the lego threads but they get lost among all the endless bitching
>>11558772>Got lazy and have not obtained the Frankenstein one from last year still.>There's a new setFUCK
>>11558778Man that's a bummer there's ugly but I guess you can leave the masks on?
>>11558779Those Addams family toys were awful
>>11558846Remember when they did Universal Monsters or Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors?Those were the days.
>>11558847Speaking ofanyone got the Treehouse of horror advent calendar from costco this year?
>>11558857>Treehouse of horror advent calendar from costco this year?.......I'm sorryThe what?
>>11558857I just googled and I found a amazon listing, have they been doing this multiple years now?
>>11558859
>>11558862Is that this years? Picrel I came across it when going through amazon, I dig these little guys
>>11558864Correct this is the current year one. First time they're doing it. They only did Xmas last time.
>>11558862There's like maybe 3 I wouldn't mind having but the rest are really blah
>>11558778>>11558779>>11558825reminds me of the McDonalds candy dispensers from back in the day with the masks, cept the SD ones are full body and no candy lol.
>>11558876
>>11558876These? I never cared for them because I never cared about nerds candy
>>11558877>Under the witch mask is an actual monsterI never knew that, that's the one I'd want.
I know there's different releases of these guys, but man, they could have whored out so many ideas that would have been better than a good chunk of shit toy ideas they've had for like 15+ years.
>>11558778There's a rumor that this year's buckets are gonna be regular pumpkins with different faces (like pic-related). Of course, it came from Facebook, so take with a HUGE grain of salt.
>>11558902I'd rather have those than the previous ones
man if it's any kind of retro release for the mcboo pails they are going to be impossible to getjust another hobby the normienet has ruined
>>11558909What are you talking about they did re release mcboo pails a couple years back (But did not have the cookie cutter lits)
>>11558915i mean if they promote it as an homage to the original mcboo pails (just the orange pumpkins)
>>11558918I mean yeah but I don't think it'd really help with returning customers hoping for a different one. I think that's why they made the ones with different type of colors and designs later on
>>11558779lol that's garbageAnyone remember the BK monsters/halloween that had the figures inside a coffin-like thing? The mummy was inside a yellow sarcophagus and the witch was inside a blue like cabinI only have those two. I'll try to fetch them from my folks' home when I go visit later this month.
>>11558902I'd like that. I skipped last year's buckets.
>>11558817I appreciate your posts, from one spooky season lover to another.You pick up the creator haunted house?>>11558862>>11558864Halloween calendars are a thing now?Don't want to spam the thread with replies, but I will say those BK toys look kinda great. Remind me of the old McDonald's ones where Ronald and friends were dressed up.
>>11559127Not quite, I like he figs and design but it's too expensive for what it is so I'm waiting on a sale, plus I already have the og haunted house.
>>11558772Already a spooky thread up >>11557376
>>11558864Does anyone have this? The listings I've found for it don't have many pictures and I wonder how close the actual figures are to the image.
>>11558864I hate to disappoint, but I’m pretty sure that’s all AI.
>>11559756That's what I was thinking, but is it just AI or did they use the 3D renders for the models to make it?
>>11558772Sweet. They're even better than last year's batch
>>11559443Yeah I only bought it because I found it for far cheaper at Costco. Much better price that way.Might be swinging out to pick up the wreath and truck sets they've put out along with the new BAM figs just to continue my Halloween builds.I envy your original haunted house, I let it slip by before and every time I see it I hem and haw over if it's worth the price. Even the newer "haunted" house they did I've considered instead. Least I have the Monster Fighters and Hidden Side castles to bulk things out.
I love these bendy figure homage figures NECA are doing. They're that really fun super generic monster look that you get to see around Halloween.
>>11560241I get it, it really is quite expensive but it's a fun build and you can do lots with it. I myself cannot justify getting other monster fighters sets as much as I would love to have all the monsters and the whole MF crew. Curiously enough I'm more willing to snag Hidden Side sets, I particularly want the school and the castle but my god those pricesI managed to get the scooby doo mystery machine and mansion so they should be arriving next week
>>11561557they're homaging the old imperial toys. I'm surprised they didnt do the same for Kong.
>>11558883NUGGERS!
>>11558902It be cool if they had real lids and not the fake ones that occupy space for no good reason.>>11558880The monster is named I am Hungry. He was a short lived cgi abomination similar to the honey comb beast.
Anyone know any good ghost toys? Not plushies, but more like an action figure. I like collecting monster toys in general and realize I dont have that could be considered a "ghost"
>>11561626>>11559443>>11558817I'm just now realizing how cool Halloween Legos can be thanks to thisAnd sadly it looks like theres only the Halloween barn and that haunted house that you can purchase at retail right now. Barn does look cool. I hope they bring back more monster sets
>>11562162I want the Hocus Pocus house so bad. It feels nice and Halloweeney.
>>11558817I liked them anon. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.
>>11562544Needs more spoopy trees.Ooh, a Lego haunted forest would be cool! Or pumpkin patch.
>>11562572Good idea. I was just playing around still working on ideas for Halloween moc. Spooky pumpkin patch sounds great. More trees as well. Gonna be a monster bash at the corn maze.
>>11558883We were blessed to get them when we did
These fucked hard.
There's a new fun looking kids toyline rolling out now featuring violent undead dismemberment.
>>11562960Shame their only means of advertising is some convuluted roblox tie in game.Those designs are quite fun and their big vehicle feels like something out of street sharks. Kind of related, did you ever hear of "Ultra Zombies" ? Apparently it was some huge app game turned media franchise that really blew up in Europe and LatAm. They've since had a whole bunch of merch release, incouding this fun line of modular zombies. Unfortunately these never made it stateside.
>>11562960I had to go look these up and wow, there's something very 90's about them. Love the vehicle design too. Could definitely be used with TMNT stuff if you wanted.
>>11559127>Halloween calendars are a thing now?Ive only just seen one myself this week, so maybe its a growing fad or tradition i guess. Idk, marking days off of the calender worked pretty well for us growing up.
>>11562960I looked these up and they seem fun. I hope i run across them since id grab a couple.
i freaking loved this line and this was my favourite figure from itit was probably the last time toy hunting was fun for me, right before TRU kicked the bucketanyone else a fan of the grossery gang figures?
>>11558772Wndys is wild. Never was in one and never will be able to but they do manage to be very sympathetic.
>>11562162Halloween Lego are rad. Every year my daughter and I put together a Halloween Tree, and a trick or treating town. Lego Halloween is the best.
>>11563336
>>11563340
>>11563341
>>11563342
>>11563235It's hard not to be. I kept hoping the line would make it big but it eventually died too. Sad, it was really fun while it lasted.
>>11563167That looks pretty rad. Glad we still got toys with original IPs.
I've picked up some stuff from Spirit. I got the NES-inspired Friday the 13th mask and axe (also the full costume, not pictured). I also picked up these Gus Fink plushies. I'm not big on plushies, but these were very cool. I got two of the big ones, and three of the little blind bags. Wish I had gotten more of those as they seem to be completely gone, I only found them at one Spirit out of the three in the area, and haven't seen them since. Also got a couple of his pens.
Got a Lemax thing this year. Not exactly a toy, but I have it in my Halloween toy display now. It's basically a haunted Blockbuster.
>>11563325Only spotted in Target's so far.
did anyone pick up the KO madballs at Target? i like em more than the most recent actual Madballs, which were garbage
>>11564236I am very happy with it. It's my first Lemax thing. My wife actually got one as well.
>>11563568I fucking love the Gus Fink plushies and pens, but I've only been able to get the pumpkin head so far. Been to 3 different stores and haven't seen the first blind bag >>11563569I love lemax and would get more but god damn do they take up space. I prefer their trick or treat houses and anything pumpkin patch >>11564247Where were those at? I'm digging the orange and purple one
>>11558772For the frosty frights, I want purple meltin, the green chilly gilly, maybe blue coldsnap and blue ice patch.>>11563568I creave the blue jason retro mask,the gus finks plushies are tempting.
Got some Halloween Kewpie dolls from a blindbox thing, I may set up my fall toy display early this year
>>11563781I want some but they never showed up in my local store. They do still have those stretchy toy hands. I'm surprised those arent bigger sellers. Be sure to check the halloween aisles right about now. Theu really stepped up their game as far as party favors go.https://youtu.be/pvEThxhDz-w?si=jcOnx4dGXohDGWeN
>>11562960Thanks for the heads up anon, these look fucking awesome Just another heads up to anyone interested, they are apparently in stock online at target right now. It looks like all of them are, at least in the states, where I am. Think I'll get a few, thanks anon!
My lego scooby doo mansion arrives soon I hope, so excited for it
>>11563568How much was the mask?
>>11567322They're only $20 if you can find them. I don't recommend ordering online from Spirit, they don't provide any packing material and I had a different mask get damaged in shipping.
designs are out
>>11567643Oh shit, those are fantastic! They aren't starting till the 21st though???
These little bastards are out in the wild.>>11563336CMF S.14/Monsters was criminally underappreciated.
>>11567703What's worse is it was underappreciated then, and now they're stupid expensive because of shitty "investors" in Lego.
>>11567721I ended up with a squad of cheerleader zombies because they hit pretty deep clearance at a couple of places.
>>11567703i want that one so bad but i don't want to end up with any of the other sets. fucking hate blind boxes>>11567695this is from canada, i assume the US release will start much earlier
>>11567796My jealousy is immense.I could scarcely find the series when it was out, and being poor and in college at the time, I only bought the specter, the fly, and the sasquatch.I really just need to bite the bullet and buy the rest as cheap as possible.
>>11567807They're coded, friend, aside from the Beetlejuice chase. Look for the pumpkins on the exposed portion of the inner wrapper.https://meenyminimo.co/series/66/view?brand=1
>>11567903wingo, cheers bud
>>11567643>> fake lidsugh why do 4/5 of them have random Xs on their faces?
>>11568344Child friendly scars
>>11567643I like those a lot. Hope I can get the full set easy enough.
>>11567703What are those?
>>11569522Miniverse Make It Mini 2025. https://shop.mgae.com/products/mgas-miniverse-make-it-mini-halloween-2025-beetlejuice-mini-collectibles
>>11563569I love it
>>11563569I need that. The colors are perfect. I miss renting movies for Halloween.
>>11559754this is obviously AI and I shudder to imagine what temu garbage would get shipped out if you bought it
Thanks OP for pulling the trigger early. Collecting Halloween stuff is fun each year. Each year hot wheels does a Halloween set I adore just for the card back alone.
>>11569872okay that card art goes hard. It be even crazier if it glowed in the dark.
alright scooby set is online
>>11571183Well officially there's no room for any more halloween Lego
>>11571183I like that greenhouse
Some more of my Halloween figs. I don't usually go for those dumpster vinyls, but that one seemed cool. Very happy with these Mondo Ghostbusters figures.
>>11569872I don't buy Hot Wheels normally, but these Halloween ones keep grabbing my eye. The packaging is wonderful. It's every good thing about the season there on a damn card.The cars are neat too, I just get one a year to be an example.
>>11571183Your post reminded I spotted a Mystery Machine themed SW gunship bootlego set on aliexpress. I am painfully tempted to get it
picrel and the madballs knockoffs at target are both cozy. I need to get a treasure chest of some sort to put all my Halloween toys in.
>>11558772>>11558778>McDonalds Boo Buckets from 2024 were absolute shit
>>11567643Not as awful as last year's boo buckets
>target knockoff madballs>boo buckets>frost frights>tiny mights universal and scream keshi>burger king scooby doo>treehouse of horror advent>lego BAM figures>hot wheelsdid I miss anything? these are each a decent reason to get out and celebrate halloween this month
>>11571204You can buy hover shelves, you're making up excuses. Now relapse.
>Do a Instacart order from Costco>Throw in one of the Treehouse of Horror advent calendars>Gets delivered by a 6' 3" redheaded goth girl giantessHappy Halloween.
>>11558902this years buckets still dont have lids. and there are 2 new ones. enjoy these pieces of shit McBullshit buckets
>>11569872I have not found a single one of these between 2 targets and like 3 walmarts. Where the fuck are they?
>>11579338I've only seen them at grocery stores, never at Walmart/target. You'd be better off just buying them from a scalper on eBay.
>>11579338Crest grocery stores
>>11558772I finally got all twelve Frosty Fright figures. Theyre even better than last year's.Remember the code on the bag>NGFor normal color>NGAFor neon
>>11576417>ywnbaw
Not sure if anyone saw/cares but the neon Frosty chase figures have alternate cards/stickers which is a great little touch compared to last years
>>11584652That's neat, actually.
>>11582099>>11584652It's absolutely based
