Morris Costumes Animated Zombie Halloween Prop Decoration with Fog

Ok so like others have said, it needs a little work to really function well, but it does function well and looks great.For one, the arms have no shape, so some filler needs to be added to give them form. (I used the small blow up bags that come in Amazon packaging - free!) Also, the shirt doesn't really affix to the collar of the head, and very easily exposes the black framework underneath it, killing the effect. So some double-sided tape made from folded-over duct tape did the trick there. Also, while I wouldn't say it was fragile exactly, it's kind of rickety in the way it goes together. Indoors it would probably be just fine, but any kind of wind gust will pretty much put it out of action. This is because it's made to be disassembled and packed into a smaller container when not in use, so the frame underneath the shirt isn't put together solidly at all, the pieces all just kinda sit there not really fastened together. There's also a metal rod supporting the head, and that in particular has been a pain because even a wind gust that doesn't knock it over causes the whole thing to pivot backwards, enough for the rod to fall out. The same thing happens if you push too hard on the head when trying to insert the rod - the body pivots, the framework separates under the shirt, and now you have to almost put the whole thing back together again. The rod mounting point was made even worse because I weatherproofed the electronics and moving parts of the frame with duct tape and a large plastic bag, and without realizing it when I did it, I made it more difficult to get to the hole where the rod goes in. Unfortunately we've had three or four days of heavy winds in Las Vegas during October, which has caused me to literally lay on the ground in front of my house getting the zombie back into position and getting that godforsaken rod back into the hole under its head.Other than that that though, it does look and function great, so what the hell, five stars. With my added paint highlights to it (accenting the bloody parts and a general drybrushing of the face to bring out more detail) it's a great addition to the front yard.

There were a few nice surprises when I opened up the box and put him together:The skin tone on the one we received is a bit more grey than the one pictured and I think it looks even better.The power requirements are very low, and the included DC adapter is only 6 watts.When we plugged him in and turned him on, there is virtually no noise when the head turns; certainly nothing audible until you get very close. This guy isn't giving himself away before someone has a chance to walk up next to him.One of the other reviewers mentioned using Velcro strips to keep the shirt in place around the neck - did that. Hat tip to you!Personally, I'd recommend stuffing the shirt with air packs (Amazon uses them for padding all the time). Newspaper has memory and could be flattened with a little bit of rain. Speaking of which...Another reviewer mentioned that this is intended for indoor use only. I'm going to try and get around this since the design looks easy enough to work with. The motor and DC adapter are what make this susceptible to the elements, but both are small enough to cover with a large Ziploc bag (1 gallon size should do it). The rest of the zombie is plastic and cloth so I'm going to take a chance and leave this guy out. I'll wait until Halloween night to connect the fog machine however.Very happy with this purchase! Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer.Cheers!

I typically do not write negative reviews but I had to do so for this product. I would not recommend buying this product especially not from this company. First of all I paid extra for shipping and it showed up late, and definitely not at the time that it was supposed to get here. When I complained to company and asked for my money back for shipping they refuse to reimburse me. I noticed they did not even ship out the product until a few days after I had ordered it which to me defeats the purpose of expedited shipping. Once I received the product it was broken in several places and it did not work as it is intended to. The head doesn't turn without hitting the power connectorI had to try to make it work and even then I could never get it to turn the head the way it should. Furthermore the hose that comes with the mask did not fit the hole in the mouth. In other words the hose is too large for the mouth. the body itself is flimsy and does not stay together or stand up by itself once put together also it breaks easily.

Bought this from Amazon and it was fullfilled by YUKLON on Sept.14,2016. I have my order number and Amazon strangely has no record of it.I was missing the appropriate connectors to be able to hook it up to the correct 400 fog machine recommended so I had problems hooking it up. I also seem to be missing the correct transformer to get the zombie to move it's head. I need a transformer and the fog machine adaptors so I canuse this great halloween prop. I would be more than happy to upgrade my review is I can get it working. I'm very disappointed which is rare with anything connected to Amazon.
