Spirit Halloween Mars Attacks

A collection of brand new animatronics will be available from Spirit Halloween this year, including The Cryptkeeper from Tales from the Crypt and Slim from Killer Klowns from Outer Space. They’ll be joined by a Spirit Halloween Martian Warrior from Mars Attacks!

Earthlings beware – the first-ever life-size animatronic from Mars Attacks is flying into Spirit Halloween this season. Straight from the cult-classic Topps trading card series, the exclusive, officially-licensed Martian Warrior Animatronic will make any house look like it’s under an alien attack this Halloween.  

Standing at 6’5”, the Martian Warrior Animatronic comes to life with side-to-side movements of its signature enlarged head and an intergalactic space weapon that shoots mist to remind foes that it does not come in peace. Once he comes to life with his side-to-side head movement you better make sure you’re not in his crosshairs or you might get zapped!

The extraterrestrial collectible animatronic is available for $399.99 on SpiritHalloween.com and in all Spirit Halloween stores where décor is sold, now while supplies last. 

The Mars Attacks! animatronic is in stock and ready to ship right now from Spirit Halloween’s website, and you can expect your local store to open in the coming months.

Spooky season is right around the corner…
