Are there any good robot animatronics for Halloween? I want a wendigo to walk around my yard.

I'm looking at the "air reservoirs" in the chest and body that you can apparently fucking shoot or stab to force an E-stop.

They literally say you (could) shoot the thing as an actual emergency stop to brake all the actuators.

Wild.

Given the insane progression in the Home Depot Halloween displays I estimate it’s about two years off - twenty foot tall animatronic skeletons are now table stakes.
