I went back to Bed Bath & Beyond and saw they got two of there in stock and I thought why not show it in action since it’s new for Halloween this year. I didn’t buy it since it’s basically cheapened down for many reasons but just wanted to show it off for fun since they finally got in stock for Halloween. The one I demonstrated here at the store is a low pitch (I believe) and made it activate by waving my hand near the motion sensor.
This is the Gemmy Halloween Haunted Skull Radio from the halloween skull radio series, and this one is apparently the downgraded version. It’s quite a huge disappointment that Gemmy has made of this radio because the songs are shorter than they’re supposed to be, the speaker quality is good but not the best compared to the previous older models (like the Bluetooth ones for example), and it feels so cheaply made for those particular reasons.
Another thing that’s embarrassing about it is when I played with both of these at my local store, their dial buttons were apparently broken and they only activate when they’re in motion sensor mode where you would have to wave your hand near it to make it play it’s songs which is definitely downgraded and a very lazy design of this Skull Radio made by Gemmy and this has been happening to these nowadays since 2020. They didn’t work with their dial buttons at all besides only working with the motion sensor which is just terrible quality.
Also, this is the Bed Bath & Beyond model of the downgraded Haunted Skull Radio that is in stock at all Bed Bath & Beyond stores where the lights are swapped to be green for the second song and blue for the third song it plays. There is a At Home Model of this new Skull Radio that has its lights swapped where it flashes blue for the second song and flashes green for the third song instead but still the exact same, completely downgraded (cheapened down) Gemmy Skull Radio. The older models from 2017-2019 are way better and most recommended than the newer ones like this one that just have less functions and not really worth buying, especially how broken they can be just like the both of ones I saw at the store when I recorded this.
Gemmy really needs to improve on these and make them like the older models where their songs are longer, have better speaker quality, and maybe even add newer Halloween songs that would go perfect for these Skull Radios along with still including the older songs that are used for these as well. But it’s still cool though, even though it’s not really the best. Enjoy!
