The latest piece of Mickey-themed Halloween merchandise to arrive in stores is a giant singing Mickey Jack-o’-Lantern inflatable.
Mickey Jack-o’-Lantern Inflatable – $176.98
The full official name of this new item is the “Mickey Mouse Emote Glow Airblown.” The “emote” part of the name refers to the fact that the lights making up Mickey’s face on the front of the inflatable will move to make it appear as though Mickey is talking and singing.
The inflatable is 7 feet wide and advertised to self-inflate within seconds. It is equipped with energy-efficient LED lights and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
The inflatable is a bright orange color, just like the classic Mickey Jack-o’-Lantern it represents. The middle circle with Mickey’s face has no lines to help make the lights more visible.
Instead of the whole inflatable being one large pumpkin, each individual ear has its own stem. There is also a large green stem on the top of the main circle. The rest of the inflatable is decorated with some smaller pumpkins and additional green vines around the base.
The moving mouth function is programmed to work in time with a pre-selected song, as though Mickey is the one singing it. The pumpkin will only sing the song “Monster Mash,” and does not have the ability to be programmed with any other song of choice.
You can see an example of the moving mouth and sound function in the video below, shared by designer @gemmy_industries on Instagram:
