Forum Novelties unisex adults Zombie Flamingo Party Supplies, Multi, Standard US

While this zombie flamingo is not exactly intimidating, it IS amusing. I wish that the pink on the tail was a bit pink-er, and that the skeletal painting was a bit more obvious, and perhaps glow in the dark. But other than that, it is pretty cool, and since it didn't cost me a whole lot, I am satisfied with it. The baleful red eye is what does it. I ordered a pair of skeleton flamingoes to go with it, since one flamingo is a rather lonely bird. They tend to hang in flocks, so a flock mine shall be, just, not ordinary ones. The flamingo comes as promised, and the shipping was certainly quick. It came in a big box and was shipped well. The legs are two metal rods, a bit thicker than wire clothes hangers, well, ok, twice as thick, stiff. They will hold up well enough. The flamingo itself is not large, but with the metal legs, it stands high enough that it is seen. It comes with the metal rods taped together and you have to pierce them through the two holes that are drilled for them in the bird's nether region. I had to push rather firmly, as the holes were not fully drilled through, and the 'legs' would not stay in the bird. When I forcefully pushed them through, then they worked fine. So don't be afraid to push with some force behind it if you encounter the same issue. It is a fine addition to our landscaping. I am sure it will get some comments come trick or treating for Halloween, but I might keep it out for other occasions as well. I wonder if it might fade, though? Or the plastic become brittle, as it can when exposed over long to sun. Some does. I also think these could be magnets for being appropriated by hooligans, but we don't get many so I don't worry overmuch.

I love our Zombie Flamingo. We named him Lee from Telltale's The Walking Dead game (we have two "alive" pink flamingos that are named Clementine and Sheriff Rick), and we purchased him a zombie garden gnome to keep him company and so he doesn't feel misunderstood. He was the very first lawn ornament we got for our garden, so I might be a bit biased, but... I love him.I have to admit, though, ZF's life didn't start easy. When he arrived, he had no legs. WHAT'S A FLAMINGO SUPPOSED TO DO WITHOUT LEGS?! I mean - have you seen a flamingo? Their legs are a very notable part of their anatomy - there's even a yoga pose named after the unique position they contort themselves into - so it was distressing. Also inconvenient... how was I supposed to get him in my garden if I couldn't stand him up (sure, we found a rusty hanger that we cut legs out of it [and it actually looks much more appropriate then something shiny and new])? I wrote to Amazon about this (actually the letter was from Lee himself, I just translated plastic flamingo speak into english), and they very kindly reimbursed me and sent Lee an email back. Seriously. That's some exceptional customer service right there.Despite standing in the sunshine all day every day for many, may summers his colors haven't faded. We played with the idea of coloring his eyes with glow-in-the-dark paint, but Lee is quite happy with his home amongst the hosta, Clementine and Sherrif Rick, and the twenty plus gnomes he can lurk behind.

didn't expect much, so i wasn't terribly disappointed. the colors are DEFINITELy not like the stock picture--grey (not bone colored in any way), a very dark pink, and red for the eye. i knew that i would almost certainly have to repaint it, which i am currently in the process of.the leg holes leave a lot to be desired. the included legs--which i DID receive--just rattle around. good thing i planned on using a thicker, stainless steel welding rod for the legs, like i have done with my other lawn flamingos, but if you don't have access to stuff like that, you could always wrap some duct or electrical tape around the end before sticking the included wire leg into the flamingo.the main reason this is 4 stars for me is that while the paint job sucked and the legs are horrible is that the cast itself is actually pretty good. yes, it could be bigger, but it actually is a decent fit, size-wise, compared to my existing, non-zombie lawn flamingos.

Item is as described, but buyer be warned there are two things to watch here.1. It is smaller than what you think. ( or what I thought anyway...) so , I was a little sad to see how small it was when I got it.2. More importantly, this did NOT eat any of the brains I was expecting it too. This was to be my master plan to not have to give out all of my candy purchased a couple of days ago. I figured if it could do the job even 1/2 as good as the larger of its zombie kind, that I would have no problem saving some candy for myself. Alas, it didn't eat any brains at all and therefore I had to had candy out until it was almost gone.At the end of the night there were a few pieces left over for me, so I guess all is well. I did NOT however, give any to the lazy Flamingo on my lawn...

Okay I ordered 4 of these flamingos and three of them had all the legs. So two of them are sharing legs currently. Thus lowers the star rating. Not that I expect amazon will actually do anything like send me a set of legs. The colors are good, the size is not any smaller then a standard pink flamingo. If you are expecting life size then you will be disappointed. They are solid construction. The leg holes are the right size but not deep enough so I had to drill them out which means they sit a bit lower. The manufacture mark is in black on the side not the bottom but is small print. I say if you want need crave lust after plastic flamingos then these are your All Hallows eve flamingos.

Painted design, as others noted, was not clear or was chipped and uneven. Too bad, because it's a cute idea. Not recommended, especially given the price.

I am absolutely in love with these!

My niece requested this as a gift. I thought it was pricey but she wanted it and it suited her taste.

My parents love them will be getting more

The perfect, slightly-subtle Halloween item for our front garden!
