@yeppers That is exactly where I found myself. $25 for the pair… maybe a silly seasonal indulgence. $25 each? There’s one born every minute. $97+ for one of these things?? I guess Martha delivers it personally and serves a nice brunch while I unbox it.
@shahnm@yeppers I was surprised when it didn’t show 2 for $25. Most likely didn’t cost $5 to make the piece of plastic in whatever 3rd world country sweat shop made it
@phendrick No, this is the Harrison Ford one. That’s what I guessed wrong yesterday - the Michael Douglas one.
There IS “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” but that’s not what this scene is from.
@Kyeh It was pretty meh, so not entirely inappropriate for this forum. And it had some scenes that might work for some here really into atrocities of Halloween.
Now I think I need to check that out. But far down on my to-do list.
@Kyeh Couldn’t resist, so here. But you might want to look away to remain innocent of this film.
(I think Martha or family are among the skulls/skeletons?)
@El_Oel No, but she took an X-Ray of her skull and had it extrapolated into a 3d-print. I think she published it on thingiverse, but I can’t find the URL.
Therefore, it is a wax copy of her skull.
/showme Martha Stewart pulling the leg off of a skeleton.
For what it’s worth, this was sold on QVC in September, 2019. Sold for $66. Couldn’t find anything later.
Video complete with Martha:
For what it’s worth, the one on Luminara does not come with a remote. If you poke around Amazon and eBay, there are a lot at $100 or asking price of $100, almost all are in black, all of them appear to not come with a remote. So Martha may have cornered the market for these with a remote. Great job to the meh buyers who scour the earth for these gems.
Yes, $25 for a seasonal gimmick looks high but back when these were available, it looks like a good price.
@dahobbs9 Looks like it. From the video, it sounds like these were selling fast. Hope the candle and remote works. Like the TrackRs may have to replace the battery on the remote. Maybe even the candle.
I really want it… but it’s actual wax?! Because I live in Louisiana and I store all my Halloween stuff in the attic… and other wax stuff up there has turned into puddles of goo…
@erinnkennedy Exactly. That and wax is easy to scar/scratch/damage/etc. I may still buy this but I’d be more likely to pull the trigger on a plastic skull.
@MostlyHarmless
Thank you for the reminder.
I loved The Dresden Files, both in print and on TV.
Not to even mention all the works of D. Adams as recalled by your screen name].
Figures that something I want to buy pops up the day after I canceled my membership because of the ongoing dearth of Meh! having had anything I might have been interested in buying.
Oh well, in for 2…

Thanks!
Blarg. Not a great skull. Maybe just buy a better one and stick e-candles in.
@brainmist
/showme Blarg. Not a great skull.
@mediocrebot Now you’re just being lazy, mediocrebot.
@mediocrebot @shahnm yeah, that’s actually a pretty decent skull.
Martha Stewart designed a wax skull? That’s pretty metal
@dpease She’s kinda scary herself too…
@dpease @robson
/showme metal Martha Stewart designing a wax skull
@mediocrebot Metal Martha Stewart looks an awful lot like regular Martha Stewart. Wait – Martha has been made of metal all along?!?
@dpease Martha Stewart designed AS a wax skull with fake candles
@mediocrebot @shahnm liquid metal
@shahnm Her stretch in the big house changed her.
@macromeh @shahnm
Metal mania biker chick Martha! 
She’s always been pretty hip, she just came out after her visit to The Big House!
The “list” prices for this are the spookiest part of this offering…
@shahnm At $25 apiece I’m kinda stunned, $97 is unimaginable. I was thinking it was $25 for the pair, which I was desperately trying to rationalize.
@yeppers That is exactly where I found myself. $25 for the pair… maybe a silly seasonal indulgence. $25 each? There’s one born every minute. $97+ for one of these things?? I guess Martha delivers it personally and serves a nice brunch while I unbox it.
@shahnm @yeppers Same here. At $12-$15 maybe, no way at $25.
@shahnm @yeppers I was surprised when it didn’t show 2 for $25. Most likely didn’t cost $5 to make the piece of plastic in whatever 3rd world country sweat shop made it
@shahnm maybe those were just to Spook everyone and they’ll drop the price later today
@shahnm @yeppers Why is it unimaginable when her entire career is based on manufactured fake premium products?
25 bones for just one skull?
I’ve already got a free one under my peonies!
@therealjrn And with the right tools and a motivated helper, you can have a couple of candles shoved in there for cheap too!
@therealjrn YuP
@shahnm @therealjrn light that puppy up with some tea candles
@dahobbs9 @shahnm @therealjrn I think I’ll use a different skull than the puppies '.
Groundhog is too small, but deer might do.
Okay, this time I’ve got the right movie reference.
Raiders of the Lost
ArkWax Skull.@Kyeh Romancing the Skull?
(a forgotten movie?)
@phendrick No, this is the Harrison Ford one. That’s what I guessed wrong yesterday - the Michael Douglas one.
There IS “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” but that’s not what this scene is from.
@Kyeh TKotCS – now that was (and still should be) a forgotten movie.
@phendrick I’ve never seen it. I guess it will stay that way.
@Kyeh It was pretty meh, so not entirely inappropriate for this forum. And it had some scenes that might work for some here really into atrocities of Halloween.
Now I think I need to check that out. But far down on my to-do list.
@Kyeh Couldn’t resist, so here. But you might want to look away to remain innocent of this film.
(I think Martha or family are among the skulls/skeletons?)
@phendrick
Thanks - I think I’ll pass.
Is this actually Martha Stewart’s skull??
No?
Meh
@El_Oel No, but she took an X-Ray of her skull and had it extrapolated into a 3d-print. I think she published it on thingiverse, but I can’t find the URL.
Therefore, it is a wax copy of her skull.
/showme Martha Stewart pulling the leg off of a skeleton.
@mediocrebot Great. Martha pulled the 3rd leg off of that skeleton. Now he doesn’t have a leg to stand on…
/giphy rimshot
@El_Oel Not her skull, her head is much bigger.
This could be Martha Stewart’s Skull but the the two reference links don’t mention her
Maybe her skull was shrunk and these are from the mould
I may as well Meh and buy one, I’ve bought every other candle they’ve sold here, what’s just One more.
This write-up really doubles down on “easy”
For what it’s worth, this was sold on QVC in September, 2019. Sold for $66. Couldn’t find anything later.

@rcwbbb so this Skull is definitely old news
@dahobbs9 Looks like it. From the video, it sounds like these were selling fast. Hope the candle and remote works. Like the TrackRs may have to replace the battery on the remote. Maybe even the candle.
@dahobbs9 @rcwbbb
Forget about the skull, I want the spider egg!!!
Ordered the black skull so I think I’ll replace the LED’s with red ones
@dahobbs9 I got the white skull. Swapping LED’s. Easy to do?
@dahobbs9 @rcwbbb Probably not.
Never imagined I’d ever get a chance to buy Martha Stewart’s skull.
@richrauch I think she should have quit while she was a head.
I really want it… but it’s actual wax?! Because I live in Louisiana and I store all my Halloween stuff in the attic… and other wax stuff up there has turned into puddles of goo…
@erinnkennedy Exactly. That and wax is easy to scar/scratch/damage/etc. I may still buy this but I’d be more likely to pull the trigger on a plastic skull.

@cfg83
Eggsactly!
Just no longer cost-effective and TBH, we already have too much dreck from Meh! laying around.
Also having recently transitioned to living on a fixed income makes prioritization massively more important.
