Jamungo spooks us with their latest Halloween Squadt

I suppose with Halloween coming up, I should be bracing myself for the onslaught of Halloween themed designer vinyl that will undoubtedly hit my inbox in the coming weeks. I don't really mind it though, since some of them are actually pretty cool, and while I might not be able to justify spending the cash on the vast majority of them, I sure I'll find a few to drool over. For example, take Jamungo's Squidts line.

I've always liked these Squidts. They're sweet but slightly demented, and that's always been a winning formula in my opinion. They usually come dressed for war, equipped with various weapons, and gear, all while maintaining their cute stature. Rather than dressing for war, this little Squidt is dressed to trick-or-treat.

Featuring a glow-in-the-dark skelsuit and helmet, the 6" CHIP Specimen 003 comes equipped with a candycorn axe--just the right color for the occasion. He also comes with the hefty price tag of $75, but with only 200 being made, you might be comforted by the fact that it's limited edition. They're also being shipped worldwide via FedEx and that's included in that price.

I found it a bit strange that although they went on sale today at the Project Squadt online store, they ask that you allow 4 to 5 weeks for shipping, which leads me to believe that they won't show up until after Halloween. If that doesn't bother you, I'd say go for it and keep in mind that you'll want to include a phone number with your order. FedEx doesn't ship without it.
