Videoville Villages, Actually a bit more excited with the Christmas Line this year. Duck Hunt is for sure a buy for me. I like this new refresh to the older Lemax Duck Hunt (except for maybe the bit that it's $10 for 5 shots, especially when the rides have much cheaper prices in cents; maybe a mistake on Lemax's end). But what I REALLY want to see is a re-release or re-vamp (Because I don't think Lemax has ever done a re-release) of Spooky Town Shooting Range. I've been on the look out for one of these forever, but to find one at a reasonable price, let alone fully working, is nigh impossible. This piece needs to come back! I'm also planning on picking up Skeeball for sure and possibly the Runaway Sleigh. Runaway Sleigh doesn't perform as cool as I would've thought, but I absolutely love the look of it. I'm also mulling over the Topsy Turvy as it's just plain spectacular. I was thinking about adding it to my Smooching Skeleton Theme Park to replace my dying Ghost Around, but of course, Topsy Turvy isn't Halloween themed. And I've seen people paint pieces to look Halloween, but I know I don't have the patience to do that. However, this one looks SO COOL, that I might just work. I originally wanted to add the Spin Out to my Halloween Theme Park, but it's one that REALLY needs to be turned off properly with the switch and not just powered down on a plug strip. I've only run into one other piece that makes you use the switch 100% and that is the Rest In Pieces Mausoleum. All the other ones that "say" you need to use the switch, I haven't needed to and they continue to move. I know it isn't recommended for most rides to not use the switch, but I've had pretty good success with just the power off method for most. All in all, pretty light year for me with the Lemax collection. And I don't mind as I have so many great pieces and technically I don't need anymore :) Can't wait until these finally get released! vgv
Hi ya vgv, I hope they address the price on the Duck Hunt too - seemed like 2025 prices in 1945 lol. I was wondering yesterday how easy it may be to customise the DH for Spooky Town - I had visions of Leon from Resident Evil 4 popping off on zombies lol. Runaway Sleigh appeals to me as it's visually striking but compact with it's depth, allowing for rides within a Christmas village without overpowering the theme of a small village should you be limited for space. Maybe give the TT a repaint and see if you enjoy doing it? You can even buy lightbulb paint so you could make the colours under the top more spooky 🤔 Still, maybe 2026 they will do a ST version if not - Ghost Around and the Round Up were basically the same so fingers xd. Thanks, Pete
Hi Violet, These have only just been announced and should become available around July. Unfortunately I'm not too aware of where would supply Serbia, but you could have a look on the Lemax website at the European stockists to see if Serbia is an option for any of them - www.lemaxcollection.com/where-to-buy Worst case scenario, you could purchase from a reseller on eBay that offers worldwide shipping. Hope this helps. Pete
So much new carnival items for Christmas - nothing new for Halloween :( Side note - I bet the Topsy Turvy is spinning faster than it would in real life lol
I reckon Michael's will get an exclusive Spooky Town ride this year - seems very odd for Lemax to not produce something new for ST. As for the Topsy Turvy, I kind of hope it is lol. My first thoughts when seeing that spin around at 18000 rpm was "that's gonna break" 😬😂
Definitely buying a few of these pieces. Thanks for the video!
No trouble, glad you liked 👍

Carole Towne might have a Halloween Carnival ride

I get to see very little of Carole Town over here the UK.
