7 FT Alien in Test Tube: The One Nobody Else Has
Easier than I thought
I was shocked how fast it went up. Literally plugged it in and walked away while it inflated.
For the competitive street
If you're the mom who's tired of blending in with everyone else's yard, get this. My neighbor actually stopped her car to ask where I found it, and now three other houses are hunting for something different too.
Wasn't sure it was worth it
I sat on this for three days because I kept thinking maybe I should just get another pumpkin. Then I ordered it and my neighbor asked where I got it before I even had it staked down. Worth every penny.
Kids now use it as a landmark
My seven year old told his friend "the house with the alien in the tube" when they asked where to get dropped off for a playdate. That has never happened before. We're the white one with the tree. I put this up three weeks ago and it's already how the neighborhood identifies our house. The other parents have started asking where I got it.
Actually glows like the photo
I was nervous about the lighting washing out in my actual yard, but it looks exactly like the pictures once the sun goes down completely.
Perfect for our corner
I work full time and my husband travels, so I needed something I could actually get up by myself before dark. This took me maybe twenty minutes including the stakes, and now our sci-fi corner finally has the centerpiece we've been looking for.
Neighbors actually stop to ask
I bought it for the front yard but didn't expect the actual conversations. Three neighbors stopped by the first week to ask where I got it.
If you want the standout house
If you're the mom who actually decorates and you're sick of your yard looking like everyone else's, get this. My neighbor has the 12 foot skeleton, the house across the street has the same ghost, and now we have the alien in the test tube and kids walk over from two streets away to see it. It's the one thing on the block nobody else thought to buy.
Worried about the photos
I was sure it wouldn't look as bright in my yard as the listing, but it absolutely does once the sun goes down.
The 7 ft alien nobody else on the street has. One outlet, four steps.
Your kid points at your house now.
Four houses bought the same skeleton. Three have the same ghost. Two have the same giant pumpkin. Your wreath looks like an apology.
This is a 7 foot alien standing inside a clear test tube on a silver base that glows from the top ring and the bottom. LED rings cycle through colors. The alien stands still and lights up.
One outlet, four steps. Zip the bottom zipper, plug it in, hook the tie-downs, drive the stakes into the ground. Stakes and ropes are in the box. The built-in fan inflates it.
It glows brightest once it is fully dark. At dusk on a lit street it reads dimmer than the night photos, which is true of every lit inflatable and worth knowing before you order. The base is 4 ft by 4 ft, so plan the spot before it arrives. When the season is over it deflates and folds down flat for storage.
The Thing Nobody Else Has
Four houses on your street already bought the same skeleton, the same ghost and the same giant pumpkin. This is a 7 foot alien standing in a glowing test tube on your front lawn, and it takes one outlet and four steps to put up.

7 FT Alien in Test Tube Halloween Inflatable Questions
It glows brightest once it is fully dark. At dusk on a lit street it reads dimmer than the night photos, which is true of every lit inflatable and worth knowing before you order. The LED rings in the top and base cycle through colors and show up clearly once the sun is down, but they don't wash out the street at 6:30 when there's still ambient light.
7 feet puts the top of the test tube above an adult's head when standing next to it. From the street or the end of the driveway, which is the angle that matters, it stands taller than your front door and commands the yard. The 4 ft by 4 ft base gives it presence, and the glowing tube with the alien inside reads clearly from across the street once it's dark.
Stakes and ropes hold it in normal conditions, not in high wind. Like any inflatable, take it down when a storm is coming. The tie-down strings and stakes are in the box, and most of the setup time is staking it properly, which keeps it standing through wind and weather that isn't a full event.
Setup runs four steps and one outlet. Zip the bottom zipper closed, plug it in and let the built-in fan inflate it, hook the tie-down strings, and drive the stakes into the ground. Most of the setup time is the staking, not the inflating. One tip: make sure the internal zippers on the alien figure are fully closed, or the tube will not reach full inflation.
When the season is over it deflates and folds down for storage. It packs into a box that fits in a garage corner, basement shelf, or closet until next October.
