Target has these sets in the seasonal section that's getting ready for Halloween as I type this at the beginning of September. There's a second polybag with a car and the zombie driver but I haven't seen it anywhere yet. I am less interested in that set. The Ghost set has 33 parts listed on the polybag and the price was $3.99. There are 3 extra parts and the ghost has a glow in the dark outer body. You get the ghost and you can build an ok looking clock. It's like a grandfather clock but the thing would be better with some sides on the lower half. I've seen better clocks by fans but they usually have a larger number of parts to get their look and I understand a set has to keep the part list down for price. The good parts are those 5 reddish brown cheese slopes, the 1x2 reddish brown tile, the 2 1x1 brick with a stud on the side and that 5 link chain in black. I wouldn't mind a bunch of those chains. The rest of the parts are mostly reddish brown and common but handy.
The ghost on the left is the new ghost body and the other is the old ghost body. The new body is less transparent than the old which makes the folds more pronounced. The new ghost has a weird looking bit sticking out of the back of the head. I like the smoothness of the old ghost better. The face is less happy on the new ghost. I guess it's hard to look scary with a smile on your face. There's a black minifig head on a white torso with white hands. All those parts could come in handy. I picked up a couple so I could add some more ghosts to my stock. I'll have to think of something to put them in.
