TD510 TORSO DROP FLAILER PoisonProps.com

The Poison Props TD510 Torso Drop Flailer is a commercial-grade pneumatic animatronic that conceals a torso character overhead before dropping it down suddenly with wildly flailing arms to startle passing patrons. The unit ships as a plug-and-play package, including the character, pneumatics, a pre-programmed controller, and a motion sensor, along with a complete audio package featuring a digital player, powered speaker, and scream effect. It mounts via a bracket that slides onto the top of a standard maze wall, requiring only AC power and a compressed air supply at approximately 100 psi to operate. Interchangeable character heads allow haunt operators to customize the look to match any theme.
