Bony Tony, also known as the Life-Size Talking Skeleton, was an animatronic sold by Spirit Halloween for the 2016 Halloween season. It resembled a posable skeleton with two glowing LED eyes, a moving jaw, and a lighted spine. It included a microphone that could be spoken into, to make the skeleton appear to be speaking. Alternatively, the skeleton could speak one of several pre-recorded phrases.
