Personally, I love it. I grew up watching all the Ray Harryhausen movies and the original Clash of the Titans was definitely one of them. Now while marketed for the release of the remake a few years back, Bubo was merely a cameo in that version, put in for fanfare sake. The fact they went out of their way to actually make a costume accessory out of it shows that they at least still thought more of those who watched and enjoyed the original all those years ago.

Now, Bubo here is made of foam latex, much like many of the large Halloween props are which you can buy at stores this time of the year (late-August to late-October). But he's more hard to the touch instead of squishy as those tend to be. He has two straps to help him stay perched on your shoulder as well, though I must admit they're a tad on the large side. He tends to wobble and fall over due to the straps not being able to hold tight enough to my smaller body frame. Shame they didn't make the straps smaller since they're a bit stretchy to compensate for this flaw, either that or put a couple of adjustments on. I'd dock stars off on it for that being sold as a costume accessory, but I mostly bought him for a display piece anyways.

Overall I'd give Bubo a 3/5 for his intended purpose, a 5/5 for the sheer geek factor.
