Customer Reviews

From an artistic standpoint, this item is fabulous. It adds a catchy personality to any room. The function falls a bit short of excellence. For EACH pose desired you have to tighten the screws on the joints so it will hold. This might not be a huge problem for some people but I've come across cheap toys that don't require as much labor as this. It does become flimsy when the joints are loose. As a result a slight bump on the table can cause the entire figure to collapse. I wish the light switch was somehow placed on the base to make it easier to turn the light off/on. Instead it must be reached almost halfway down towards the power plug. The one I received came with a few defects but this might just be a fluke. Overall, I expected better but it just looks too cool to not have it sit around in my room. I would not purchase another one however I'm definitely keeping the one I already own.

It looks pretty cheap and it's very difficult to maneuver it into positions with the hex-wrench--the joints and appendages move around while tightening and loosening making it frustrating or impossible to get it into and keep the desired shape. I paid almost $30 for it but in hindsight would only pick it up if it were around $15.
