Let me start by saying this little skeleton is ADORABLE. At 16 inches tall, it's bigger than expected (bonus spook points!) and has that perfect aged-bone color – not too stark white, not too yellow. The posable joints are a game-changer! I had mine 'climbing' my bookshelf like a creepy intruder, and the adjustable chin even let me make it 'scream' at trick-or-treaters.

BUT...the arms pop off if you breathe on them wrong. Like, mine did a dramatic 'detachable limbs' act straight out of the package. The ball-and-socket joints work...when they feel like it. Pro tip: A dab of hot glue on the rib cage connection stops the Great Arm Rebellion of 2023.

Perfect for: Halloween trees (meet my skeleton twins Larry and Mo!), wreath accents, or desk decor that scares your coworkers. Not perfect for: High-traffic haunted houses where enthusiastic teens might turn your skeleton into an improv marionette.

Final verdict? At this price, I'll forgive its flimsiness – just handle like a relic from an actual tomb. My kids adore it so much it became a year-round roommate...though now it's 'borrowing' my good pens in increasingly suspicious poses.
