Adriana L.9/17/2025Lovely! I would recommend this figure for a 3, 4 or 5 inch figure display only. Please note that the overall dimension of the full display is roughly about an open hand palm in diameter so it does take up a bit more space than most of the other figures I have reviewed. The face is somewhat thin, but because the action of what he is doing makes the old man "face down towards the chair" the action in motion overshadows the face of the man which is good when using it in a 5 inch figure display. In my opinion; the best view would be to place this inside or outside any building and somewhat apart from any other figures. The issue here is not so much the old man but the fact that the chairs being repaired are not scaled properly so they are much smaller than what would be the appropriate scale to a 10 or 12cm (3-4 inch scale), and they are extremely visible. If this figure is placed somewhere in the Nativity that does not have many people around but maybe a "visit by some children while crafting the chair"; it will look amazing. None of this takes away from the figure itself. Just pointers for the user to better assess. Nevertheless, it's another beautiful figure/display.

Gareth S.11/29/2022This figurine is of extremely high quality, I did not get same colour of the boat as shown on the picture but I have re-painted it and looks really good. Highly recommend this product.
