Very Nice Details
This little skull superseded my expectations. Im very impressed by the details of this product. Not some cheap piece of junk fake looking skull. It looks and feels like the life size skull.
Being about the size of your fist, two of these will make great little desk speakers. My plan is to be able to pop off the top of the cranium to reveal speaker jack and wire and let the 4ohm 3watt speaker sound out. -
Great value!
Super pleased with this skull. Great value, arrived quickly. Purchased it to use as a model for carving, but it looks cool just sitting on my desk. No regrets!

Artist's Opinions
I got this to use as a drawing and sculpting reference, and it is great size and level of detail for that sort of thing! My only gripe is that the spring holding the jaw shut is pretty firm, so if I try to open the jaw I am worried I am going to break it, but it doesnt bother me that much.
Makes for a very cool desk ornament as well :) -
Halloween
We were very happy with this purchase. We bought them as a prop for our centerpieces at a charity Halloween party. People loved the decor and we were able to raise more money from the raffles to get them as prizes.

Artist
The amount of detail and accuracy is exactly what I was looking for. The size of it makes it easy to handle and observe up close in my hand while drawing. Also the price is perfect for an artist looking for high quality with a small budget. This has helped me understand the anatomy of the human skull much more than anything else I've come across. I am thrilled with this product! I give it five stars!

Pleased Customer
So I purchased this miniature skull model and I couldn't be happier with the results. Gave me all the level of detail I needed without taking up as much space as a larger version would. Great product!

Cute
When I bought this I did not expect much. I mean who can get a decent skull for $10? But I was pleasantly surprised. The fact that it was not just one solid piece, but able to break down into three pieces was also another surprise. It may not be life-sized but this will work just fine
