    This skeleton is ok. The parts don’t fit super well together and you can tell the quality isn’t great. I got it on sale and it was still probably not worth the money.

    Product looks nice, but has never worked properly since purchase. The jaw has never worked, the speaker is defective with sound cutting in/out and volume is barely audible regardless of adjustment of volume. Connection points of arms/legs are flimsy and screws will become stripped out if you try to tighten to tight. Customer service for the company that makes the product is poor- they never answer their customer service line, they do not return phone calls, they take forever to reply to emails, and when they do, they must have reading comprehension issues as they fail to address/fix specific issues/concerns. If you want to roll the dice and waste $300+ on this product good luck to you. I am sure that some of their products must work, but I would not recommend it.

    I bought this on September 25th. Saw that the price had been lowered by $130 dollars. I knew that I was within the 45 day Elite+ time frame to ask for the lower price. Now that doesn't matter because on the 10th of October was the last day to be eligible to do this. I am starting to get worried that Best Buy is abandoning customer service.

    I was disappointed with this skeleton. The jaw stopped moving after being exposed to some light rain, but it was already too late to return. The design is also flawed. You need to be very careful when putting it together or you will break the components. For that price point, you would expect a much better product.
