This is about what I was expecting.  It was a little bit lighter than I was expecting just from the picture, but not light enough that it causes any type of problem from being "too light".  The one thing that surprised me (and why I took off a star) is that the edges are actually very sharp!  I'm assuming this was manufactured with some sort of plastic molding/casting process, and the areas of the "seam" plus some of the edges on the robes are sharp enough to cut in a few places after unboxing.  I picked off the most egregious ones with my fingernail when I was deciding where to put it, but definitely something to watch out for.
