We bought "Edison" along with a few other gnomes for a mine we had created out of some landscaping boulders in our front yard. He was the biggest, and definitely the cutest. His light was very bright. His colors were great, but I would recommend spraying him with a UV protector before leaving him outside. The one thing I wish I could change was his weight. He's fairly light, so he blew over in the wind a few times, and a chunk of his hat broke off as a result.
