I loved these arms and legs! I found them to be sturdy, and being able to move them and pose them how I wanted was great! I read other reviews that said using a regular pumpkin will only last around a week as the pumpkin will start to rot, but I used a foam carving pumpkin I bought at the craft store and carved a face and wrapped it in medical tape to make him a mummy pumpkin. Now I can use him every year! I will likely be purchasing more sets of these next year so I can make a few more!
