Just received this statue and I couldn't be more thrilled! First of all, the delivery was very fast. Second, I felt I took a chance and crossed my fingers worrying it would arrive damaged as it seems to have happened to some customers. Although I can't put it out in my garden yet until the snow is gone, I've inspected it and there's no damage whatsoever. I'm very happy with this purchase. It's a massive and fairly heavy statue and that's exactly what I needed.
