The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that the crab comes out a bit far from the shell when used as a doll. My son loves the hermit crab "Henry", it looks very realistic and is huge. Pliers, eye, shell, all right. And kudos to the seller for getting me in until Christmas because it wasn't ordered until late the 17th. I'll definitely keep Folkmanis in mind if I need another animal. If the crab could be removed from the shell, or better yet, was detachable and had a spare shell, that would be great. And I would pay extra for that. But then I would have to give them 6 stars.
