Review on 🦴 Axis Scientific Removable Reference Skeleton by Phillip Hoover

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not very accurate for such a high price

Initially I was very excited about this model and sometimes it comes in handy especially when I'm studying. I have read many reviews on many skeletons and all people have said this is the most anatomically accurate. However, 2 months in sports school is not very accurate. The distance from the scapula to the spinous processes is WAY too far for such a small skeleton (large ratio), it's 3 inches which is the distance for a normal 5 foot human. ALSO the articulation of the ribs is VERY imprecise. Each rib is believed to articulate with two vertebrae in the thoracic region (except T10-T12), but in this skeleton each rib articulates with its own vertebra and has no hemifacet. It's the little things that are extremely important to study, and this skeleton is NOT cheap for such gross inaccuracies.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I will add later
