🍭 Kurt Adler 13.5-Inch Hollywood Candy Soldier Nutcracker, Multi-Colored Review

Arrived well packaged and undamaged. Love this quirky design! I already got it out for the holidays; it is brilliant and distinctive.

The white tree on the head is bent in half and all the small decorative candies have fallen off. I've only found 4 so far and there are markers on his tree for 5 of them. I am discussing a refund.

My six year old asked Santa for a nutcracker every Christmas. Santa delivered this this year and I really wanted you to like it because it's really adorable. However, the box looked battered and all the candy decorations had fallen off the tree. A little hot glue and it looked like new but it was disappointing that it had to be fixed right out of the box.

Glad I opened the box to check as soon as it arrived. A few small mints on the white wood at the top of the hat had fallen off. This could easily be fixed with some hot glue, but instead of being a pretty white tree thing on a hat, it looks more like a nasty old yellow bottle brush. Also, the ribbon of fabric has been flattened and no longer has the shape of a ribbon.

Perfection! I was expecting some small parts to detach during shipping but was pleasantly surprised. Everything whole, so securely packed. No hair (or feather) is out of place. The details are exquisite, right down to the little hanging gingerbread and the red jewel buttons. A truly amazing work. Christmas and creative. And another big plus: the sparkle doesn't come off at all! Absolutely love!
