It's amazing!: Nutcracker

I was skeptical about buying this product because of the many conflicting reviews, but I took a chance and made up my mind based on the latest reviews. I bought this on 12/25/15 for my niece as a Christmas present as she loves collecting nutcrackers. The box and packaging is flimsy as other reviewers have noted, it was packaged in a flimsy display box wrapped in bubble wrap; Luckily he made it to World 1 unharmed! I'm pleasantly surprised at the quality and detail, it's made mostly of wood and…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Nothing

Lovely nutcracker but painting isn't what it should be

When I bought the nutcracker I had mixed expectations. I read the reviews, both positive and negative, and decided to take a chance. The first thing I noticed was the chemical smell that came out of the opened box. I suspect it's paint fumes. He came broken; The gingerbread house at the base came loose. This is easily fixed with some wood glue, so it's no big deal. While the nutcracker itself is well drawn, the additional details like the gingerbread, base, and house weren't drawn very well…

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • boring packaging

Poor quality, weak construction

When shopping first, be wary of whether Revain says a product is returnable or not. I didn't notice this small difference. The nutcracker itself is light, flimsy, and the handle mechanism on the back used to control the mouth does not work smoothly. It must be gently moved up and down for the mouth to open properly. This nutcracker looks exactly like the one shown on the website and is cute, but I'm giving it to a child so it must be pretty well put together, strong, which it isn't. I also…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Protection

Bad craftsmanship in The Nutcrackers

The first one I received looked used and worn. There was no circular tape in the box, but I could still see the outline of where it was, the corners were torn as if it had been opened before, the styrofoam over the head was cracked like the nutcracker was in the wrong way the box had been put back and just flattened out the head looked like someone had left a lollipop on it because it was sticky and had weird paint stains and the pieces were missing paint, chips and more. Didn't see it was…

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Lots of things
