- Is it really life-size?
- It stands 48 inches, about four feet, which is roughly life-size for a nutcracker figure. It is a decorative statue, not a wearable or animatronic piece.
- Can it stay outside?
- Yes, in a protected spot such as a covered porch. Keep it out of direct rain, sprinklers and strong wind, and weigh the base down.
- Does it light up or move?
- No. It has no lights, no power and no moving parts, so plan separate lighting if you want it visible at night.
- Do I have to assemble it?
- No assembly is required. It arrives as one piece and stands on its own base.
- How much floor space does it need?
- The base is about 9 by 8 inches, so it fits in a narrow entry corner. Leave clearance above for its hat and staff.
- How should I store it off-season?
- Wrap it in a breathable cover and keep it dry and out of sunlight. Avoid stacking heavy items on it to protect the paint.
