This is a well made piece of apparatus. It operates as instructed. It is made in India, yet is not,
as claimed in the instructions - "...made of wood.." It is constructed from a dense plastic. It is
colourfully painted in high gloss finish and features a black gingerbread man, which i find
culturally inappropriate/old-fashioned imperialism. I bought it to acquire the 'secret' and for the
materials: I will be dis-assembling this item and re-constucting/converting it to another
'figure'.... Good value if you are into prop making/customising your acts/shows.....since this is a
scarce item.Penguin delivery and packaging and contact was excellent
