Review: Mantelpiece Bling - These are two grand lion’s very good moulded replica’s I agree with another comment that one of the eyes a bit wonky. Apart from that I have been looking for a long time for something like these & I have to say Toscano have got some great things.

These are two grand lion’s very good moulded replica’s I agree with another comment that one of the eyes a bit wonky. Apart from that I have been looking for a long time for something like these & I have to say Toscano have got some great things.

Looking beautiful in the garden

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not great quality, but okay
*by A***R on 24 April 2019*

Look nice from a distance, but cheap close up. The bottom of each lion isn't properly level, so they dont sit nicely - that's quite noticeable. Plus one lion has a manic staring eye! I've got the stone versions of these, and the difference in them is noticeable.
