Axis Scientific Life-Size Human Skeleton Model, 5'6" (167 cm), 206 Articulated Bones with Numbered Landmarks, Rolling Stand, Study Guide Included

The Axis Scientific Full-Size Skeleton Model is a remarkable and versatile educational tool that has played dual roles in my life. On one hand, it has been an invaluable asset in my training for spine surgeries, providing a detailed and accurate representation of the human skeleton. Its full-size design and lifelike articulation have made it an essential part of my medical education.But this anatomy model has another side to its story, as it has also made a surprising appearance as Halloween decor. Its eerily realistic appearance has added a bone-chilling touch to my spooky decorations during the Halloween season. It never fails to elicit a mix of fascination and shivers from guests who encounter it.So, whether I'm using it to advance my medical knowledge or to set a spine-tingling mood for Halloween, the this has proven its worth in multiple facets of my life. It's an investment that keeps on giving, both in education and in creating memorable moments of fun and fright.

If you are studying anatomy and having trouble visualizing the size and position of the bones, this will definitely help. Included is a booklet which explains why things are named the way they are in a way that will help you to remember. There are numbered stickers to attach to the skeleton to help with names and location. This could be a valuable help to any manual therapist or medical student or in a doctor's office for patient education. It is well made. You can't go wrong with Axis Scientific products and Anatomy Warehouse. It came well packed and only took minutes to assemble. I am loving how it is helping me to learn. Thank you Axis!

I am a Kinesiology major studying to be a physical therapist, and this anatomical skeleton is amazing! Not only did it help me for my lab finals, it is a great tool and guide to remembering the anatomy of the human body. Super easy to assemble. The product came with a guide to assemble the skeleton, a study and numbering guide (which is amazing and useful), another guide with every bone labeled, and a little bone pen to use! The company even sent me a little note afterwards, thanking me for the purchase and a quick mini study guide of the skeleton (which I keep in my bag). Overall, love the product and would definitely buy from them again!

The quality of the skeleton is decent, and the anatomical accuracy is good, although some of the more detailed bony-landmarks are less well-defined than with better models. The problem lies with the stand, which is made of very cheap plastic. I was rolling mine on a carpet in my office and one of the legs snapped off. When I took a closer look, the plastic around the break was very brittle and broke easily.

This skeleton comes at a good price. For about 200 bucks (at the time of this writing) the buyer receives a fairly accurate skeleton that looks to be made of solid grade material. The stand is a bit flimsy but take care how you roll it around and it should be fine. Easy to assemble - it took all but 10-15 minutes from out-of-the-box to completion.As a student of anatomy and physiology having your own skeleton to observe and work with pays dividends during/after each and every use. Lab time at the university is great but it's much more convenient to have both lab materials and home materials to choose from.Some of the bone markings are difficult to discern. The majority are visible and with that the skeleton scores high. However, if your A & P instructors are sticklers for each and every boney depression, articulation, hole or prominence you'll need additional reference material to help identify. This is my only "gripe" about this product, but it is a small gripe and on the whole this skeleton is a good deal and has much to offer. Happy customer.

Jack Skellington came in perfect condition, and was extremely easy to assemble. Wonderful quality and a great personality. As a physical therapy assistant student during the pandemic, having Jack hang out and help me study at home has been invaluable to my learning.He keeps asking about some chick named Sally, randomly bursts into song, and recites Shakespearean quotations, and is very willing to let me study him and manipulate his joints, which appear to be durable and high quality. He came with a bunch of stickers for labeling muscle origins/insertions as well, very handy. I researched many similar models in the price range and highly recommend this one, I’m very pleased with my new study buddy!!!

I bought this model after a fellow art anatomy student at the Art Students League of NY recommended it. Mine came with a hole in the box and was missing some nuts and bolts. I tried to improvise. When I asked a question online to help me do that, the seller contacted me and offered to send the missing parts. Now in the past, when a purchase was missing something, the vendor told me I had to send back the whole thing. But these guys quickly and efficiently sent me exactly what I needed, plus a few extra screws. I'm impressed with the excellent service. I also love the skeleton. In art there are things that you cannot guess at. This guy is especially helpful for scapula, pelvis, skull, hands and feet. I can't speak to spinal column and nerves or other parts because I'm still learning. I'm really happy with him. Once I worked at a medical school where we spared no expense to buy a real skeleton. That one was delivered edentulous and stood less than five feet tall. The med instructor thought he might have come from Malaysia because of his stature. So, you can pay lots more and take your chances, or go with this guy for a fraction of the cost. I choose Axis and Anatomy Warehouse. Thanks, guys!

The Skeleton is great quality… unfortunately the stand broke immediately when I was connecting it. I think it was cracked when I received it. So disappointed because the overall product is great. I wish I could just get a replacement stand
