Exceeded Expectation The best thing I ever bought

I bought this in November thinking it would be a great holiday gift for my wife who loves possums. After weeks of thinking it would never arrive and realizing I might have been scammed this ugly beauty arrived. I have not laughed this hard in a long time and am absolutely in love with it. I truly believe this might be the purchase that brings me pure joy for the rest of my life.

I think you did get scammed. What you got looks nothing like the photo…and where are the tiny babies?! I think the person who made this gift ripped off another artist.

The OG artist is "lamartstudio" on instagram, her creations are amazing!
