Glasses & mustache were great, wig was junk
The pinz -nez and mustache were good. The wig was so weird—like little orphan Annie—so we didn’t use the wig.

    Ordered this for my son's "wax museum" presentation at school. The spectacles were scratched when I took them out of the package. The supposed "chain" on them is a really cheap, white, braided cord with a loop on each end that you'd hook onto the bows of a normal pair of glasses. Talk about ugly. It's really long & heavy & the spectacles wouldn't stay on my son's nose. The wig is HIDEOUS!! Like really, really hideous!!! It's very wavy - almost curly & not even dark brown, it's a bright auburn color. Didn't realize Teddy was a curly redhead! It also had a very, very significant & noticeable part directly down the center. 😂 The mustache stuck on really well. Nearly took my kid's skin off when he took it off. He had sticky residue on his upper lip for almost 2 days afterward which collected fuzz & he wouldn't let me scrub it off. LOL I did trim the 'stache to a more natural shape so it'd fit under his nose better. So, considering we didn't use the wig or the spectacles & we had to trim the mustache to get it to fit between his nose & upper lip I'd have to say this is DEFINITELY NOT worth your money. It's poo!!!!!!

    The overall kit worked to enhance my 16 years olds Halloween costume house party ! It was a good item to reflect upon to try and mirror Teddy! The glasses fell apart--so If you really need these to pull off the look --you would need a better pair!

    I ordered this for my 2nd grader to dress up for school for President's Day. It was perfect for the occasion. The glasses don't stay on really well- we just bent them a little and he wore them far down on the bridge of his nose to keep them on. Nothing fancy, but it worked for the occasion.

    My daughter used this during a school assignment in which she acted as President Roosevelt during a "live wax museum" event. It was absolutely priceless. Great quality wig, mustache stayed on easily and glasses were great too.

    Definitely wasn't expecting much; barely passable would have done. But, no such luck. The glasses are ridiculous, and partially unhinged. I might be able to screw them together, but they're beyond worthless. No way on earth they could be used as-is. Pince-nez glasses need to have some kind of tension to make them work, but these are just bottom of the barrel quality plastic lenses with nose pads and seem to just be fake glasses with the ear pieces removed. No way could they be glued to the face if you wanted to somehow try to make use of them. The "chain" attached is a nylon cord, of the kind you'd find attached to tacky, freebie sunglasses. Even for kid's dress-up, that obvious cording is comically anachronistic. It looks awful. The mustache is not shaped like the one in the image, which totally messes up the Roosevelt look. And the wig. I didn't even intend to use a wig for my Roosevelt costume, and just figured I'd have a extra wig around for something else. But this weird, chestnut-colored thing, with its random curls, bizarre shape, and disgusting texture, is just garbage. I feel so stupid for having purchased this kit.
