I also had read the reviews and ignored the fact that most of them revealed that the crucifix was broken.  I suppose it didn't deter me from ordering it since it's rare which is quite unfortunate! Either way mine was also broken and I also always have my superglue handy.  Also I had wanted to hang it up on the wall in my living room so I expected it to have a hole in the back.  Oh well! It's still worth it!
