True, you never know whats mixed with that polystone. People cut corners on material, it could very well be bad for you. If you start to turn green, im sure its not gamma poisoning.

Lead actually smells sort of sweet so I doubt that's what it was.

Yah I don't know what he was smelling so I thought it might be lead or something like that.

i wonder if there is a place to take my broken statue to test for any toxic fumes. Better safe than sorry. Wouldn't want your children inhaling dangerous fumes, if there are any.
