I bought this doll for my son for 3rd birthday. The dolls are designed very carefully and above all the little details (witch's broom, gun at Jaeger) convince me totally. In addition, the dolls are all individually wrapped and have what is particularly important for me, beautiful funny faces (made of wood). I think that is the versions with Plastikkoepfen absolutely horrible. Because so many dolls are, you can easily play many different stories. And from Gretel we easily made with felt a Rotkaeppchen :-)
