I wanted something unique from the US, and since the Disney Store in Italy didn’t carry this set, it was just perfect! I managed to pack it in my luggage without the box and bring it to Italy for my niece’s birthday—after five years of not being able to visit my family. The horse had a small defect, (leak) but I quickly fixed it with transparent glue and nobody noticed.The dolls are incredibly well-made!!! I had the chance to play with my niece, who already owns an Elsa doll from the Disney Store, and let me tell you—this one is far superior in quality and detail. The hair, eyes, legs, wrists, and elbows are all articulated, which is a huge plus for real playtime! The dress and shoes are beautifully detailed, as are all the little accessories that bring the characters to life.The horse and the boat are stunning and delicate, but if they survived a trip to Italy (wrapped in plenty of bubble wrap), they can definitely handle playtime with kids! My niece is five, and she absolutely loves it. However, I wouldn’t recommend this set for younger children, as it includes small pieces. If you decide to buy it for a younger child who tends to put things in their mouth, just make sure to remove the small parts or inform the parents beforehand.
