One thing pleases: now the builders and manufacturers of such objects for kids have a completely different outlook on life, which does not allow monsters to be passed off as gnomes, the Bloody Lady as Snow White, and genies, mermaids and other kind and peaceful fairy-tale characters to make them look like goblins, zombies and other evil spirits …
