I bought this originally to keep in the box and collect. A friend of mine took hers out of the box and I was Shocked how well made this Marionette is! - He is made of real solid wood and was clothed and painted carefully. Pinocchio comes with a solid and wide wooden base that will hang your marionette for display. Pinocchio is about 11" tall and has jointed legs and arms to allow for lots of movement.

This was the toy nobody wanted. Mattel created this piece as a collector's item but it is a legitimate toy. This Pinocchio is a real marionette puppet made of real wood but they made only a few due to the fact that it did not sell well. The quality is unsurpassed. Not only is he made of real wood but his darling clothes and painted face make him a joy for children and adults. I remember when Amazon.com had the last batch of these puppets in the outlet section and were selling them for $40. I bought one (not really needing it)just because it was cheap and cute. I think Mattel was selling them for $200 originally just for the hardcore Disney fans.

Because of the rarity of this item they only show up on eBay about once per year. Not sure how much it is worth monetarily but it is priceless becuase of the quality and enjoyment one can get when playing with it.
