My only complaint would be that the fabric used isn't quite strong enough so there are holes in some of them, from where the tags were attached, that are getting slightly bigger and will probably need to be sewn before too long.
seems like all the animals look angry, very angry and hostile.
Can they be made to look smiling and more friendly?

The elephant is horribly sewn - I can see a random black line where the sewing seam should have gone. Also, on the inside where the hand goes into the head portion is completely botched.
Seems like the quality of this set just doesn’t seem as consistent as the farm set (which all were wonderfully made).
I do like the packaging for either set, but for a gift - I wouldn’t buy these again.
