This baby doll originally came with the following accessories: BABY BOTTLE.
This type of baby doll is classified by Götz as a "DRINK AND WET; ANATOMICALLY CORRECT BABY DOLL" which roughly translates to "TRINK- UND. NAßBABY; MADCHEN UND JUNGE" in German. These baby dolls have an all-vinyl doll torso; as such it is a hard-bodied baby doll. Designed to have natural human proportions; these baby dolls have "bent" knees and ankles (and elbows) which gives them an "articulated" appearance. For this reason, these articulated baby dolls can only sit and/or lay flat; they cannot stand without help.
A "DRINK AND WET" baby doll is specifically designed "to drink" from a baby bottle; their mouths have a hole that allows a specially designed baby bottle to be inserted into it, from which they can drink from; "to wet," these baby dolls "wee" (also known as "wetting") through physical, external, anatomically-correct, gender-specific (i.e. male or female) reproductive organs. As such, these dolls must be internally and externally waterproof; they range in size around 40cm/16".
"DRINK AND WET; ANATOMICALLY CORRECT" baby dolls fall within the doll category: REGULAR PLAY DOLLS; they have been specifically designed to develop and stimulate creative child play and are made with fabrics and materials that are both durable and capable of withstanding vigorous play. These baby dolls will either be BALD (as in the case of "newborn/baby") or they will have ROOTED HAIR (as in the case of "infant/toddler") that is easy to maintain and clean. Baby dolls with "SLEEPY-EYES" will have eyes made from quality plastics; baby dolls with "FIXED EYES" will have manufacturer, surface-painted doll eyes. These baby dolls have high-quality outfits made from natural fibers and materials. These dolls are mass-produced and not designed by a specific doll artist. These particular Götz Dolls are one of the least expensive "type" of Götz Doll produced within the Götz doll market.
