Pippi Longstocking is a nine-year-old girl, one that is known in my part of the world as a "tomboy". Her friends are a horse, a monkey and the two children who live next door. Oh, and she posesses superhuman strength. She is the creation of the Swedish children's author Astrid Lingren, and she appears in three books and numerous short stories, as well as in movies, a TV series and comic books.
It's an old JFSchreiber kit from 1973. Well, how could I not enjoy giving shape to this cheeky little minx? Nothing difficult here. She stands about 40 cm. tall, and is currently loitering about in our kitchen hoping to snaffle a biscuit or two when nobody's looking, no doubt. My other half took her to heart straight away, and I don't blame her.
