Stuffed Animals with Mental Disorders

German toymaker Paraplush has released a line of cute stuffed animals that suffer from different mental illnesses.

Depressed Turtle
Being an animal accustomed to a more relaxed pace, life in the fast lane has caught up with Dub, sending him into a severe depression.

Sheep with Multiple Personality Disorder
Dolly seems to suffer from the delusion that she is a wolf despite the fact that she is without a doubt a sheep.

Hallucinating Snake
Sly’s inner conflict must be interpreted as a sign of an ambivalent relationships towards its own body. Combined with the fascination of an apparently much more potent-seeming substitute rattle, we suspect the manifestation of a deeply rooted rattle complex.

Hippo with OCD
Lilo has been trying to solve the same wooden jigsaw puzzle for the past few months without success. He is so absorbed in this repetitive activity that he is completely unaware of his surroundings.

Paranoid Crocodile
Kroko’s hypersensitive perception is a symptom of a paranoid psychosis.

Growing Rings and Potted Plant Necklaces

The Moss Ring is Inspired by Nature
The ‘Real Moss Ring’ by Cometman x Kokeya is a piece of nature on your finger. It is a fashionably large accessory that requires special attention. Due to the fact the ring holds true moss, it requires watering daily.

For all the environmentalists out there, this one is for you. The ‘Real Moss Ring’ is made of wood and is reminiscent of the ‘Chia Pet’ toys that took the market by storm. Instead of growing a traditional garden, why not grow one on your finger instead?

CarTowers Now Opened Publicly

Visitors to the Autostadt are now able to experience the CarTowers from the inside! A special glass, panorama lift takes six guests through the same procedure as one of the 800 cars stored in the CarTowers. Until recently the glass-encased steel construction of the CarTowers was closed to the public, now the inside of the Autostadt’s most well-known landmark can be explored from top to bottom.

 Visitors are taken up 48 metres to the 20th storey by the car shuttle as if they were a regular car – for extra effect the car shuttle swings slowly to the right and then back to the left before safely depositing the glass lift in a specially designed slot on the observation deck.

A breathtaking view of the Autostadt’s lagoon-landscape, the Volkswagen factory and the adjacent countryside greets the guests when they disembark. During the ride through the inside of the tower the ever changing views of the landscape merge with the impressions of a highly complex technology at work.
 The TurmFahrt (CarTower Discovery) takes place up to three times every hour and lasts approx. fifteen minutes. The lift seats six, children taller than one metre are welcome. The CarTower Discovery attraction is suitable for all, with the following exceptions: pregnant women, people with heart disease, people with limited use of their legs (Wheelchair).Tickets are available from the WelcomeDesk on the piazza.Adults: € 8, Reduced rate: € 6, Children (6-17 years), students: € 4
