I love these sets, I think it is the randomness of pony and candles. A very lucky find.

I did try to press her, but can't get enough of a push on it :( Still think it's awesome though :)

snyfez, they're wonderful! I always loved how the packaging matched.

There were a lot around for a while - I think it was old shop stock - but as always, the supply ran out eventually :( I reggret not getting one at the time actually.

Nice topic!! It brings back a few memories!! Apart from the official Hasbro editions, we would also have the occasional in-store, hand-made λαμπάδα (lampada = Easter Candle) made of a big, colourful candle, a few ribbons and ornaments and a random pony from old stock, usually de-boxed by the toy-shop owner. A friend once told me he would find Greek Babies in blister sold like that! I remember finding a TE Sweet Stuff (if my memory serves me right) in early '90s put together like that but i was too embarrassed to purchase her! I still keep my eyes open for old "lampadas", though!

I was a few minutes too late to nab one with Mommy Sunbright a year or so ago.  I'm still dying to get my hands on one.  Or two.  Or ten, lol.

Well blow me down! Not only is it difficult enough to find a daddy pony, but you can even upgrade to the super-dooper htf sold-with-Greek-candle version!!!!! That was unexpected news but very intriguing! Snyfez, could I ask what sort of money people could expect to part with for a MIB?
