Princess Cadence and Shining Armour's wedding castle on Taobao!

[TE_Starflower]

my TRU and Walmarts are STILL over runned with light-up, talking Celestias from wave 1.  Didn't Hasbro learn from that?

Well, they kind of did. They must have sold well enough to continue to use the mold (see Cadence).. but they also learned to not make her pink since a white Celestia is going to be on sale this fall at TRUs, IIRC.

ah, thanks for that Icicle!

MAN, I would grab that castle and customize it SO BAD and make it so WONDERFUL. Urgh, the itch to do it... *twitch*

Lol no...I guess not...Talking Celestia is the one item that seems to always be left on shelves, although I think she was too expensive in the UK....

They paid for the mould and the style though...they ll aim to try a couple of times! And I guess they like the idea of a larger distinct Princess toy...

*squee* I can't wait for the Castle! I didn't think I'd want another castle, since I have the G3 one, but I think it would display alot better on a shelf in one direction. And I love the whole wedding theme. When I was a little girl we were constantly giving our ponies weddings...lol.

What are the odds that Cadence says the exact same phrases in the exact same voice as Talking Celestia?  Let's start taking bets here . . .

[Rainbowjuice]

Am I the only one annoyed by SA's troll hair? Why can't he have lovely locks like the G1 boys! *sob*
Personally, I don't like Cadence, something about her bothers me. Need her hubby though!
The castle looks great but the thought of the shipping scares me beyond words!

i'm expecting shipping to be a nightmare. but the fine print said i have a few weeks to pay or they'll send it back or something. my next check will be a huge one. i'm just waaaayyyyy too impatient to wait. of course by the time it gets here, they'll probably be in stores. -.-
i've had worse though... $200 pretty much given to a machanic to just let my car sit there. he sent it back saying it was fixed, when all he did was break a part, stick it back on and make it worse. never got that money back! just gotta keep reminding myself that i've wasted more money, on dumber things!!!!!! >.< after a bottle of pepto i should be good.

It is not wasting money for something you love ^_^

You do have a few days or so to pay, but remember if you haven't paid for the item yet, they won't order it! The shipping quote won't happen until it's arrived in their office and has been inspected and weighed. They'll give you 4 shipping options ranging from highest to lowest, but lowest also being the slowest method and with the most customs restrictions.
Good luck and I hope they arrive to you safely! It's not "stupid" because it's something you want and know you'll appreciate having.  C:

thanks for letting me know! i left a note for them that i'd like cheap shipping, but at least i'll have time to get some money while its being ordered and arriving at their office. i dipped into savings for it.
this is the week all my bills are due (i forgot about car insurence) and i already spent $30 on ponies this week >.<
i got my bills paid, now i just have to work on putting back what i took out of savings, and cover shipping. anyone have a guess on how much it might run? i don't have any guesses on how much it could be, but i'm expecting the worst, so it doesn't hit me too hard! lol

You didn't really have to make a note for it. They'll give you all four options (http://i.imgur.com/lE0vN.png) and then you pick the one you want.   (Yours probably won't be that expensive, don't worry!!) I hope you don't make yourself broke over this! ;_;

[cesprins]

I agree if its something you love its not a penny wasted. Do post pictures/review of your lovely pre-release buy. I'm itching to see this set so badly!! I really hope it comes out before the fall, or I might have to order it off taobao for a hefty price tag too!

I'm applying for TRUs credit card when they arrive- 10% of my future shopping spree.
