€45 for the Castle? That's $60! Hopefully it's giant.
€25 for Cadence is a lot, too. I'd thunk down $30 for her if she's a special alicorn mold. Exciting news either way!
I think that is cool and all, but the fact that you found it on a German site makes me nervous that this will be yet another international exclusive. That will tick me off. Getting the individual ponies is hard enough, but if I had to try to get a castle.....I'd probably explode!If it's going to be a rather big castle like those released in the 80s, it's going to kill me to import it.
€45 for the Castle? That's $60! Hopefully it's giant.I'm betting they are going to use the brushable celestia mold. They wouldn't make a new mold like that for one pony, and hasbro does love to recycle

I'll bet Cadence will be the same size as Big Talking Celestia!
Hasbro probably figures, "Okay, now a lot of little girls have bought Celestia, so let's start pumping out another alicorn in that mold / price range."
Awesome job finding this news!
*Fingers crossed* that this does get released and it's not an international exclusive. I would love, *love* to get a real castle for the g4s. :)
All I'm hoping is that there is a GROOM for this WEDDING playset. Poor Princess Cadence shouldn't have to resort to marrying her left fist like I have.
Well, looks like the folks at Equestria Daily have somehow stumbled upon pictures.

Looks like cadence has an entirely new body mold, and Shining Armor will be our first brushable stallion in G4 toys.

Oh hasbro, that's soooo not fair; a male pony and a new princess, and they had to come with a huge playset...
that is going to cost a little fortune if it gets here :cry:
I am so excited to get this! I usually dont like playsets, but the whole theme is really charming!! :lovey:August 2012
Anyone know a possible release date for this set?
Oh, and is it just me or does the male pony look like it has 'troll hair'? You know, the fur type hair those troll dolls have.Yeah, you know, it's the sort of hair I imagined the toys would have if they wanted to be styled just like the cartoon, before I took a good look at real My Little Pony toys with their long, thin hair. But this "prince" pony's tail actually looks longer and fuller in his cartoon image!
A BOY. UNICORN. A BOY THAT IS A UNICORN THAT IS A BOY.
Hasbro? Here. Just take my money now.
An actual boy pony... I am in LOVE. Don't think anyone is going to want to do this... but if anyone decides they don't want the male pony - that is the ONLY thing I want from this playset. Whenever it eventually comes out lol. Let me know if you don't want him, I'll pay well for him. <3

So I was doing my usual mind numbing pony research for anything new and I think I may have come across something exciting... I somehow ended up on a German branding licensing site and searched my little pony and came across these two unusual listings with no pictures... date expected in August 2012... I also used my handy google translate and ended up with...At the very least it seems like Cadence is getting her own release...
Princess Cadence

At the very least it seems like Cadence is getting her own release...Possibly? I just did euro to usd to find out how much they would possibly be :| I do hope they are not exclusives!
i bet it'll be around $30 for the set. i can sit and dream of it only being $25ish but that's not going to happen LOL
The prices on the first page seem marked up for Germany. I definitely think they will be cheaper for the US.i bet it'll be around $30 for the set. i can sit and dream of it only being $25ish but that's not going to happen LOL
actually, if you look at the screen caps on the first page again, the prices are listed. The castle play set translates into about $59.22 USD ;P So almost twice that, unfortunately :\
I'm worried we won't be getting the Prince outside of the playset. Hasbro might not be confident boy ponies will sell well on their own yet.If they look like that, are you honestly SURPRISED? :sad:

LOL I wasn't going to say it, but you expressed it perfectly what I thought in my heart. And then Hasbro will run back to fans whinning that "we tried but it didn't work!". Like duh, if you try to sell what looks nothing like the prince on the box art. The princess is OK, although I was hoping Hasbro might make a new head for her like on her box art with a longer snout and slightly more mature look. Perfect for a custom Luna as well :D

I re-iterate the "SQUUEEEE *dies*" sentiment! :biggrin:
I think he looks great, even with the troll hair. That, on Hasbro's part, was most certainly an effort to make him less feminine and having long flowy locks doesn't exactly scream masculine. I actually don't think it looks bad. Overall ee looks great though, it was a little worrisome when the blind bag boys looked a wee bit odd, but I've definitely grown used to them.
Princess Cadence looks absolutely flawless and I'm super excited to have the both of them eventually!!
Somebody has to say it....He is just like the real Prince....going bald.

OMG!If you do find anything in tao bao, do share! thanks!
After seeing the blind bags boys I was worried of the head shape the "full size" boys might have! Now I'm so happy of what I see!
Sure hair seems a tad weird, but that's not something we can't overcome ^^
*runs off to taobao*
I looked the other day but saw nothing XD I hope someone has better luck than me XDOMG!If you do find anything in tao bao, do share! thanks!

Are these the flower girls that come with the castle too? The ones in the Toy Fair pics are different ponies. I hope we get new babies with the Castle set, since it looks like these are selling separately.
