Prince Cadence & Wedding Castle - now with pics! MERGED

[magicminty_unicorn]

Just made a tao bao search too with no luck

Yup, either Hasbro really protects these and not a single one made it out of the factory (yet) or things are just slow on Taobao because of the soon ending new year (which is very likely)

WooooooHooooo!!!      Boy pony!!!  That means they have made a boy pose and the other boy ponies may be made soon after!!!

Thanks sooo much StrawberryReef for the pics!!

I am a little disappointed the castle is another 2D playset.  I guess it will be easier to display that way but I think the other castles make better toys.  Considering my daughter will be getting the castle part most likely.
 
And yes what is with the Prince's hair?  I'm not crazy about it either.     I may customize my Prince's hair when I get him.
 
I really like the Princess's wings too!  Luna should have been done in that pose.  I wonder if they will redo Luna in that pose eventually.

I'm okay with the 2D G4 playsets, honestly. As much as the likes of Dream Castle or Paradise Estate look amazing and a have lot more play value... I just don't have anywhere to put huge playsets like that! However, I am a sucker for playsets and the G4 sets all display wonderfully on narrow shelves with room to spare for ponies in front of them.

So I'm really looking forward to the castle here. It looks really cute and should be able to hold a handful of ponies without taking up an entire room for itself

Oh, and, of course, obligatory OMG PRINCE BOY UNICORN AARRGHGHGHGHGGFLFLFLFLFLFLF.

I actually really dig the mold they're using. The head is a little on the square side (but that's okay because a lantern-jawed prince is perfect anyway) and the eyes are not how I would have done it - though, they don't look that bad - and, of course, the hair could be better as others have said... but all up, he looks pretty sweet. And a great first step to toward hopefully seeing more boys in future (Braeburn please, but that's probably hoping for too much).

A BOY. UNICORN. A BOY THAT IS A UNICORN THAT IS A BOY.

Hasbro? Here. Just take my money now.

^This!!! I don't care if he has a bit weird hair, it's a freakin' Unicorn boy pony!!! And Cadence looks like we'll be getting a more show accurate Luna with that mold, I hope!

Eyes look similar to Big Mac's = hint of what's to come?

This is no doubt a beautiful set, but whether I'll want to get it or not will depend on the characters' depiction on the show.

[Creepy Peeper]

Wow, I am absolutely blown away that they made the boy.    I will definitely be buying this set!

[Sora]

Boy. Pony. YES.

Absolutely cannot wait for this set!

[StoryDreamer]

I can't wait for this set. I could care less about the playset, I'd probably sell it to somebody for their kids! But OMG, Princess Cadence and her beau are a want.

Very exciting stuff!

*sits back and watches people get excited* 

I've been watching that too

[lemontwist]

Wow, am I late to the party on this one!
A boy pony! and a not-cardboard castle! and a new princess! with cool wings! I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing is happening!!

I do wish the castle was a bit more... more. But maybe later on in the G4 run they'll do a really fancy big castle playset. Of course it will probably cost a hoof and a flank but it would sooooo be worth it.
