Do you have this set? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!

I've saw this set secondhand a few times. I don't collect G3 play sets, but I do like the pony that comes with it...

For the entire month of April I'll be featuring orange bodied ponies and also others that are nirvana. I'll continue to dedicate the first few days to birthday ponies in celebration of those born within that month. The last day of the month will be dedicated to a specific play set.

I had this set as a child! I remember going to walmart to pick out a toy and heading straight for this. Such a random choice, I still wish I'd gotten a few ponies instead of the playset (for which I only had two ponies including RnR lol) but I did love Round N Round so much, she had the best hair. And that's still one of my favorite poses!

I wouldn't mind having this set. Its cute,  and I like the colors. Round n Round is on my wishlist,  because I love amusement parks. I used to think her symbol was a prize ribbon.

Oh man, I have fond memories of gazing at this playset in catalogs as a kid. I had a pretty cool Kelly amusement park playset that I used for a lot of other toys though, so I didn't really feel like I needed it.

I cannot read this pony's name without getting the Ratt song stuck in my head. We need more metal ponies.

Same here about the Ratt song. I'm glad I'm not the only one that happens too.

I also hear the Ratt song in my head. Shows my age, I guess.

As for the playset, it's cute, but not on my wishlist. Need to save the space for the childhood ones I'm looking to rehab/replace. I wouldn't mind getting the pony though...I love her bright colors!

I remember seeing it at Toys R Us a couple times before I finally got it for Christmas 2004, along with some Dazzle Brights like Kiwi Tart and Bowtie. :) I don't have it anymore. It's not a priority to get a replacement, but it is cute.

I now need someone to take a picture of Round n Round with a Ratt album.  :biggrin:

I would have been into this as a kid, but I'm not really interested in collecting playsets right now due to the space they take up.  I would kind of like to play with it to see how it works!

I have this set, one from childhood which my friend gave to me, she lived 2 doors down so I would see her most sundays on my bike, she was clearing the garage for a carboot and I saw the ponies! I ran home to get my pocket money savings but her mum said I could take them! (It’s a bit knackered after playing with it so much! The Ferris wheel falls apart easily and the rollercoaster car doesn’t go all the way down anymore) and another set in its box that I got from the car boot a few years ago -pony. It’s much shinier and brighter and works perfectly!

I also have 36 Round N Rounds  :P she is my other army pony, along with pink sunsparkle. Unlike the sunnies, I have named and kept track of each since I got them, so each has a coloured band so I can tell between them!

I bought this set when it came out in stores.  It is a fun play set to use to display ponies.

Never seen the playset before! Don't have space for playsets and this one looks kind of odd to me, so I'll pass on that, but OMG Round 'n Round is so cute! I'd love to get her one day.

I used to own this as a child, but since given it away :( My parents were a little disappointed I'd used birthday money gifted to me to buy it at Toys R Us lol.
I've always wished the rollercoaster bit was longer

Oh, I had this set growing up!! I don't have it or the Round n Round it came with anymore (she was one of my ponies that fell victim to my very brief dabbling in customisation when I was 14 which came to an abrupt halt when I realised I didn't have anything to customise a pony with beyond the initial dehairing stage....), but I do have another Round n Round now, and she stands proudly on my desk! I don't think I'll be seeking out another copy of the playset though, as I really don't have the space to be storing playsets.
