I really like that castle, but I believe 99 AUD is still around $75 USD and... that's a ridiculous price.

Still, nice to see the new sets popping up!

neat to see them finally!

I'll just wait for them to end up 1/2 off at ROSS like the last TRU sets.

Wow, that Flutters is cute! Not my style personally, but I like her wings. :D

(What are the new ponies' names in the 6-pack? Do they have their show/TCG/whatever names, or? :o)

Celestia's castle would be around $110 USD ;_; I nearly had a heart attack! Dx

Lemme hurry up and get me another job before these ponies make an appearance  >_<

Ooh that castle is pretty. It would make such a nice display for ponies, but no way I'm paying that much for it.

I have to admit, Ive been disappointed lately with G4 play sets and the prices that come with them.  Their all so one sided, flat displays.  I keep eyeing the LilCritters playsets at Target.  Fully realized playsets with tons of accessories for a reasonable price.

I might get Rarity's boutique if I can find it on sale, but I'll pass on the castle.

No pony mania set at TRU Aspley :'( VERY sad... and I took the bus out there, and then the bus nearly had an accident as I was getting off, and I dropped a shopping bag without realising... worth about $90, and I'm STILL trying to get onto the council about it, but because it isn't worth more than $500, they won't talk to me until tomorrow, urgh! Damn TRU, you RUINED my day! If my ponies had been in that bag, it would've been much bulkier and I would have noticed the darned thing before I pretty much fell off the bus!

It's nice to see that the new Pony Mania stuff is showing up along with the new playsets. With the way things have been released here I'm sort of worried that the states will be skipped over again. :/ Also, those prices are outrageous! All the past TRU "favorites" sets were never more than like $40 before tax. As much as I want all those new ponies there's NO way I'll be paying close to 75 dollars if TRU in the states decides to up the price that much.

I know she' wasn't pictured here but I hate to think what they'll charge for Daring Do. I can imagine she will cost a heck of a lot more than a regular FS just because she's an "exclusive". I'm guessing they'll charge about 25-30 instead of the usual 15-ish most Fashion Styles tend to cost. I'm going to wait for them to go on sale or when I have a nice coupon. If these dolls are anything like all of the previous TRU exclusive sets in my area they will sit on the shelves for years. Literally years... There are still a load of those Shadowbolt Rainbow Dash and those talking white Celestias they're still trying to get rid of.

Anyone know if these are in the UK yet?

Smyths has started listing some new stuff like Rarity's Boutique and Pop Twilight's Castle and says it should be in stock next week, though they are known to keep pushing dates back so it's not definite. Toys R Us here are terrible at keeping their website up to date though, so it's hard to tell when or if they'll have the exclusive pony mania stuff >_<

Keep in mind that ponies in Australia are usually about twice as much as their cost in the US. A single brushable pony over here is $8-10, whereas in the US I believe they are five bucks a pop? And a regular fashion style pony would range between $19-25 AU. If the set is $70 over here then it should hit American shores at your usual $40, no problem.
