Haven't had much luck in the hunting department lately and it was getting very discouraging.

Until today when I made an impromptu visit to the Goodwill 0utlet and made this surprising discovery!!

The Dream Castle I have currently is ALS0 a GW 0utlet find although I discovered it in another location. However, that one was missing all the blue castle turrets and I had to spend a small fortune buying them from eBay.

It's missing the back castle piece just like my first one.

Then in the next bin over I find THIS!

This was pretty exciting because I found only the main castle piece the first time around. It was amazingly unheard of to me to find more than one castle piece AND the blue turrets that always seem to be missing!!

They are missing their stickers but that's ok.

Still better than nothing!

This is a great find! You might be able to get repro stickers for the spots that are missing them

Great find!!

I know I was looking for the stickers once and someone here on the Arena sent me a link to a site with printable repro stickers, but now I cant find the link..

Hopefully someone has it!

That's an exciting find, especially for an impromptu visit!! Congrats

Thanks!!! Yes, I do recall a repro site for printable stickers. I'm sure I'll find it. I'm still a bit

in finding the blue turrets especially since I paid $30 for mine

But it's such an important part and I didn't think I'd ever find them at GW!!!

Never say never, I guess!!

It is definitely unyellowed and will make a great upgrade from the other one I had that is severely yellowed all around. I was very excited to discovered it was much more dramatically pink!!

The irony is I'd always hoped to find G1 Dream Castle when I first joined the Arena (its already been almost 10 years now!!) and I never had any luck whatsoever. Then within the span of 2 mos I find TWO castles.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. I hope to find some actual ponies next time around!!
