That Mrs Cake has different eyes than the last version. And roller skates!? To help her.. bake faster? :blink:
Would have loved to see a Sweetie Blue brushable with this set. :(
This.Would have loved to see a Sweetie Blue brushable with this set. :(Me too, honestly.
I like how the register has a key bigger than the cash drawer. And the cake also has a key :lol:The pink muffin thing there has a key lock too

It's so stupid of Hasbro to re-release this character again so soon and in such a large set by herself.
I believe we saw promotional photos of this set, around the same time as the stock photo of FS Applejack & Daisy Dreams. I think at that point a Pinkie was shown to be included in the set? But I'm glad they didn't throw her in there upon release, since we already have the tinsel brushable and the body markings brushable. I think a rerelease of Plumsweet, Cupcake or Sweetie Swirl would have been cool to include, but so many people never saw the Princess Bakery (including myself!) that it's nice just to have another chance at a Mrs Cake figure.
I like this set and do not mind that it comes with Mrs. Cake (since I do not have her yet) but this would have been a good time to maybe add another male to the G4 toy world and give us a Mr. Cake. I love that cute little Pinkie Pie themed key which kinda makes me think Pinkie Pie should have been in the set.I was just about to mention this too. Looks like maybe it was a last minute decision to switch her out?

The set with Twirly Treats has been incredibly rare in some places, making her pretty sought after. Here, I think I've only heard of two instances of people finding the set in a store.
It's possible Hasbro are hoping enough people want her still to be willing to open their wallets a bit more. I just hope this release makes her loose price drop on Ebay.

Is it? My TRU had this set coming out their ears. Maybe I should have picked up some extras...

What is with the current trend of tossing a bunch of accessories with a pony and considering that a "playset"? (This is aimed at Hasbro, not at the TC.) Do customers these days not want or deserve proper playsets, where there's actually something you can keep all the bits inside? Even the super simple ones like the Pretty Parlor and Poof n' Puff were capable of this. I adored my Lullaby Nursery because it kept everything together and I could carry it outside to play.

You see, Mr Cake was injured in a freak meringue accident that morning & Mrs Cake began to panic about making it to a big catering job so Pinkie whipped out her magic key & unlocked the cake so she could put all the smaller cupcakes IN it so one pony could carry everything & she chucked Mrs Cake on roller skates so she wouldn't be late to her catering engagement but then Pinkie was called away on FiM business & forgot to take along her key. It all makes perfect sense, really.

I honestly think they should have just included Pinkie Pie in this set… (never thought I would be asking for another pinkie pie xD)

Its not actually a playset. Or Hasbro are not calling it that. Its an Accessory Pack. Retailers can pretty much call it whatever they like however. And I think they are relying on the cardboard backdrop to justify the "playset" tag.

I was going to say something similar as the first poster. While I understand that this is technically cheaper, I miss the days of g1 playsets where there were actual buildings.
