Not really, no.  Even G2 enthusiasts are rather meh about it.  It's flimsy and doesn't come with many accessories.  Why?  Selling?  :)

Sadly the quality of the playset right out of the gate was abysmal - I remember buying it brand new, and returning it because the parts were so badly designed they didn't hold together.  Vaguely recall that the rainbows didn't fit on the fences either the way they should have.  It was a retrofit of the LPS Zoo playset design.
G1 Wishlist  It's the final countdown! Looking to purchase the last few G1's for my collection - Watercolor Baby Sea Ponies Foamy, Misty & Surfy - Red Roses - SHS Sweet Sundrop - Springy - Teeny Tiny Snookums (#2)

The rainbows were a pain in the behind to put on. I remember using all my strength to get the to pop on those darn fences!

I think the playset is a cute one to have to display my g2s! If it's cheap enough at the thrift, you might have some luck selling it!

I remember being disappointed when I bought it new too.  It was a neat concept, with the fold out sections, but it was really poorly done.

Yeah...its one of those "cool ideas...poor conception" playsets unfortunately. MIB it struggles for even the $30 mark sometimes. So loose it can be a pain to sell - shipping is costly as well. 
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

I actually kind of liked it. I bought extra accessories to spruce it up. I would say it's worth it if yu can get one between $2-10. Probably not worth the original retail price.
