How to make you daughter cry in 9 easy steps!
Do you want the My Little Pony lover in your house to cry miserably for an inordinate amount of time as she attempts to put this castle together? Do you want to swoop in to help solve her engineering crisis only to curse the makers of all plastic ponies? Do you want to hire a trio of armed guards to protect this toy from accidentally being bumped which would result in a total plastic implosion? Well friends, do I have the castle for you! Seriously though- this was stupid amounts of complicated and the plastic seems about 2/3's thinner than the typically well-made pony sets... this is crap. My daughter was SO excited about this castle- she started sending me links to the mlp website about it a month or so ago. She has been saving her hard-earned allowance dollars so that she could buy it, and then spent a good part of this afternoon frustrated with the shoddy craftsmanship.
Sidenote: Princess Twilight Sparkle's unicorn bumps into the castle on her way down the slide- leaving my future-engineer-daughter to remark that this is the worst-designed castle in all of Equestria.
