to want to boycott ELC for cashing in.

[radiohelen]

Have you seen this

The Royal Wedding is a glorious excuse to pish tax payers money down the swanney on the excuse that it might "cheer us all up".

And that doll looks nothing like Kate Middleton.

I've just pre-ordered one as well

Mists, I need that!

at the boycott. What on earth were a commercial company thinking when they decided to make money from a massive public event? Smacked bottoms all around for the ELC bosses.

FFS.

"Happyland should do more events, like Happyland Olympics with mini versions of the actual athletes."

I heard some of the athletes were pretty mini already!

The royals have made enough bloody money out of us over the years so why not

For everyone saying that this is a terrible thing, why? How is it different from ELC "cashing in" on the fact that trains exist, or that kids like noise?

Got to have one! Preordering.

ELC should have started this thread themselves- loads of sales off the back of this!

Ha ha! That is brilliant! Would get for DS2 (he loves Happyland) but suspect DH would grumpily veto the purchase .

but it might be worth a FORTUNE in years to come if you leave it in the box?!
it is quite cute, but she isnt having a carraige is she?!

oh dear, i have just ordered one...

Me too

I think she is having a carriage after the ceremony, just not before......... *MsKlo

me too, DD will love it (and me too)

I think ELC should pay OP commission because I'm ordering one for me DD

OMG those are so cute!

We have seen it with DH. Could not believe it. Especially the corgi.

This just makes me sad that DS is too old for happyland now . I think it is great!

if you don't like it dont but it! As for cheap plastic crap what on earth does your kid play with then karmabeliever? Fine bone china?

I love that royal wedding set! Considered getting for the Y1 class I work in. Would go well with out castle theme at the moment.

Mind you, the royal wedding itself doesn't bother me. If nothing else it is a day off :)

And Happyland is def not in the cheap plastic tat department for me. DD had loads of Happyland when little. Itwasn't cheap. It was very durable, well made and lasted constant play for a long time, and then sold on (via MN as it happens) all the different sets within 30 minutes of posting them for sale, all for my asking price of half their rrp. Happyland was worth every penny.

We got our Royal Wedding set last week. Box was trashed by Royal Mail which helped with the decision to take it out of the box. DD loves them.

I would boycott ELC for a variety of reasons...but not that! I LOVE that playset!

I really like the inclusion of the corgi!

I'm getting one. It's awesome.

Op. I think you may have helped elc sell a few more. I've just pre ordered.

I love it and have placed my preorder.
