I checked the reviews on this castle and the latest version! The latest version had a very poor understanding, so I ordered the old version certainly more expensive, but very good! I just give it to my granddaughter of seven, who loves pony, and she jumped for joy! This old version castle is solid thick plastic. The castle holds well and I have reattached the three towers at the top who tended to come off! So you can buy with confidence, your girls will love!
