The Princess Baby Buggy was a remake of Cuddle's Buggy that was released in 1990. It comes with a baby princess pony that was the only princess baby ever made. The pony shows up much more often than her buggy does. This playset is unusually hard to find. Considering the popularity of the original baby buggy it seems that this sparkly update would have been a good seller. All the I can figure is that either there were distribution problems and people simply couldn't find the item to buy it, or the set was expensive and thus people didn't buy it. This set is worth 4 horseshoe points, which is odd since most of the smaller sets like this were only worth 3 points. The increased value of horseshoe points seems to support the theory that this set was unusually expensive.

Note:
barrette: Hasbro seemed to have a hard time picking the color for this. Originally it was a teal crown barrette in the original brochure ad and on the box it was shown as a turquoise shooting star barrette and finally, they were packaged with pink shooting stars, lilac or dark purple. Oddly though, a teal crown barrette graphic is part of the logo on the box.
Comb: The comb is shown as being the dark magenta color of the buggy in the ad and on the box however, it was released with a regular pink comb or a periwinkle comb.
Cup and Dish: In the ad they are both shown as being teal, on the box they are both shown as being turquoise, however Hasbro ended up with a nice median and made the cup teal and the dish turquoise.
