You may recognize this as the pretty parlor, but this set is in some ways different to the pretty parlor. The structure of the building is the same, but the backside sticker, box and accessories are different, as well as the pony. The backside sticker has a more comic appearance, this is very typical Italian mlp art-work and the text is in Italian. The box is very different compared to the US one, it looks like they pulled up their own camera's and took their own pictures. The sideflaps are decorated with 2 ponies and a flower design. It came with at least 5 name tags (probably 8), minty (minty), polly (white snuzzle), pinky (cotton candy), cannella (butterscotch) and blu (blue belle). The box says that it comes with pinky, but it actually came with pesca (Italian peachy). The hats, tack, comb and brush have a rough feel to them, unlike the US version. The ribbons are original Italian ribbons, they have a different structure then the US ones. Obviously, the instructions are in Italian.
