Can You Identify This Castle?

Post by Escapay »

Borrowing my post from the "Disney toy castles" thread in Disney Discussion...

Hopefully someone can identify this one toy castle for me. It was made in 1988 and available in stores (mine was from a department store, forget which one...I think Macy's or Sears). The castle is the WDW Cinderella Castle, and it folds out on the sides to make the castle look wider. Among the features are a clock where you can change the hands to different times, a castle drawbridge with Mickey Mouse's face on it, and inside the castle, an "elevator" that features a sticker of Mickey and Minnie on it. It's grey with blue turrets (with yellow flags on top, though on mine, the flags have been long gone) and blue doors. The castle originally came with several play people (two male, two female, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto), but I only have Pluto and a couple people left. In addition, there are some transportation vehicles included, such as a horse-drawn carriage, a bus (with Disney characters on the windows), a car, and a train. The play people are in storage, but the castle has been sitting on top of my armoire for years (I don't have the heart to put it in storage). I've had it since I was three years old, and really would love to know more about where it came from. If it helps, on the bottom of the castle it says "(c) 1987 Playmates, Made in China"

Hey, I still have that castle set at home! It hasn't been played with in years! It's in my closet.
