    finished doing this thing a couple weeks ago but only now just loaded it to photobucket.
    I've been promising my 6 year old that I would fix this set for her.
    originally,the card board backing sections always fell out,the railings always popped right out and every time she went to pick this up to put it away,it'd pop into three pieces and a pile of card board.
    everything is now fixed,like...=

    all backer board chunks sealed in with crystal clear hotglue

    all platform,pillars,railing and building top caps fused with 3m 2 part fusors. it'll never fall apart...ever.

    x2 sets of loonie store led lights and x4 AA's all work together to make this set more magical for her.

    I also added a mlp train set we found at value village.
    the main middle track chunk is now fused to the bottom of the main steps of the castle but she can still remove the side loops when it's clean up time.
    the main engine of the train was disassembled,cleaned and regreased.
    from the amount of blond hair I removed from the gearing, i think some other poor little girl may have been scalped by this thing before lolz.

    end result,my little one's extremely happy:)

    As much as I appreciate this, surely it should go under "Non-TF" in the description/title?

    Actually, it did transform; it went from an always falling-apart slugfest to a little girl's dream come true. :)
