Is this folding doll house new?
« on: October 19, 2013, 13:52:23 »
Hello,

Saw this on Asda's website. I haven't seen it before and there isn't an item number but it looks good value.

It looks pretty new to me.  I've never noticed it before.

Is it an USA exclusive?

Yeah it just came out a couple of months ago. We talked about it somewhere, but I can't seem to find where. It's a really cute little set, with some nice furniture and all. I think it is a US exclusive.

I bought it from Asda Direct a few weeks back now. The item number is 5951. It has been mentioned here before in another thread.

It's a good wee set...it folds up more compactly than any of the other take along houses and you get just as many accessories. I see it is reduced to £22 in the toy sale.....I paid the original £30 and was happy with that price so £22 is very well worth the money.

I think the consensus was that it is a US exclusive so I guess Asda get it because of the Walmart links....if you keep a regular eye on their website, they seem to get quite a few of the US exclusives in stock.

I haven't seen it before, although I like it! The repurposing of the hedges from set 3257 is very clever! :)
