Just throw in set #4930 for some dwarves. ;)

looking at my MM catalogue which arrived today, i've spent most of my time
scouring the belville pages for details. in #5824, the blue fairy has a
silver moon design where as the others have stars.it comes with the scala
butterfly and lady bug too. wow. what appeats to be a clear gemstone! a
diamond! i _must_ have it! i like this set a lot, and it's only $9!

The light-pink fairy in #5823 also has the moon pattern.

Can someone tell me *why* they didn't use minifigs for the fairies?  These
non-poseable SPUDs are terrible!

  in #5823 one of the kittens is an orange tabby! there's a small trans-red
or trans dark pink treasure chest, a trans lt pink gemstone, a silver cup
and either a trans red or trans drk pink small radar dish.

the #5827 ~royal coach, i'm a bit "if-fy" about getting. the silver radar
dishes and a large (#5801 size) clear chest, the fairy, which is white w/
clear wand are the only appealing elements.

And this fairy has a rosebud print.  Just in case anyone cares.

I'm not too keen on the SPUD-ness of the carriage, but this is Belville--that
approach is expected.

I notice in sets 5825 (Fairy Queen Stella) and 5826 (Wicked Queen) there's a new
element for Belville - a solid wall with studs on the sides (or is this old, and
I've been asleep?).  I guess the Belville designers have been taking notes from
Scala.  Good for them.

Waittaminnit--5825 has *light blue* elements!  A 1x12x3 arch, a 1x4(x2?) arch, 2
1x2 regular slopes, a 2x4 plate, the table pedestal (2x2xn brick(s)), and some
tiles for the top of the fireplace!  Woohoo!

OK, I've calmed down now.
