what is the difference between this $200+ version and the "small" castle for $100-ish?

This is more like a Barbie house, intended for 12' dolls. The smaller one is designed for the tiny dolls that the clothes clip onto.

I paid less than $100.00 for this. The small one is for little dolls. This is the one for the 12 inch Barbie sized dolls. I think that these are being sold by individuals on Amazon and because it is so late they are ripping the customers off so that they can make a profit from their purchases. Parents are desperate to get them and will pay any price. The "small" castle was selling for about $50.00 I think.

There is no difference, people are selling this on eBay for $399.00 b/c they know that parents are desperate to get one for Xmas. These sellers are greedy!

The small amount of furniture is included but no lights or dolls. Just Olaf. My opinion, this is not worth the price. I spent $100 on it, not almost $300, and I don't think it's worth that much.

I thought the small version is wonderful. My great granddaughter loves it. I ordered the rest of the people and she plays with them constantly. It is very smart to have the clothes "clip on."

i've been building with lego for well over 30 years and they have ALWAYS been pricey. as for the question on if the flagship is worth it? very much so. it looks beautiful on the mantle

There is no difference. Not sure why you are seeing it as more expensive. I'd just try to get the larger one at the lowest price you can find.

This model is very basic. The higher end models will snugly hold smaller children. Look at the chariot trailers. They are expensive, but the resale value is great.

I think the difference is the rounded corners and metal slide rails. See my review of this item, not worth it. Look into something better.

don't pay 200, I got it for under a 100 on the fort magic site, I think it was 99, but it is worth 100! My daughter and I love it.

Did you order the large one? Or the small one? I'm pretty sure these are ok for the large size castle.

castle assembled is approx. 2 feet tall. the box it comes in is probably 2 1/2 feet tall and 18 inches wide. Box isn't all that sturdy either

I bought this because it is small and novel and because I wanted it. I've been building PC's as a hobby since about 1997. I'll be putting this on my bedroom chest of drawers as a means to watch my Blu-Ray movie collection over the network. It's replacing a small, but still too big, PC that's there now. I have a laptop with HDMI and Blu-Ray drive that I use on trips to watch movies and TV shows on the motel TV set. This isn't cheap, by any means, but it is much smaller than a laptop, and stays hooked up to my TV set. I have a total of $500 in it including the OS and wireless keyboard/mouse. The laptop I purchased was $700 and I had to buy an SSD to put in it for another $100. I bought this because it is small and novel and because I wanted it.

I looked at the pictures of the Vilano bike and I can see where the difference in price is. It looks like you would pay more, and you will get more. I own the "Hybrid Performance Bike", and it is doing what I was wanting it to do.

Having never seen the $100 stove in person. It looks like the main functional difference is the knobs to control the flame. By looking at them it is possible that they only turn a rotation or so, Whereas the One i Have can turn many times over. The only downfall is that sometimes can be hard to dial the flame way down low.

I would buy the more expensive one. My grandson has it in FL so I can't measure it, but he loves it.

$964? I paid $500 for it. Almost a year ago. BTW...I'm a professional remodeler and I've not taken my big 10" SCMS out of storage yet because this is so good, but I'd be hard pressed to pay almost $1000 for it.

Yea, he's about 7" off the castle base. Right at 9" when he's on it. I actually like the new Legends version better if you're comparing them. It's the same size and you can probably find it much cheaper.

Why go through the bother? The price-point of this Acer is so low, it wouldn't make much financial sense to try building your own server. When you add the cost of the case, motherboard, RAM, hard drive, network card, and then the cost of the Home Server operating system (which you have to bother yourself with to install on a headless device), what would really be gaining? Far easier, IMO, to just pull the trigger on either this Acer or something else similar (HP has a low-cost server, too, though it's got less features than the Acer, which is why I went with Acer).

Thanks for the reply. If you're right, it's odd that it's the one with the facial recognition that is cheaper---maybe there's some other difference?

If you compare prices you'll find you can buy this upgraded unit for around the same price as the older unit if you're including shipping. In my case I didn't need $35 worth of stuff at this time... and this unit actually wound up costing me $2 less than the older one by the time shipping was paid. Pro-shopping... it's almost an artform. :D
