Grecian Unicorn Costume (2004-2007)

[Colonial Rose]

This set includes a saddle/harness with attached wings, and a bridle with and attached horn. I got this on clearance with a free shipping code so that I would have the full Grecian Halloween set. I don't have an AG horse yet so I can't say how this will look on one, but I think it is a very nice, well made set, especially for $4. The main piece is a saddle/harness thing, it is a soft padded aqua satin saddle with girth straps made of aqua satin over a stiffer material with a gold square design to match the Grecian Princess Costume painted on, attached to that are gold metal stirrups on aqua satin ribbon, gold lame over foam two-layer pegasus wings, and a collar for the horse in the aqua satin over stiffer material with the gold painted design and metal rings to attach the chariot to, it is attached to the saddle/harness piece by an aqua satin ribbon that runs along the front between the legs. The bridle is aqua satin with the gold painted designs, a band of elastic to go around the horse's jawline, an attached gold lame unicorn horn and aqua satin ribbon reins. A

Grade: B

Pros: It's a very cute set and very detailed. It does not fit on the OG horses but can easily be made to fit with a couple small pieces of velcro and a strap of fabric to enlarge it.

Cons: The stirrups are metal and are very heavy. As they dangle they wack against things. I worry about my DD's friends breaking something with them.

We drag this set out every Halloween and honestly, I feel like I need an engineering degree to get it on the horse. I don't know how a kid manages alone. Still, it's cute enough for the $4 I paid for it three years ago, and I certainly wouldn't pay much mark-up on eBay considering how much it was discounted. Cute idea, but complicated execution merit a grade of C.
