Congratulations!!!
I saw one on the dusty shelf of a toy store but didn't buy it and now regret it. Is the older model better than the newer princess castles? Should I pick it up if it is still there? 
You need to get it. It makes the new one pale in comparison. It is way over twice as big as the new one - more like 3 or 4 times as big if you were to calculate all the pieces.
AND
You can put it together in two different ways (the instructions show you both ways). Word of warning - keep the extra pieces you do not use on the second castle in a zip-lock bag in the box so you do not misplace them.
I have two of these and you can put them together to make even larger castles!!!
You can use your steck walls to build a wall around the princess castle so you can put all your stuff together and have it work. That way you can justify why you need to buy more steck castle pieces/sets for your daughter(s) who doesn't really play with the medieval sets on their own.
