Okay time for a chime in.
These sets do leave somethings to be desired, for those of us who were hopeing for a serries 3 CMF type line. However to say these sets are to" Candy "? They are anything if "candy". These are great parts packs, and in reallity not loaded with as many pinks as you may think. I am not fond of these sets figures, but I just give them to my daughter, minus hair that I can use.
I finally bought the treetop hideaway and in all honesty I love it. The tree builds up good and sturdy and looks to be a good defence post, from a classic standpoint. It will fit with forestmen with a couple minor changes. Mainly the folige, now dont get me wrong from a fantasy stand point I love this new color. However if you sub out dark green, red, or orange for the purples. And sub the smaller leaves for olive or drk red instead on lavander, I feal it would still look great

I am not found of the tank tred bridge. But it is a good use of the part now that it is becomeing more common. It is a good comprimise to the flimisy rope bridge like the one in the goblin king set. I may swap out for an acctual rope bridge in the future to see how it will look though. I also really like the new fence piece and hope it will be avaliable in more colors in the future. An I like that the main tree is on a 16x16 plate, as opposed to a flimsy classic base plate like in the modular sets.
I really like a couple of the play features as well. I really have nothing bad to say about this set. And for those who say this wont fit in standard castle, stay tuned. I am currently moding the set to see how it will fit

an where I am at it is looking very promissing.
I am deffinily getting a couple more for parts purposes. As well as a couple of the smaller sets too. If I find them on clearence even better.
