I saw this last week at TRU and almost picked it up. The price scared me off though. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against paying for sets I want but this set didn't really have a whole lot in it that justified buying the set.
Holstein Cows
Brown Ladder
Tan Fedora
Bricklink. Definately Bricklink.
*edited for correct bovine breed
Has anyone seen this yet?
There should be great hopes for cows of various colours to appear in many more sets of the upcoming years.
After all, they designed them (PERFECTLY! in my opinion, they couldn't have done them better!) and created their molds. Now they should use those molds and print billions of cows. Unfortunately City/farm and Castle are the only two themes with reasons for cows at the moment. But after they created molds for cats, dogs, parrots and owls, we've seen these animals pop up in new sets all the time, not to mention horses which after 25+ years without any change they nowadays haunt anyone's collection
So definitely good hopes for the future, that cows will become more and more common, and not restricted to 80-100$ sets only.
