I have been posting June set guesses on S3 forum, since last week, that it looked like it might be a circus. After seeing the wagons it now looks (to me anyway) like a traveling circus.
Sometimes I don’t know what exactly IS the difference between a circus & a carnival, except maybe for the live animals?? Growing up, one of my cousins loved Barnum & Baily Circus, but I didn’t. Even at an early age, I didn’t like the animals cooped up & mistreated.
(which was usually hidden from the public).
Also, there lately seems to be a recent effort of reintroducing Sims 1 items in the Store (example is the Forgotten Ironwork Fence, & maybe now the cotton candy machine – though it looks like the snow-cone maker)

It would be funny if the other side of the wagons had a lion or elephant in it, behind a caged front. Maybe it would be similar to the cows set, w/ limited walk-around space? LOL!

And what’s up with the wagons looking like Monte Vista Store world?
Sneaky advertising? Or coincidence? Or a sneaky hint?

And I really wish they would “officially” unlock the corn :'(

I hope TS4 Has NPC’s that can serve the Sims like TS2. Idk TS3 Just seems so empty with the lots and things you have to do yourself. It’s like your own, empty personal circus..

This doesn’t excite me, although no store content does anymore for TS3 to be honest. All I see is a remake of the snow cone machine with different meshes to give the allure of cotton candy. I’m betting the sim will snatch the cotton candy, lick it like a ice cream pop from the dreaded ice cream truck that came with Pets(?), and then glitch to that happy dance animation they do randomly before standing there and staring out into space again. Nope, can’t say I’m excited.

Personally I agree with CodyIsInLove. But I’m wondering why you would think Cotton Candy would push this towards circus verses carnival?

I’m looking forward to this set! I’ve loved the past few, but I never bought them (and I don’t intend to), but this may be one of the sets I do buy!

Perhaps something with can throw (sorry don’t know the exact word) or lottery booth. And the animals are big soft toys to win.
