BacktoBricks Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 I feel like the castle is where the heroes get to hang out and the villains have to make do with a pile of giant objects. So we still don't know the last two minifigures or have I forgotten a pair? As far as I can tell we are getting Snow White, Prince Florian, Cinderella, Prince Charming, Princess Aurora, Prince Philip, Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen, Rapunzel and Eugene? So that leaves two.

Pretty much has to be Belle and the Beast I have a feeling the latter would be featured in his human form, which would be pretty sucky. Then again, I have no idea how he could be realised in beast form without a new big-fig like part. The hilarious minidoll clearly proves he cannot properly be done justice in mere minifig form either, even if they used the faun legs
chris6507 Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) Geez I hate LEGO at times. Here's the first 8-9 Disney Princesses for $5 each in CMF packets. Now if you want to complete your disney princess lineup, give us $800 to complete your set along with a repeat of a castle you already paid several hundred dollars for a few years ago! They already did this two me with the Anniversary Harry Potter figures and the crappy Hogwarts Icons set. Jerks! Edited June 15, 2023 by chris6507

Shame there isn't a unknown poly left as like it's been said she could easily come in that. I have her three little brother bears waiting.
Jarreth2 Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) Do we have an official number of minifigures at all or is it still just rumour ? The Tiana figure although nice enough looks to be a repeat of what we just got in the CMFs .. hopefully Aurora might be in blue ? The Castle itself seems to have a lot of sand blue instead of the old grey, but I realise there’s pretty much a whole new colour scheme. Overall looks great, but I’ll wait to see the whole range of pictures. It didn’t make me think ‘instant buy’ .. and still with the ‘flat back’ 🙄 Edited June 15, 2023 by Jarreth2

When the first castle came out, people were complaining that it should have featured the princesses rather than Mickey and friends plus Tinkerbell. So I‘m glad this one does, even though completing the collection isn‘t exactly cheap 13 minutes ago, BacktoBricks said: That's what I was thinking, but I would so have loved a Merida.

There‘s still at least one anniversary set left this year, so who knows

Surge Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 is it possible thee are just all the figs? Idk i feel its weird to not including the other two pairs in a pic like that hoping for a full reveal in a few hours, if not at least tomorrow

JeanGreyForever Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) I'll pick up Cinderella, Snow White, and their princes through BL. Snow White's colors seem to be movie accurate and I hope that's certainly the case in real life. I've noticed Rapunzel's hair doesn't seem very long though. The interior changes are interesting although not worth purchasing the set for. The kitchen seems expanded and explicitly Beauty and the Beast themed. Above that Rapunzel has her own room based on the tower. The room next to it seems to include an assortment of objects like the enchanted rose, genie lamp, a poster of Maui, and an oar either for Pocahontas or Moana. The ladder seems to lead to a bookshelf like the one from Beauty and the Beast. Above the spinning wheel and magic mirror rooms seems to be a room to showcase a glass slipper or storybook. The bottom floor has a Little Mermaid section, a pumpkin for Cinderella, the Sword in the Stone and a map that seems to be distinctly Chinese to represent Mulan. The forest section with orange and purple/pink seems to represent Pocahontas and her leaves. Edited June 15, 2023 by JeanGreyForever
OttoRiver Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 I am hoping they just cut the other 2 couples out of the photo and those aren't the only ones we are getting. Surprised to see Rapunzel and Eugene here and I think that tanks any idea of a Rapunzel tower set but they look to be reusing the Tiana minifigure here so who knows. I love some of the new interior additions but don't think it will justify buying. Hoping official photos drop today so we can get a better look/confirmation on minifigures
BacktoBricks Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 I really hope we get a leak of more than just the bum side today.
Surge Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 i think we r getting our hopes a little too high with a new aurora, its possible, but seeing tiana i would not count on it hope the disney 100 promo is also revealed soon so we can get a purchase requirement for that that is also the first right?
JeanGreyForever Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 Florian's hair is very inaccurate. Too flat and generic and too light a shade of brown. Flynn's hair color is how dark Florian's should have been. Snow White will need a red cape as well, but that's an easy fix with the Imperial Guard capes.

Good point, I considered that as well but I've only seen Raya once and I couldn't remember what the map from that movie looked like. Because the dragon is red, I assumed Mulan for its opening titles.
doclord Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 The last two should be Aurora and Phillip as per the original leak.

If they did, its possible there are no other figures to see.

BigHobbit Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 There are more changes than I thought! Glad I didn't get the original. More archways, may be a spinning dance floor for Cinderella and her Prince Charming, and the pearl blue instead of dark blue looks nice as well.
Brickity Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) At first glance it feels like I’m looking at the exact same castle from 2016, sigh. This one is obviously much better and feels more complete with more unique details, but I truly didn’t care about this layout in 2016 nor do I do now. Hooray for tangled figs, so strange they didn’t show the other figures here in case more of them are included. Edited June 15, 2023 by Brickity
RichardGoring Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 I know it's the same source material, but it feels so similar, it's sort of a disappointment. The interiors probably look a bit better, but there are things on the old castle that I prefer. To be fair, they had to do this, as it's so iconic to Disney. The colour scheme will probably feel a bit better from the front. Might be hard to justify getting it for anyone who has the original. But pleased that people continue to have the chance to get a set like this.
stroud1492 Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 Wish they would’ve just given Rapunzel short hair instead of that god awful waist length braid. Tiana has a large wardrobe too, they definitely could’ve given her another outfit :(
