Hello everyone, 

Today I am happy to share a small series of 4 MOCs meant to complete the existing "line" of microscale Disney sets such as the mini-castle 40478 and the mini-haunted mansion 40521.

These are all inspired by locations found at Disneyland Paris, a place I visited many, many times...

mini-Thunder Mountain

This model holds a secret, if you lift the house you can access a crypt where you can place a minifigure.

This model also has a special feature, the back holds a small monochrome scene inspired by the Twilight Zone TV series.

Instructions for these 4 models are available on Rebrickable (the mini-Thunder Mountain instructions are FREE) or on Planet GBC where you can also find custom kits.

I hope you guys like these, which one is your favorite? Should I keep going, and if so, which location should I do next?

These are extraordinary! I like the little "plaques" up in the corner as much as the builds themselves! I would love to see more, but as I'm not especially familiar with Disneyland Paris, I couldn't say which attraction to tackle next.

Thank you!

The plaques were a fun side project for these builds. They were all created using Studio and I kinda cheated a bit... many of the elements I used do not exist in the colors I picked. I also sort of "created" new elements by deactivating the collision detection and fusing elements together. For instance, the head of the vampire uses a hair piece that has horns going through it - this element does not exist!

The design of the plaques was inspired by elements seen in the parks.

The vampire one is placed at the entrance of the Phantom Manor :

Here's the Hollywood Tower plaque:

For the other 2, I took inspiration from a few places and blended them together.

Your builds are incredible! I've never been to Disneyland Paris, but your creations are really giving me a sense of what it's like. I’m actually planning my first trip there this November. I've been reading up on things to help prepare for my visit and found this guide helpful: https://gowithguide.com/blog/tourism-in-paris-statistics-2024-your-quick-travel-guide-to-the-city-of-lights-5744 Can't wait to experience these attractions in real life!

Thank you for your kind words! I hope you will enjoy your stay at Disney Paris.

If you are on Reddit, I would recommend checking the sub r/disneylandparis as this place may hold some good info on what is currently happening in the park.

As for these builds, since I posted this topic, I actually created 3 additional scenes taken from other Disneyland Paris rides!
