The LEGO Disney theme has already seen a wide range of sets release in 2024 with the biggest, and possibly the best, of these being 43242 Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs Cottage. But now the Disney theme is expanding further with a brand new wave of models officially revealed all releasing on the 1st of June 2024. A total of 11 sets will become available for the licensed theme including two 4+ models and a brand new 18+ D2C.
Our first set is a brand new Mini Disney 12+ set of 40720 Mini Disney Sleeping Beauty Castle. Like previous models, including January 2024's 40708 Mini Disney Ariel's Palace, 40720 will retail for $39.99 with 528 pieces. Unlike the last two microscale LEGO Disney sets, we are getting a LEGO Minifigure with it unsurprisingly being Sleeping Beauty herself. She's included along with a very detailed and colourful interpretation of her castle.
The two 4+ models of this Summer wave are 43235 Ariel's Music Stage and 43254 Ariel's Crystal Cavern. Both are based on the upcoming Disney Junior show entitled 'Ariel'. The Disney Princess returns in her animated form in this series along with returning characters like Sebastian and Flounders. Both can be brick-built found in one of these two sets along with an exclusive version of Ariel and a brand-new minidoll version of Ursula.
One of the most interesting sets of the way has to be 43240 Maleficent's Dragon Form. Even though the $69.99 model includes minidolls, a brick-built version of her majestic dragon beast is an extremely detailed and fun build with new wing moulds and plenty of exclusive prints to add further details. Sleeping beauty and Prince Phillip are also included in minidoll form along with their horse Samson.
Finally, let's focus on two more highlights of the wave: our first-ever LEGO Disney Lion King sets. Both 43243 Simba The Lion King Cub and 43247 Simba will release on the 1st of June 2024 based on the 1994 film which was then recreated 25 years later. Now to celebrate 30 years, LEGO are releasing two brick-built versions of our favourite lion from the series, Simba.
43247 Simba in particular will be an exciting bestseller. The 18+ set will retail for $129.99 with 1,445 pieces used to create a brick-built version of the lion cub. Those avid LEGO fans will know that this LEGO Disney set leaked as early as last February in that infamous survey leak. Sadly, we're still waiting for official images of this set which we'll cover in a separate article but 43243 Simba The Lion King Cub is just as a fantastic build for only $19.99.
