Here's some of my ideas from some Disney LEGO sets:

1. Disney Monorail set
2. Disney Main Street set
3. Mindstorms Walle
4. Disney/Pixar 'Cars' race track (based on Lego 8364 Racers: Multi Challenge Race Track)

What would you like to see made?

hmm... your ideas are nice... but i don't think the license is for the 'themepark'... the license itself should be for the movies.

for me, i would like some of the memorable scenes/locations from the movies:

Aladdin: Aladdin and Jasmine on the carpet (singing A Whole New World)
Beauty & the Beast: The big ballroom scene with the song.
The Little Mermaid: Ariel's sea cove
Tarzan: Tarzan treehouse (I think it would be a really fun set)
Mulan: The Chinese palace
Pochahontas: one of those British ships in the beginning of the film.
The Lion King: MINIFIG SCALE LIONS!!
Hunchback of Notre Dame: duh! Notre Dame Cathedral
Hercules: so many possibilities.
Lilo & Stitch: I just really want a minifig version of Stitch.

I don't know. According to Brickipedia, the new Disney subthemes will be Cars, Prince of Persia, and Toy Story. However, even though I have two small kids, I must admit that I've not seen any of those films, so I don't know what to suggest as far as sets go.

You have never seem Toy Story. You must be some kind of Communist. Just kidding. It is a great movie for kids and parents alike. You should definitely see it. Also, Cars was good, but not great. Both are Disney-Pixar movies, which are always really good. Prince of Persia comes out next year, and is based on the video game.

I agree that the themes should be movie, not theme park, oriented. I would much rather buy a set based off of Pirates of the Caribbean than the monorail at Disney World.

I'm going to disagree on this one. I would love theme park based sets. :wub: They could do the monorail, Cinderella's Castle, Thunder Mountain (with the new 4 wide track pieces), The Tower of Terror. This would literally be a dream come true as I love the Disney Parks and have been at least once every year of my life. :wub:

Well, since I'm such a big fan of Disney and PIXAR movies (especially PIXAR!), I would welcome pretty much any set from any of them. :classic:
However, I would very much like to see sets based on The Incredibles! There are so many cool and iconic vehicles that they could base sets on! For example:
  • A medium sized set with Mr. Incredible (in his old, blue costume) and his Incredimobile (or "Incredobile") and a bank robbers car.
  • A small set with Mr. Incredible, Syndrome, the Omnidroid 9000, some rocks, and other jungle stuff.
  • A medium sized set with Elastigirl, Violet, and Dash in their jet. This could have an explosion feature like 7198 Fighter Plane Attack.
  • A small set with Dash and a Velocipod (with Syndrome henchman) and maybe some jungle trees.
  • A large "Syndrome's Lair" playset with the room with the computer and the lava wall, the prison room, a rocket launch site, a little hangar for Velocipods or Vultures, and maybe a little monorail. Includes all Incredibles, Syndrome, some henchmen, and maybe Mirage.
  • A large set with the Omnidroid 10000 and all the Incredibles, plus Frozone, and maybe some city stuff.

Also, I agree that a set with Stitch and his little red spaceship would be extra sweet! :thumbup:

So - Please, TLG? :cry_happy:

You're contradicting yourself there. PotC is a ride at Disneyland. :tongue:
But I know what you mean, and I kinda agree. Although I know that sets based on the parks could be very nice sets, I also know I wouldn't buy any. :sceptic:

I miss alternate models.

That being said there is a perfect solution here. I would love to see a Taj Mahal-sized set featuring the various Disney park castles as alternate models (Sleeping Beauty's, Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant (Sleeping Beauty's other castle), and Cinderella's castle). The Sleeping Beauty castle and Cinderella castles are in two parks while the second Sleeping Beauty castle is unique to Paris. Given the ornate appearance of each and the similar colour-schemes, this would make for an amazing Creator set.

I don't mind licences but many seem to simply come and go. Given the significant history of the Disney animation studio and its theme parks I would love to see a set that pays proper homage.

LEGO should make Disney park theme exclusive sets. Considering all those loyal Disney fans from around the world who would jump at the chance to have their beloved Main street recreated in LEGO form and have a LEGO Disney monorail to boot.

These theme park sets would sell well, especially if they were Disneyland park exclusives.

I would prefer a set about the climax, with a cliff, trees and a bit baseplates and Ratcliffe, Pocahontas, John Smith, Thomas, a few britishs and indians. Oh, a sound brick with this scene would be nice.^^

Frollos chimney with Frollo, Esmeralda (flame version made out of transparent plastic) and red coated singers or Frollos carriage with the golden knight (forgot the name), two knights and Frollo.

But I guess that this sets are only wishful thinking. LEGO will probably only do Toy Story and Prince of Persia.

Quote of the period it takes me to think of another quote:

I would seriously consider a Disney Monorail set if they ever thought of building one :thumbup:

I have bought the Takara Tomy "Tomica" version of the Tokyo Disneyland monorail (about Hot Wheel size) when I was in Tokyo Disneyland as shown below. So if Lego wants to build a Lego monorail, I highly believe that those Disney guys will allow them too, or even pester Lego to do it!!!

If there is a big reason for Lego to come out with a monorail set using the old monorail tracks (or just invest in whole new types), I think this is the BEST reason I can think of. Imagine this set selling in Disneyland; you sat the monorail, now you can build one at home!! :thumbup:

Other thing I can think of:-
1) A REAL Lego "Black Pearl" instead of the rip-off of the BSB
2) Pirate ships like the flying dutchman, etc. Imagine the ships, forts, minifigures Lego can produce that will put the Megalblock version to shame!
3) Buzz Lightyear monorail set, base, vehicle and minis
4) Collectors sets like Green Grocer but have buildings like in Disneyland

I know thats my biggest problem with licenses. TLC seems to get one build a few sets for it and drop it way to fast. I would love to see the Disney license and the Indiana Jones license continue as long as Star Wars. Look at Batman those sets where way to short, as they stopped shortly after the release of The Dark Night when they could have had a huge growth in sales.

I can totally see a "Cave of Wonders" set happening, with Jafar, Jago, Aladdin, Abu, Carpet, and Genie (who would be a big, troll-like figure; the current troll arms would be perfect for him). The set would include lots of booby traps and shiny pearl-gold treasure pieces, and a trans-red diamond piece for Abu to steal, plus, of course, a new lamp piece. :sweet:

Defnintely agree with Oky on having Incredibles sets. They would make the best figs, and the sets would be just brilliant. Plus I really want another retro style robot!
