Since there are 2 small Lilo & Sticht sets coming in June too and having in mind the huge success of last eyar movie, I wonder if the 18+ set could be base don the franchise too. Maybe Jumba and Pleakly spaceship?

Santa has brought me Beast's castle 🥰 It seems so far that 2026 won't be very interesting in terms of Disney minifigs. Hopefully there are more sets coming that we haven't heard of yet. Also, after watching Zootopia 2, I can't believe we haven't got any sets based on that saga. I wish we could get a full CMF series for Zootopia:

I hope we continue the trend of the last years and we get at least a smaller set like the ones from Peter Pan, Up and Lilo & Stitch and a larger set like the ones from Snow White, Nightmare before Christmas and Beauty and the Beast.

It looks cute, but not a must have.

I just read about 40857 being a Disney gift with purchase 12+. I wonder what could it be and which set would it be attached to!

Slinky Dog and Mr Potato are the only characters from the original movie that never got minifigures, right?

I'm surprised the Jungle Book doesn't have any Lego representation yet. Maybe one of the classic sets is a jungle temple with Baloo, Mogwli, Bagheera and King Louie. I'm also worried that we haven't heard of any Zootopia sets for this Christmas with the new movie. A police car, the ice cream shop, the police department, the train station or metro train, the rabbit village, Gazelle's concert... There are so many possibilities for Zootopia and not making any set seems like a wasted opportunity.

Could the Pixar sets be for Toy Story 5? Or Toy Story sets are their own theme?

The Wall-e set looks amazing! I don't buy buildable characters, but I wouldn't mind getting this if I have room to put it somewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised if they reuse Gaston, Lefou and even Maurice and make the tavern.

The lamp looks great, but I'll skip it for not having minings. I need to do some savings haha

I just saw it. I don't like that Figaro, to me it looks just like any cat. The Lucifer we hit recently looks better.

Bo Peep looks great. I'm not so sure about the sheep though. This is a good set for new collectors since the 4 main characters are included in the same cheap set.

Figaro, Pluto, Dante, Bolt, Pua, Bambi, Dumbo, Digo, Eyeore... They have a lot of animals to pick if they want to do more buildable characters.

Not exactly a new set, but the new Lego store under construction in Disneyland Paris has this amazing animated decoration: https://x.com/DLPReport/status/1902747667882553704?t=itg7haxxUKE7_dyfarwdiw&s=19

The trailer for Lilo and Stitch's live action movie is finally out and this film will probably be a huge box office hit. If so, hopefully Lego plans more sets in the future with Jumba and Pleakly.

I've been thinking about the returning minifigures. First we got the Villains set with Maleficent, Gaston, the Witch and Jafar as a genie. Gaston and the Witch have been reused, and we could say that Maleficent was meant to be reused in the cancelled dragon set. Jafar as the genie was probably meant to be exclusive and complement the CMF figs (Aladdin, Jasmine, human Jafar and Genie). Then we got the Magic of Disney set with Lilo, Belle, Gepetto and Bruno. Belle and Lilo have been reused. Gepetto was probably meant to be exclusive and complement the CMF figs (Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket). So maybe this means that Lego has plans for reusing Bruno soon and next year we might get the Madrigal House with minifigures (unless it's cancelled and changed to minidolls like the dragon). Especially if next year we get another CMF series which includes some Encanto characters that could be reused in the set (like Tiana was reused in the castle).

Your right! We're missing all chip's brothers and sisters. EDIT: Nevermind, I just noticed there is a cupboard with them next to the kitchen.

The Beauty and the Beast Castle looks very nice and I'm happy the price is on the lower side of the rumoured price range. The set is not perfect and could be improved, but in general is pretty good. Regarding the minifigures, I'm happy to get Lefou and Maurice, although the hair for the later seems a bit odd to me (too much hair, Maurice only has hair on the sides and is mostly bald on top). As for Beast, while I don't mind his head, I find it sad that the tail piece is all the same colour. The joining part to the legs should be in the same colours as the pants. The pants aren't great either. I understand that Lego wanted the same legs for both beast and human, but the human should have gotten an extra pair of legs with stripes on the sides and more accurate boots. Belle and Gaston are great. Belle's dress is updated and Gaston has the arch now. Regarding the objects, while I think they are not perfect, they are probably the best version we've had of each of them. There's still the problem with the scale. I think I would add a round piece below Lumiere to make him taller and match Fifi and Cogsworth's height. Anyway, I'm happy to see all objects being included. In all, the only missing character is the horse, but I guess that was expected. As for the castle itself, it looks fantastic. The movie shows so many places that having them all inside the castle would be impossible unless the castle was huge. Having the ballroom and be our guest scenes taking most of the space, then a medium sized library and making Belle's room and the East Wing the smaller rooms make sense to me.

I'm really hoping for some Zootopia sets at the end of the year with the new movie.

I find that new Vaiana/Moana set too expensive. I'll try to get some Kakamora, and maybe Maui if he's not too expensive on its own. I still don't like that HeiHei model..

To be honest, I don't care about the human version of the objects. I would rather get the villagers to play recreating the kill the beast song. I always enjoyed the scene where all the objects fight defending the castle! Talking about CMF I wouldn't mind if they came with some repeated characters in alternative costumes (like human Ariel or Prince Ali) as long as the series is still a nice mix of diverse characters and brings new ones.

Lego has already made her in other minidoll sets, so I think it's possible to get her in the castle too.

She also appears in the live stage musical, and she is a crew member on Disney Speedstorm game. For me she is also an iconic character like the wardrobe or the dog. I would like to get her.

Do you think Maurice and Philippe will be added?
