Disney Properties 2023 - Rumors & Discussion
OttoRiver replied to Huigberts Builds's topic in LEGO Licensed
I love everything but the torso on Snow White. The sparkles are odd but moreso when they are clumped around the shoulders and not around any other part of the bodice. Also a beige/gold line down the center would have been accurate and better than a blue line. Would like to see it with the collar but holding out hope the Dwarf's Cottage version would have a more accurate version. Also noticing that the stickered panels in the castle are murals of Tiana and Snow White. I imagine the others would be Rapunzel and Cinderella but there are only 4. Reallly hoping this doesn't mean no 4 more figures and more that the panels are interchangeable with other princess murals not shown. -

I said this a while ago, but they could have given Tiana her blue dress for the CMF series and saved the green dress to match Naveen here. The blue dress would even make more sense with her accessories being a frog and her Tiana's Place sheet, both of which she has in the blue dress scene in the film. I think the castle designer and cmf team may not have been in contact which is where the reissue happened. -

That's if the leaker didn't confuse Rapunzel for Aurora. If they did, its possible there are no other figures to see. -

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 -

Skull Rock? Hook, Smee, Peter, Wendy, Crocodile. Skull facade with some rocky ledges and craggy rocks on the backside to stage a fight. In other news, the Lego Ideas Disney contest ended submissions so we have another potential set coming from there. I doubt it will take any of the unaccounted for set numbers though. -

If we go by the running theory that the Villains picked have to have hero Minifigures already produced/set for production then the candidates would be: Yokai, Lady Tremaine, Prince Hans, Gantu, Shan Yu, Governor Ratcliffe, Te Ka, Strombolli, The Coachman, Honest John, Gideon. I could see Prince Hans, Lady Tremaine, Shan Yu, and a Madam Mim if Merlin ends up popping up somewhere in minifig form. -

Nope. Checked on June 1 and my nearest Lego store didn't have it in. They also didn't have any of the new Friends or Ninjago sets either so feel like it was a supply chain issue. -

I'm shocked we have pics of the Advent Calendars releasing in September but no pics of the Castle or Micro Agrabah for that matter. Only 1 minifig leak from the bunch. Strong leak prevention on Lego's part. -

Belle and Beast are confirmed in my book by the presence of Gaston's minifig. I can't see them including him there unless they had plans for Belle and Beast to appear in a set also. That means its essentially 5 couples fighting it out for the last spot if Mickey and Walt aren't the last 2. Ariel & Eric: Strong chance here, especially as we haven't had a classic animation Ariel anywhere in the lineup so far and a human Ariel and Eric would be original minifigures Jasmine & Aladdin: Slightly less here if Prince Ali ends up being the minifig in the micro Agrabah but diversity may push them here. Pocahontas & John Smith: Not likely. Pocahontas has only 1 iconic outfit and she's wearing it in the CMF. She does get a ballgown in the sequel but John Rolfe ends up her love interest and I don't think the general public would want her with anyone other than John. Mulan & Li Shang: I think Shang's lack of a 'prince' outfit makes this unlikely as well. Mulan in her reflection outfit with dual sided face (one with makeup, one without) would fit well here but Shang would stand out in his military garb (his only outfit in the film) Rapunzel & Eugene : Likely to happen if there are no plans for a Rapunzel Tower. If tower than I don't see them popping up here. -

I think its good for a GWP, nice projector and the Mickey sketch tile is nice. More happy that this takes him and Minnie out of the speculation for the Castle minifigures and gives a spot to one last Prince and Princess pair. -

I assume the prices on 43230 and 43224 were switched as 43230 is the $99 set. I hope the $120 set is a detailed Rapunzel Tower with minifigs of Rapunzel, Flynn, Mother Gothel, and a Pascal and Maximus thrown in. Would be nice to see especially if Rapunzel doesn't show up in the Castle. I feel like they will want to get all of the Disney Princesses out before they are through. I'm just hoping for no more brickbuilt characters/objects. There are some nice builds or characters they haven't touched that i'd love to see -

Yeah, I figured the leak had the skirt piece on backwards, but it got me thinking about how odd to not continue the sparkles, hip bustles onto the back of the skirt as well. The princesses in the CMF didn't have back printing for their skirts either and I was unsure if there was a design reason to not include it or if Lego had just stopped the practice all together. Last I can recall having back printing on the skirt was Tan We from 75333 which came out August of last year so maybe a new rule? -

Has Lego stopped doing back printing for the new dress pieces? I know there were none in the CMF line but seeing Cinderella here without it makes me realize I haven't seen them do printing ont he slope of the dress for a while. -

Looks like the Cinderella minifig has leaked. Kind of bummed its not in white/silver but I guess it was to be expected. -
I doubt they would want to replace this line with Sonic just yet. I would imagine they would want to see how Sonic fares on its first wave before they end this product line first. Would be just as odd to refresh the line with minifigures after all of the money/effort put into this iteration of the characters.

Is that why I haven't seen them? Been popping into my Target all week but they aren't on the shelves. Oddly enough, they had about 12 of the Muppets CMF near the check out. -

The odd choices you mentioned is what is driving a lot of speculation as to the other sets. The Queen of Hearts is odd on her own but makes more sense if a Mad Tea Party set with Mad Hatter, March Hare, White Rabbit, and Alice pops up later in the line. We've already seen the new Maleficent pop up for Aurora and the Disney Castle and Old Hag have given more purpose to the Evil Queen being included in the CMF. -

That's true. Wonder if the Wreck-It Ralph or Monster's Inc would lend itself to modular well. As for Ideas, we do have the Hocus Pocus set coming this year and the Ideas contest looks to be set to release before the 100 year is up so both are set there. -

Strictly looking at Minifigure characters I did my best but probably missed some. Note: Counting the Objects/animal sidekicks we have gotten from the minidoll line just because I doubt we will get anything better than that for a minifigure anyways and tried to go back as far as I could. Classic: 13 (Mickey & Friends, Ducktales, Oswald) Golden: 8 (Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia) Silver: 14 (Cinderella, Peter Pan, Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland, 101 Dalmatians) Bronze: 7 (Robin Hood, Winnie the Pooh) Renaissance: 23 (Aladdin, Hercules, Mulan, Pocahontas, Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Experimental(Post-Renaissance): 2 (Lilo & Stitch....and I counted both Stitch's) Revival: 12 (Princess and the Frog, Frozen, Moana, Big Hero 6) -

Home from the dentist on novocaine so I did a quick run through BrickHeadz - Disney BrickHeadz Duplo - 3 in 1 Magical Castle 4+ - Celebration Train System - UP House CMF - Disney 100 CMF Lego Icons - Villain Icons Creator - Disney Duos D2C - Disney Castle Minidoll - Enchanted Treehouse Dots/Brick Sketches - Disney Animation Icons Architecture - Micro Agrabah What I can see them missing is Technic, Speed Champions, Busts, UCS, buildable figures. Anything else? -

My guess is the $120 is the Heroes Icon set to match the Villains Icons $100 could be a Rapunzel tower. Might be a little less detailed than wanted but for a decent exterior and hopefully Rapunzel, Eugene, and Gothel it would be worth it. $20 is throwing me. Feel like a Sugar Rush racing car with Vanellope and Ralph would work but I doubt they would put it at a low cost point. From how the line has gone so far, feels like they are trying to hit every Lego category with a Disney version so I wonder what exactly it left from the Lego group to cover. -

Honestly, a Festival of Fools set would work. The colors, small but cohesive builds, good selection of characters -

That sounds fun, but looks like no new molds are being considered. Anyone know a good existing hat mold for a Jolly Holiday Mary Poppins? -

Do we know what demographic even got the surveys? I wonder if responses weren't what Lego was looking for in order to produce the sets, like not enough said they were willing to pay the listing price for the Deku Tree set so Lego doesn't see it as a viable product. Then again, 2024 is a ways away and no news doesn't necessarily mean cancelled. -

Feel like with some torso printing and head sculpting, the new Dreamzzz bodies would work for an updated Piglet if they ever chose to revisit that franchise.
