Launching on September 1 for £89.99 / $99.99 / €99.99,
We've spotted quite a few films referenced in the set, including on the film reel and elsewhere in the set. Here's a look at everything we've found and seemingly every film Easter egg in the model unless there's a small secret hidden somewhere.
1920 – 1939
Starting things off, Steamboat Willie and Snow White represent the earliest portion of Disney's History with the multiplane camera set-up used to make The Old Mill short featured as a side build. Thanks to 43222 Disney Castle, the presented minifigures all exist in available sets. Steamboat Willie is also referenced through an animator's desk hidden inside the camera model.
1940 – 1949
Representing 1940 to 1949 are Pinnochio, Fantasia, Dumbo and Bambi. While the first two are only included on the film reel, Dumbo and Bambi are featured as exclusive figures in
1950 – 1959
Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland and Sleeping Beauty have been picked to represent the decade starting in 1950. This is the first sign of a LEGO Fairy Godmother minifigure, but she's had a couple of mini-dolls before.
