After releasing several themed sets commemorating Disney's 100th anniversary, LEGO has finally unveiled its ultimate flagship product! The previously leaked "43222 Disney Castle" has been officially announced and is scheduled for release on July 4, 2023.
This set comprises a total of 4837 pieces, and once assembled, it reaches an astonishing height of 80 cm! Both in terms of piece count and height, it boasts more luxurious specifications than the 2016 version of the "Disney Castle". The front exterior features more gold elements compared to the 2016 version, adding a touch of luxury while also making the overall layering more distinct. The abundance of pink pieces and the method of constructing the castle walls also feel very fresh. In terms of architectural form, it is similar to its predecessor, allowing you to enjoy the intricate interior details by turning it around.
Notably, the minifigure selection for this 43222 set focuses on "Princess & Prince" pairings, including Cinderella & Prince Charming, Snow White & Prince Florian, Princess Tiana & Prince Naveen, and Rapunzel & Flynn Rider. The interior details are inspired by numerous classic animated films, such as a stunning ballroom, a rotating dance floor, the spinning wheel from "Sleeping Beauty" in the fireplace, a magic mirror, the dining table setup from "Beauty and the Beast", the mops and water buckets from "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", and a screening room-style chamber. With so many exciting elements awaiting your hands-on assembly, Disney toy enthusiasts are truly in for a treat (and a potential hit to their wallets)!
