Over at Eurobricks, CM4SCI posted a source revealed the next direct to consumer (aka "exclusive") will be Cinderella's Castle.  Brickfan reports it will contain minifigs (not the doll-like ones from Princess and Friends). Maybe a Sept, release...

By the way, I found this page at brickset. I expect it will be based on the castle at Disney World or the 2015 movie. Likely the WDW version  I also think this set will be huge if the design Is better than the last 3 2016 D2C sets. Disneymania will sweep through the LEGO community.

I'd imagine the cindy carriage will skyrocket. 41053 Cinderella's Dream Carriage.

It's HER castle and she's not included.

I consider it Prince Charming's castle, unless she took it in the divorce. 

Looks like you can still get the carriage for cheap. Get em now while you can.

Nope, she took over when he married her.  He would loose it if he divorces her.  There is a big difference

Me too.  But I've had 3 cups.  The holders of 41053 really couldn't have asked for a better Christmas gift than this castle with no Cindy included.  It's HER castle and she's not included.  Plus, her horse and carriage out front would look great.  

Speaking of, @ravenb99, would you happen to have one that you could shoot a pic of sitting in front of your castle?

Actually I do went upstairs in the warehouse loft where my daughter puts her built stuff and found it.  Will photo later in front of it.  Think the colors are to pastel kid themed to look good though.  Actually thought of buying a lot of carriages after it was announced but refrained because I didn't think it would fit well.

I threw in a Cpt Hook with mine. Maleficent would go well to, if you've been to Disney World.

That's fine.  I have a crate full of 41055 as well.

I am feeling a carriage remake / re-release with minifig princess and proper horse(s).   But maybe I have been hanging out at 75159 thread for too long

I saw a leaked pic of the new UCS Cindy carriage complete with cheese wedge and different hair.

Except this time the cheese wedge would make sense, assuming it is in yellow and located near the driver

Boxed, mine weighed out at 15.75 lbs. this is a beast to ship. I used the Amazon box my UCS TIE came in. Perfect fit, just enough room for some bubble wrap and packing paper.
People selling under $400 are up for a big surprise.

Guess it took three days: TOOS

 

 

Here you go @loghamel

 

Does anyone know the dimensions of the Disney Castle box?

Roughly 24x19x7.  A case of 2 is 24x20x14.

How much do you think it'll sell for during holidays or even after that?

One day shipping from Alaska? Unless he works for Fedex, he's in for a rude awakening:

He must cause I see he's offered that before.

I wish I hadn't watched the Jang video. I have one on the way, will probably open it now.

Same thing happened to me with the TIE.

You guys are pushovers. I didn't need a video to convince me to open up both of those.

I am jaded as my son and I are working on a MOC for a Lego Ideas submission, and I am not instinctively a MOC'er, so I just appreciate even more the brilliance in a set like this. Work of art.
