Disney Magic
Belle’s Enchanted Castle set from the Disney theme was released in conjunction with the new “Beauty and the Beast” movie, capturing iconic scenes and characters from the beloved story. The set was well-received upon its release, particularly among younger builders and fans of the movie. Although some reviewers felt that the build could have included more iconic scenes from the story, it was appreciated for its faithful representation of key elements such as the Enchanted Rose, Belle’s book, and the swiveling dance table. The set holds a special place among Adult Fans of LEGO (AFOLs) and Disney enthusiasts who continue to enjoy its nostalgic appeal.
Fan Reactions and Raves
The Belle’s Enchanted Castle set received mixed reviews. One review from yjcha2 mentioned, “Simple build with many large pieces. Younger children will need help with building the characters as there are plenty of 1×1 pieces like flowers and even the build-up characters.” The author also noted, “After build, the castle is smaller than expected from the box/packaging. For the RRP of AUD$75, i would expect more scenes like a library or the snow-laden garden with birds or even the ballroom with dining table to seat Beauty and the Beast on either end will be lovely.” Despite this, the set was lauded for including “most memorable scenes with iconic Enchanted Rose, mirror showing Belle’s father – Maurice, Belle’s book, many characters and swiveling dance table & turntable.” The review article also emphasized that the set is “fun and has most memorable scenes” and remarked that it is “A must have for any Beauty and the Beast fan” (yjcha2).
