In 1923, two brothers founded a new animation studio that would eventually become one of the most beloved companies in the world. Today we know it as Walt Disney Animation Studios and it continues to bring magical moments to millions of people around the world.
The Walt Disney Company has been around for more than a century and to celebrate its centenary, we look back with you on our collaboration with Disney. 
A year later, two of the world's most famous animated characters were released in LEGO bricks for the first time. Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse appeared in 2000 in the LEGO Juniors sets Mickey's Fire Engine and Minnie's Birthday Party.
Mickey Mouse may be the most famous Disney character, but he was not the first. That honor went to Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, a character featured in one of our 2023 LEGO BrickHeadz™ anniversary sets.
More than ten years later we made our first set together with Disney and Pixar. Along with the release of Toy Story 3 we released a number of Toy Story sets in 2010, including Build Your Own Buzz (7592), Pizza Planet Truck Rescue (7598), Soldiers on Patrol (7595), Woody and Buzz to the Rescue (7590) and more.
Then we traveled on to Radiator Springs and out of the world of Lightning McQueen and Mater Cars , the wildly popular animated film from Disney and Pixar. Just like the film, our LEGO DUPLO® Cars range for toddlers is still very popular today.
After our race on Route 66, we set sail for the Caribbean together with Jack Sparrow, Captain Barbossa, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann. The first film in this famous series premiered in 2003 and introduced us to the most legendary pirate we have ever seen.
We have released several sets based on the Pirates of the Caribbean films, including the very popular set The Black Pearl. Parlay!
Pretty much since its inception, Disney has been creating enchanting female heroines. It all started in 1937 with Snow White and in 1950 the world was introduced to Cinderella. Both paved the way for future Disney princesses.
In 2012 we released the first LEGO DUPLO | with a Cinderella set Disney Princess ™ line aimed at toddlers. Since then, we have also made Disney Princess sets for older children with Mulan, Ariel, Tiana, Rapunzel and many more.

When we launched LEGO Ideas, our platform where fans can propose ideas themselves, it didn't take long before our first Disney set appeared there too. The LEGO Ideas WALL•E set was designed by Angus MacLane, an animator who worked on the film at the time. It wasn't the last time WALL•E would see the light of day: this year he appears together with EVE in a new LEGO BrickHeadz set.
Whether it is a villain or a hero, all characters in Disney stories can be called iconic. In tribute to some of these popular figures, we released a LEGO | in 2016 Disney minifigure series out with Alice in Wonderland, Ghost Out Aladdin , Peter Pan, Ursula, Maleficent, Donald Duck and many more.
And in 2023 you can have a completely new series of LEGO | Disney minifigures welcome...
One of Disney and Pixar's most moving stories is that of Carl Fredricksen from the film ' Up '. This film tells the story of a 78-year-old balloon salesman who ties enough balloons to his house to float to South America and fulfill a promise to his wife. This moving, poignant story is now also available as a beautiful LEGO | Disney set that fans of the film will really love.
Over the years, our partnership with Disney has led to some of our most exciting building experiences (unfortunately we can't list them all or it would keep you busy for hours). The good news is that you can expect a lot more.
This year we are releasing a number of unique commemorative sets. One of these is a movie camera honoring Walt Disney's incredible film legacy.
"Since we launched our first LEGO DUPLO Winnie the Pooh range in 1999, LEGO | Disney has guaranteed fun playtime for Disney and LEGO fans of all ages. From adventurous journeys on the high seas and courageous treasure hunts to the enchanting magic of Disney Princess castles, LEGO | Disney has been enchanting families around the world for many years by bringing fantasy and exciting adventures to life using LEGO bricks." - Casper Rafn Voigt, Head of Product, LEGO | Disney, at the LEGO Group.
And if you've seen a Disney movie recently, you've probably noticed the subject matter of the second set.
It is a unique set based on the iconic castle that everyone loves. With turrets that reach high into the sky, fireworks exploding everywhere and numerous Disney minifigures, this set is a real must for Disney fans.
