On November 18th, 1928 the world saw the first ever annimation of Mickey Mouse. Now LEGO wants to honor that with a special play set.
The Steamboat Willie LEGO playset will launch on the 1st of April 2019. It’s going to be quite the unique piece.
The playset will feature 751 pieces and will reconstruct the iconic scene from the animation. It will also include two minifigures.
And no, your eyes aren’t wrong, the set will be only in black and white. This is the way it’s going to commemorate the original black and white cartoon. It may seem a bit late for the playset, but that’s because it’s coming from the fans.
The playset is an idea which gained popularity on the LEGO Ideas platform where fans can create and share their LEGO inventions. If they get enough votes, then they become real playsets.
