LEGO Disney Castle - Welcome Home ! :)

August 26, 2016 4 Comments A+ a-


As I shared with you a few days ago in my post LEGO Disney Castle - BUY or PASS, I finally decided to buy this amazing set.
It's incredible how fast the LEGO shipping is. I ordered on Monday and when I came back from lunchtime yesterday I discovered a huge box right next to my desk ! :) What a lovely surprise !
Everything was perfectly packed as always. I thought that the box will be even bigger but it isn't oversized at all. The box itself is very nicely designed.

Inside the box you will find a pretty thick manual, stickers, many packets with bricks and ... one mysterious white box, which looks like a shoebox. :) But instead of bright new LEGO shoes, you will find many more bricks inside the white box, of course. Well, I hope you're not disappointed ! :)

There is a huge variety of bricks. From very small ones to quite large ones. I finally like the colour scheme of the castle when I see it on my own.

There is one thick manual with building instructions. Moreover, there is one extra two page dedicated to a review of Disney-themed features that you will find in the set.

I mentioned that you will find also stickers in the set, but there are very few of them this time.

Once I finish building of one of Modular Buildings set I bought last week, I will start with this one and I guess it will take me at least 10 evenings to complete it. At least I will have plenty of time to find a nice place to display this big set in my small apartment. :)

If you have already built this set, I will be very happy if you share with me your feelings of it in comments below.

Isn't it a great feeling when you come back to find a box has arrived from LEGO?!

Please do a review once you've finished building this. Who knows, it could tempt me to move it to a 'BUY' rating!

I thought the box was pretty big, but it was definitely heavy. I think the instruction book alone weighs a few pounds. Enjoy the build! My brother and I broke it up into 5 evenings, but we were able to take shifts. 750+ steps!
I loved all the detail and a few new building methods I've never used before.

Yes, it definitely is ! :) Everytime I order LEGO I keep checking the tracking status of the box very often. So it's not a big surprise at the end when it finally arrives because I know where the box is. But this time with LEGO Disney Castle it was different ! :) So fast shipping that I didn't even notice the tracking number email. Big surprise ! :)
Of course I will do the review as soon as I finish the build. I am looking forward to it. :) Hope I will like the build and will maybe tempt you to buy it. Challenge accepted ! :)

My boyfriend was on the other side of our country the day when the box arrived. So I had to take the box home myself, and I remember quite well that it was pretty heavy ! :) Not that big but heavy.
750+ steps is a lot but I am sure that it will be a big fun. Great that you discovered a few new building methods. It's always good to learn something new.
