EDIT:  Updated information.  Per CM4Sci on the same post over on EuroBricks…

“Ok, I’ve got confirmation that it’s the Cinderella one! And apparently it’s huge. Panel pieces and all.”

“Disneyworld’s Cinderella Castle.”

Additionally, here is an incomplete list of Characters….

“- New Mickey
– New Minnie with red polka dot dress
– New Daisy with darker lavender outfit
– Donald Duck
– Tinkerbell ”

Most likely Cinderella!  Here is a concept

We have been hearing a bunch of Rumors abouta VW Bettle lately and these all appear to be true.  Now yesterday, CM4Sci over on Eurobricks added another D2C set.  The Lego 71040 Disney Cinderella Castle.

I did  a quick Mock up of my thoughts on all of the confirmed rumors for this year.  These are my ideas of what these sets will probabaly look like.

Over on Eurobricks, we see quite a few potential D2C sets for the 2016 year.

all

The following are pretty much confirmed from good rumors from reliable sources

71040 Disneyland Cinderlla’s Castle – I am expecting (guess) 1800-2500 pieces and some (probabaly 5-6)  of the following minifigures.  Goofy, Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Donald Duck, Tinker Bell and Cinderella.  We are also hearing standard minifigures with this set and not mini dolls like in the friends sets.  I am also expecting a US $199 – $299 price.  I think that they will want to keep this cheap enough to sell in the parks.

10253 Big Ben – Most likely about 3500 – 4000 pieces and I believe that is should scale well with the London Bridge.    Rumored price is supposed to be $349

10252 Volkswagen Beetle – probably 1200-1400 pieces and I think that it will scale more with the Ferrari and Mini and VW Van.  It should also be smoother like these and not like the prior VW Beetle.  I am thinking a surfboard or racing stripes as an accent.

75159 The Death Star – I think that this will be a re-do of the current set with a new set of minifigures and Disney Box Branding.
