The next LEGO Disney castle has been unveiled as a massive Beauty and the Beast build, and as you’d expect, there’s plenty of history to learn.

The stunning and specific 43263 Beauty and the Beast Castle has been officially revealed. It targets older fans of the classic Disney movie with a nostalgic, detailed creation that just so happens to be rife with new characters.

Whether you know the Disney movie by heart or have no clue what we’re talking about, there’s still some history to be aware of before the LEGO Disney set launches next month. Our new video teaches you everything you need to know about the set and what inspired it.

Tune in now for a closer look at the 2,916-piece castle creation and its history, and check out our full YouTube channel for many more LEGO history lessons.

43263 Beauty and the Beast Castle will launch on April 1 for LEGO Insiders or April 4 for everyone at £239.99 in the UK, $279.99 in the US and €279.99 in Europe. It has five minifigures (including the first-ever Beast minifigure – not the X-Men member) and many other buildable characters paying tribute to an iconic animated movie and story.

LEGO has been a part of my life ever since I was young. It all started when my brother passed down 7657 AT-ST to me. It’s guided me through my early years, through school and eventually through my degree in journalism. I still have all my collection proudly on display, including my many NINJAGO sets, my favourite of all the LEGO Group’s themes. Outside of Brick Fanatics I am an avid gamer and enjoy a good game of Dungeons & Dragons.
