New LEGO Ideas Steamboat Willie Set Is Sailing In This April

Today the LEGO Group has unveiled the first official images of the new LEGO Ideas Steamboat Willie set! This incredible new LEGO set is of course inspired by the most famous cartoon character, Mickey Mouse! Mickey Mouse made his screen debut in a 1928 black-and-white animated short film called ‘Steamboat Willie’, which was also the first Disney film to have synchronized sound, and now we can build that iconic moment to life with LEGO!

The LEGO Ideas Steamboat Willie set will be available April 1. The set features a LEGO brick built version of the S.S Willie. The set actually has steam pipes that move up and down and paddle wheels that rotate when the boat is pushed along.

The set also includes adorable new minifigures of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. These figures are inspired by their classic debut looks, and are monochrome to look like they came straight out of the black and white short film.

The set is based on a concept from the fan-fueled LEGO Ideas crowdsourcing platform, in which fans can submit ideas, and if they gather enough support, are considered for development as an official LEGO set. I am so very excited that this one was chosen!
