Standing 36 cm and 35 cm tall respectively, Mickey and Minnie join a growing collection of advanced level Disney sets. Interestingly, this new kit also features a LEGO® blast from the past. Apparently, the nose on each character is a classic space helmet in black. This part has not been in production since 1987. Additionally, a new color in the LEGO® pallet gets its debut: “Brown with Opalesence”. What are your thoughts on the Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse Buildable Characters?
