A new Lego Disney Castle based on the Walt Disney World icon has been officially unveiled, and it's due to arrive this July.

Weighing in at more than 4,000 pieces and packing even more minifigures, this updated version of the Lego Disney Castle will launch on July 4.

In terms of cost, this one lives in the same ballpark as the previous Lego Disney Castle; it'll set you back $399.99 via the Lego store or £344.99 in the UK.

Turns out it is - and it's not far away. You can find out more below, and we'll keep you updated as to whether it ranks on our list of the best Lego sets when and if we're able to go hands-on with the kit.

Most notably, the turret color-scheme has been changed from white to pastel pink with gold accents. That's because the Walt Disney World Cinderella castle it's based on did the same thing a couple of years ago in honor of the park's 50th anniversary, swapping out those paler tones for a warmer pink.

This new edition also trades in minifigures of Mickey and co for some of the park's most
