The new sets include a Story Book set, a buildable Treasure Chest and the highly detailed Royal Clamshell.

The Treasure Chest is another set to feature DOTS-like elements including a bracelet. The most exciting of the newly revealed sets has to be the large-scale Royal Clamshell. This includes unique Disney minifigures and is packed with detail to capture the magic of Ariel’s underwater world.
