LEGO is celebrating Disney‘s 100th anniversary by honouring some classic villains.

This 1,540-piece set is currently available for pre-order for GBP124.99 and £129.99 and will begin shipping on Thursday, June 1.

Included are four mini-figures of classic Disney villains: Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty), the Evil Quin in disguise from Snow White, Gaston from Beauty and the Beast and the Genie version of Jafar from Aladdin.

An illustrated instructions booklet is included, and builders are also able to use the LEGO Builder app for any help they might need putting this set together. There’s a limit of two purchases per customer on this set, however, since it’s being created especially for Disney’s 100th anniversary. Other recent Disney LEGO sets on sale in this celebratory year include the theme park attraction-turned-movie The Haunted Mansion, Mickey and Minnie’s 3-in-1 Magic Castle and the best from both Marvel and Star Wars.
