Our take on the LEGO Mini Disney Castle 40478

The LEGO Mini Disney Castle 40478 is a small display model of the Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World, built to mark the resort's 50th anniversary. It uses pearlized golden tower tops and opalescent blue rooftop cones to suggest the castle's paint scheme, and it includes a vintage-style Mickey Mouse minifigure. At roughly 567 pieces it is a shelf piece rather than a play set, and it sits between the big Disney Castle builds and the tiny polybag castles on detail and footprint. Owners rate it highly as a gift and desk display; the common complaints are the small scale and the sticker sheet.
