Light Kit for Ariel's Treasure Chest #43229

Something is glowing in the chest

Ariel's collection of human objects is one of the busiest ideas in The Little Mermaid: the whole plot turns on a mermaid's curiosity about forks, pipes and candlesticks, and the film treats that curiosity as something to be proud of rather than feared. LEGO turned the collection into a single object instead of a scene. Lego Ariel's Treasure Chest 43229 is a treasure chest, closed on the outside and filled with the odds and ends she has been gathering, made for a shelf rather than for play.

A hinged lid, gold trim, shells and sand, with the contents arranged inside so they only come into view when the chest is raised. The outside of Disney Ariel's Treasure Chest 43229 is almost entirely sculpted curve, and nothing inside holds the lid open at an angle.

Small sets from the legos disney princess range want a light touch, so this one is deliberately intimate. The main source sits under the lid, angled so the glow spills through the gap as though something inside is catching the ZENE Bricks LED light — which is the effect the whole build is designed around. The gold trim takes a warmer accent from the same circuit, and the sand and shells get only a very low wash, so the chest stays the brightest thing in the scene. The effect is a glowing chest rather than a lit model.

Light runs under the rim of the lid so it spills across the contents when the chest is open and stays hidden when it is shut, and the glow lands on the gold rather than on the plastic around it. For a disney building kit this compact, one source is enough, and the disney lego characters packed inside are what it is there for.

The highly commented Tiffany blue, together with our lighting, adds a more dazzling magical color. Any adult or child who loves Disney will be amazed.
