What is WDCC?

THE WALT DISNEY CLASSICS COLLECTION is the only collection of fine animation sculptures created using the time-honored principles of Disney film animation. As a result, each sculpture captures all the emotion and magic of the unforgettable characters and settings created by Disney. To earn their place in the Collection, sculptures are designed and reviewed by animators, sculptors and painters at the Disney Studios in Burbank, California. Countless materials, including character model sheets, storyboards, layout drawings, and original film cels are referenced during the creation of each sculpture.
