XM Studios News"XM celebrates Disney’s world of storytelling, imagination, and wonders in our latest Disney Premium Collectibles series statue, Fantasia! The Sorcerer's Apprentice is undoubtedly one of the most beloved segments from the iconic Disney film, Fantasia. Fans can relive the magic of this timeless tale with the stunning Fantasia-themed diorama that immortalized the different scenes from The Sorcerer's Apprentice in a single masterpiece. Beautifully sculpted and individually hand-painted, every inch of the scene is brought to life with vivid colors, intricate textures, and lifelike expressions. These iconic traits are encapsulated in this painstakingly handcrafted, individually hand-painted diorama in XM’s famous quality finish.
The story of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice unfolds, starting from the base of the diorama, where Mickey admires Yen Sid casting magic while he does the chores. Mickey, inspired by his master’s magic, puts on the sorcerer’s hat while Yen Sid is out of sight, and casts spells on the broom to carry buckets of water for him. The broom works hard to carry buckets of water while Mickey sleeps. In his dream, he transcends from reality to dream and rises to the top of a pinnacle. He then commands the stars and the water, as the waves crash against the cliff.
Collectors would be delighted to know that the Fantasia diorama includes two additional Mickey switchouts – one chrome Mickey, and one tri-colour chrome Mickey, to switch with the full-colour Mickey that is standing on top of the pinnacle. XM’s Fantasia Diorama is a new timeless piece that continues to tell the story of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice in years to come."
