Mickey Mouse’s silhouette becomes a canvas for other Disney characters in Disney Shorts, a collectible series that gives a familiar shape different personalities. Mintbrain’s first collection will have its official launch premiere in Beverly Hills on November 20, 2026, giving fans a chance to explore the designs and meet two people behind the project.
The Toy Book described the line as vinyl figures whose designs evoke classic 2D animation. Its examples include Miguel from Coco, the Cheshire Cat and Jack Skellington: characters from different Disney stories, reinterpreted through Mickey’s recognizable outline.
The Artist Behind the Shape
The Beverly Hills event will include Mintbrain founder Carlos Klarmann and Disney artist HERRERABOX, whose name is Francisco Herrera. The Toy Book identifies Herrera as the designer of the full collection and traces his connection to Disney back to a Disneyland visit at age six. He describes Shorts as a meeting point for his artistic interests.
Shorts brings all my passions together into a single product, using Mickey Mouse, the world’s most iconic figure, as a canvas for infinite artistic expression. Francisco Herrera, speaking to The Toy Book
Herrera also brings experience in three-dimensional work. His official website says he has developed and produced sculptures and prototypes since 2008, ranging from miniatures to life-size pieces.
The Beverly Hills premiere follows an earlier preview of the line. The Toy Book reported that FunMax previewed Shorts at San Diego Comic-Con in July. November’s event gives fans another opportunity to see the collection in person, this time with its designer among the announced guests.
