Cartamundi has announced the launch of a new range of card games inspired by classic early Disney.

The first three releases will star Mickey Mouse as he appeared in his earliest years. The packs are Disney Mickey Mouse Retro Edition Happy Families, Disney Mickey Mouse Retro Edition Game Box and Mickey Mouse Retro Edition Game Box Compendium (Deluxe version). All three games will be available in autumn/winter 2015.

All the games and packaging will include imagery from the very earliest days of Mickey and friends such as Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck, all housed in a box with a pre-faded retro look illustrated with facsimiles of the original Mickey from 1928.

Trudi Bishop, head of marketing and licensing, Cartamundi, commented: “From the moment he appeared on movie screens and in books nearly 90 years ago, Mickey Mouse has been one of the world’s greatest cartoon characters. These specially designed games and game boxes evoke both nostalgia and fun through everyone’s favourite cartoon mouse in games that children and families everywhere will love.”
