Woolworths Group has partnered once again with The Walt Disney Company to launch Disney Discs, a new collectible series designed to mark the 70th anniversary of Disneyland Resort in California.

Launching on July 16 and running until August 26, the campaign will span Woolworths Supermarkets, BIG W, Metro and MILKRUN, offering one Disney Discs pack for every $30 spent in-store or online. Each pack includes a collectible disc and a matching card, featuring characters and scenes from Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars.

In a first for the supermarket’s collectible programs, the accompanying $12 collectors album includes a foldable game board and 3D buildable replicas of Disneyland attractions such as Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Avengers Campus, aiming to bring an interactive element into the home.

“We know our customers love Disney collectibles and we’re pleased to be bringing a bit of extra magic to their shop,” said Michael Laxton, Chief Marketing Officer, Woolworths Group. “The board game in the collector’s album will give families even more ways to connect and play together.”
