There’s a new licensee in town, and they’re bringing a slew of classic games to the GFFA and beyond. The Noble Collection will be releasing chess sets, checkers, mahjong, balance games, dice towers, dice cups and additional game essentials inspired by Disney Animation, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars. They already have an enviable roster of IP’s available for collectors and gamers to choose from (Wizarding World, Wicked, Minecraft, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, Star Trek, Jurassic Park, DC, Jumanji, Game of Thrones, The Da Vinci Code, Minions, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Nickelodeon, and Universal Monsters), and they skew towards high quality, so these will likely be aimed at the higher end of the price range. Look for them in European and North American stores later in 2026.

The Noble Collection has announced a new licensing collaboration with Disney Consumer Products to introduce a range of chess sets, games and game accessories inspired by the classic Disney Animation, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars franchises.

Designed to transform game night into a shared, story-driven experience, the new collection will bring beloved characters and legendary worlds to the table through classic and contemporary games and accessories.

Rooted in the company’s long-standing expertise as a premier creator of licensed chess sets and display-worthy collectibles, the new games portfolio blends thoughtful design, storytelling and play. Launching Holiday 2026 in North America and Europe, the assortment will include chess sets, checkers, mahjong, balance games, dice towers, dice cups and additional game essentials, each crafted with The Noble Collection’s signature attention to detail and premium quality.

A deluxe, collector-focused Star Wars chess set is planned for 2027 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
