While gift-wrapped toys are usually found tucked under a holiday tree, Disney created a festive 14-meter toy Christmas tree made from more than 2,000 plush toys. The gigantic Disney Junior Christmas Tree was installed at the St Pancras International station in London, featuring toys from Disney shows like Doc McStuffins, Sofia the First and Miles From Tomorrow. At the very top of the Disney Christmas tree sits a one-meter Mickey Mouse toy as a topper.
While seeing the tree on its own is impressive enough, to enhance the spectacle, like magic, Disney has it rain down artificial snowflakes every four minutes that dissolve once reaching the ground.
After the tree is taken apart in early January, the thousands of Disney plush toys will be donated to the Kids children's charity.
