"License agreements
In 1999, we launched for the first time a number of themes based on license
agreements signed in 1998 with Walt Disney Company and Lucas Licensing Ltd.
These agreements relate to both the classic and the new StarWars space ships
and to Winnie the Pooh, now famous world-wide through the Disney animated
film based on A. A. Milne's books. The LEGO Company has enjoyed great
success with both ranges, and additional exciting and entertaining sets with
LEGO StarWars models and Disney figures will be launched in 2002."

I'm not sure if this is saying more WTP sets or more WTP figures or other
Disney themed sets.  I haven't found any other references in other press
releases including the ones regarding the 2002 line-up.  Has this idea been
canned or is something still happening?

There's the Fabuland'ish Mickey and Minnie with variations and a Pluto. They
are really fabulously made and I'm hoping they'll extend the line to other
characters like Donald, Daisy and Goofy. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a
Studio's xover minifig lineup where they had figs wearing Mickey hats like
they were mascots, not unprecedented with the Nesquick studio bunny.
