LEGO Super Mario Will Have Piranha Plant & Bowsers Castle Sets Launch Date Revealed

A release date for the highly anticipated LEGO Super Mario playset has just been announced, along with a couple of expansion sets centered around some of the franchises’ most popular enemies and locations. The interactive board game-building toy hybrid raised many eyebrows when it was announced earlier this year, promising to combine the colorful fun of Nintendo’s signature mascot and the creativity and customization of LEGO.

Speculation ran wild when Nintendo posted an enticing tease of Mario in LEGO form on Twitter during March 10’s Mario Day celebrations, with fans wondering if there was either a new stream of Super Mario-themed LEGO sets or even a Traveler’s Tales-developed video game in the works. The answer would later be revealed to be a bit of both, as a few days later a video of the new LEGO Super Mario playset was unveiled, a sort of electronic game using LED technology within a large Mario figure to recreate sounds and gameplay mechanics from the classic Super Mario series.

According to a recent press release from both The LEGO Group and Nintendo, the LEGO Super Mario Starter Course set will reach store shelves on August 1st, 2020, although fans can pre-order it now from select retailers. In addition to the main set, two Expansion Sets labeled Piranha Plant Power Slide and Bowser’s Castle Boss Battle are also being released, which can combine with the Starter Course to add even more classic Super Mario characters and locations to the fun. The recommended retail price for the LEGO Super Mario Starter Course is 59.99 EUR/USD, while the Piranha Plant Power Slide and Bowser’s Castle Boss Battle Expansion Sets are suggested to be sold for 29.99 and 99.99 EUR/USD respectively.

In an interview last month, LEGO Creative Play Lab Design Manager Jonathan Bennink revealed that the LEGO Super Mario project took four years to realize, and expressed hope that sets of other Nintendo properties like Star Fox could be made in the future. Mario co-creator Takashi Tezuka was also brought on board to ensure the spirit of the series was maintained, as well keeping true to Nintendo’s ongoing message of innovation and interactivity – something that’s readily apparent in the very high-tech Mario figure itself.

Fans have been waiting anxiously for the new Lego Super Mario playset since its announcement last month, so having a release date and price for it is sure to be exciting regardless of how far off it may be. The additional Expansion Sets look to be fun as well, with such iconic characters and locales as the dreaded Piranha Plants and Bowser’s Castle being brought to life in LEGO form. Fans will be able to collect and combine them all when the LEGO Super Mario product line reaches store shelves on August 1.
