March 10, known as Mar10 Day, is a day of celebration for all fans of Nintendo® and its famous hero, Mario. This year, for the annual celebration, the LEGO® Group is unveiling an exceptional set that will delight video game enthusiasts and construction fans alike: the LEGO Super Mario™: Mario Kart™ - Mario and standard kart. This model, the result of a collaboration between two entertainment giants, allows fans to recreate one of the most iconic racing experiences in video games, with striking attention to detail.
With an impressive total of 1972 pieces, this set allows you to faithfully reproduce Mario's kart down to the smallest detail, with a careful representation of the character himself. With an articulated head and arms, Mario can strike a pose on his vehicle, recreating the intensity of the races in the video game. Thanks to an included display base, fans can present their model in various positions, whether at full speed or in full skid, paying homage to the energy and frenzy of the Mario Kart universe. Assembly instructions are available both in the box and on the LEGO® Builder app. The latter offers an interactive experience with advanced tools such as 3D rotation and progress tracking, allowing everyone to build at their own pace. Whether you are an experienced builder or a curious beginner, this experience is as fun as it is rewarding.
Mario Kart is a franchise that has left its mark on entire generations since its launch in 1992 on the Super Nintendo. Over the years, each new installment has brought its share of innovations, new tracks and new characters, while retaining the fun and accessibility that have made the series so successful. Iconic elements such as the red shells, turbo mushrooms and wild races have solidified its status as an essential reference in the world of video games. With the upcoming release of a new installment on the future Switch 2 console, the Mario Kart franchise continues to evolve. This future title promises to expand the experience with an increase in the number of simultaneous players (up to 24) and the introduction of new game mechanics, guaranteeing an even more immersive experience. This LEGO set is therefore a perfect continuation, offering fans an alternative way to celebrate their love for this dynamic and captivating universe.
Much more than a simple construction set, the LEGO Super Mario™: Mario Kart™ - Mario and standard kart is an essential collector's item. Its meticulous design and authentic details make it the perfect model for decorating a playroom, office or collector's display case. Whether you are a nostalgic fan from the early days or a player of the new generation, this model perfectly captures the spirit of the saga and is an original way to display your passion. The set is already available for pre-order and will go on sale from May 15, 2025, on www.LEGO.com/MarioKart and in LEGO Stores, at a price of €169.99. An ideal gift idea for fans of video games and LEGO construction sets!
