Over the last couple of years, it has become increasingly common for a kid scaled version of a build to be matched up with an ICONS 18+. build, and this time it’s Mario’s turn. To celebrate March 10 (Mar10 day!), the LEGO Group and Nintendo have revealed a new large scale Mario build, complete with a Standard Kart from Mario Kart. The set has 1972 pieces and will be priced at $AUD250/ €169.99 / £139.99 / $USD169.99. It is due for release on May 15th 2025. The model measures 32cm long, 19cm wide and 22 cm high
It’s still March10 (Mar10 Day) in some parts of the world…
The LEGO Group is excited to unveil the latest addition to the LEGO® Super Mario™ collection: the Mario Kart – Mario & Standard Kart set. This detailed, build-and-display model is a perfect gift for fans of the iconic Mario Kart series from Nintendo, offering a captivating building experience and a dynamic way to showcase the brick-built Mario in his Standard Kart.
This 1,972-piece set allows builders to recreate Mario in his Standard Kart and features a posable figure with a movable head and arms. The included stand enables fans to display the kart at dynamic angles, as if Mario is speeding through a high-stakes race or drifting in true Mario Kart fashion.
The LEGO Super Mario: Mario Kart set provides a fun and rewarding building experience, designed for both seasoned LEGO enthusiasts and newcomers to the brand. Step-by-step instructions are available both in the box and on the LEGO Builder app, which offers intuitive tools like 3D rotation and progress tracking for an interactive building experience.
Once complete, the Mario Kart set makes a bold statement in any fan’s home, whether as part of a game room, living room, or office decor. It’s more than just a model – it’s a celebration of the Mario Kart series.
The LEGO Super Mario: Mario Kart – Mario & Standard Kart set is available for pre-order now, and will be available for purchase from 15th May 2025 at www.LEGO.com/MarioKart and LEGO Stores, priced at €169.99 / £139.99 / $169.99.
There are a few really interesting details with this model: not the least of which is the fact that we seem to have new elements to make up Mario’s moustache and nose. The ears appear to be formed with printed 2×4 tiles (with half circle) (5520 ) and 1×2 half circle tile. The moustache appears to be a single plate, with an irregular border, while the nose appears to be a bulbous irregular shape – 2×2 at the base, and a little larger at the widest diameter. Like the ears, his eyes and eyebrows are also printed, as is the mouth.
I also love the detail around the bumper of the kart.
This will certainly be a great display piece for the games room. I wonder if there will be some sort of hidden tile to scan with your Electronic Mario figure?
