Get Ready to Snap Up the LEGO® Super Mario Piranha Plant

Billund – September 21st, 2023: Today, the LEGO Group revealed the brick-built Piranha Plant, the latest addition to the expanding LEGO® Super Mario theme for Adults, in partnership with Nintendo. The new building set is a fun re-creation of the iconic plant from Super Mario video games.

Built from over 500 pieces, the LEGO® Super Mario Piranha Plant is a detailed and posable set. It allows LEGO and Super Mario fans alike to move the head, mouth, stalk and leaves to create new and exciting poses. In addition, the building experience of the set allows you to create from the bottom up, so the Piranha Plant emerges as if it’s growing out of the pipe.

Carl Merriam, Senior Designer, LEGO Super Mario, commented: “When designing the Piranha Plant, it felt important to capture its distinctive features and ensure that the set could be positioned in a way that reflects its iconic poses. I’m so proud of the finished result, from the mouth to the leaves and stalk, we’ve managed to perfectly portray the menacing essence of the Piranha Plant!“

A fun gift idea for Nintendo fans or as a treat for yourself, the LEGO® Super Mario Piranha Plant makes an impressive centerpiece for the home or office. The Adult line includes a series of Super Mario-themed building kits, such as The Mighty Bowser, each designed to evoke nostalgia from LEGO fans who remember Mario as an intrinsic part of their childhood.

The new LEGO® Super Mario Piranha Plant will be available from November 6, 2023, via LEGO stores, lego.com and from select leading retailers around the world. For more information, please visit www.LEGO.com/supermario

The set features two brick-built Airships similar, but smaller, to Bowser’s Airship from 2021. Two members of the Koopaling Klan make an appearance, Morton and Larry, unfortunately the builds aren’t exclusive to this set and have appeared in previous sets.

It consists of 1,062 pieces and will hit both shelves and online 1st August. Take a look below at the official images, don’t forget to let us know via the comments what you think.

Official details:

Take the LEGO® Super Mario action into the skies with Larry’s and Morton’s Airships Expansion Set (71427). It features brick-built versions of these 2 Koopalings’ airships. Place LEGO® Mario, LEGO® Luigi or LEGO® Peach (figures not included) in the cockpits and ‘fly’ the airships to activate sound effects and fight a virtual cannon battle. Morton’s airship can also be opened up to create a battle zone in a LEGO Super Mario level. Note: the 71360, 71387 or 71403 Starter Course is required for interactive play.

The three Starter Course sets were supposed to be around until July 2026, but if reports are true that date has been pushed up to July 2024. With the recent reveal of Donkey Kong set this is surprising, these are due to drop in August, meaning the sets wouldn’t be around for a whole year.

There isn’t any official word from LEGO themselves yet but could the lack of theme popularity be the issue, the constant sales on Amazon, or could we be getting something new? With Nintendo calling the shots and demanding the interactive figures we have now, could we finally be graced actual Minifigures or perhaps a theme reboot to cash in on the recent success of the Super Mario Bros. movie?

Let us know what you think this means via the comments below. We personally hope it’s the latter, but think this could be Game Over for Mario!

These new brick-built characters will be making their LEGO Super Mario Expansion Set debut sometime in the near future but thanks to the new LEGO teaser video we can see them in all their glory. Included in the lineup are; Cranky Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Funky Kong and of course Donkey Kong.

Knowing LEGO I highly doubt these will be available from the same set, making us fans purchase them all ensuring a full collection. Watch this space for more details soon.
