Ooo, I definitely want that train, the other two, can’t say I’m particularly bothered
Was hoping for another 18+ set like ? Block, NES, Bowser or Piranha Plant tbh. Not a super fan of the Super Mario Range of Lego
They managed to make Chain Chomp round, but not King Boo...
Mario kart Lego 2025, I wonder new Mario kart game year.
Mario and Lego both are amazing but I'm not a fan of this collaboration unfortunately. Happy for anybody who's enjoying this though.
looking forward to seeing the unannounced 18+ set for this year, hoping its something in-line with the nes or question block
But does the Chain Chomp make the barking sound from Super Mario 64? Will buy 20 of them if so, and set them all off at once! 😆
@epicgamner
18+? Must be a recreation of the Peach shower scene in TTYD, right? 😆
These are some nice sets, as always I appreciate the variety of locations (among these especially the Bowser Express) and characters (happy to see in particular Roy so we have all Koopalings now if I recall correctly and even King Boo) in Lego Mario!
I do wonder if that Bowser train fits official Lego tracks. That would make it cool for a powered up mod.
@Dom_31 honestly the lego mario bigfig line has so much potential and its so tragic that they dont use it. I think thats what theyre planning with the mariokart sets in 2025 (to make a new gamemode) but id much prefer this: a mario rpg mode. Youd select that gamemode on whatever tablet youve bluetooth connected mario to, and now whenever you stomp on an enemy, a battle begins! You use the phone as your battle menu, and you do action commands USING mario! Hes got a gyroscope in him, why not use it? Enemies can drop coins, xp, items, etc. interacting with toads or yoshis could trigger conversation, with specific characters being shopkeeps. You could pair mario with luigi or peach or both if you wanted to battle with friends, etc. etc. The best part is that it would take literally ZERO workaround since all the pieces they need are already there (literally)! Everything is all in place, they just need to use what they already have produced and sold to make something new
@sanderev that would be really cool
@epicgamner Wow, that would be a kick ass LEGO idea. All the pieces are there, they just need to make the app for it.
Unfortunately, seeing how bad the app they currently have is ...
Ah well, one may dream
@JohnnyMind
Yeah, they really are covering a lot of bases, you're right. I am also glad about this. There's even a Lego Wiggler (which is cute beyond my comprehension)! 😆
@Ooyah I've never seen that set before, Wiggler is indeed so cute!
It would be nice to have sets with regular minifigures for those who want them etc., but personally I would've loved to have Lego Mario as a kid as it seems even more fun to play with thanks to its interactivity other than the abovementioned variety... and to be honest, I kind of want to play with it even now despite being a young adult!
@JohnnyMind
Well, I guess that I would be classed as middle aged, and I would like to play with them too! 😆 I'm not sure if my wife would be very impressed, though... she was somewhat bemused when my Snorlax Squishmallow arrived in the post! 🤭
I'm kinda excited for the train. New lego trains don't come along very often (even if there are eleventy different versions of the Hogwarts express).
The Train seems great
I like the look of the train and haunted house sets, but LEGO certainly likes tacking on their own special tax....
Boo looks really funny as a cube.
I don't recall the train stages in Mario 3D World looking quite like that. But perhaps it's in post game content.
Also when did Mario ever fight Roy in Peach's Castle? Nintendo mostly pretends the other Koopalings never happened.
@Yalloo dude ive been cooking up that one for years they could totally do it they could even launch a setline just for it that comes with exclusive bosses and shops and dungeons n' stuff
This is so cool! Still holding on for those leaked Zelda Lego sets to come out soon!
@epicgamner that would really be something. Have you tried submitting this to Lego Ideas, it would get attention for sure.
That Bowser Express Train makes me want a LEGO Zelda Spirit Tracks set!! Plus a LEGO Wind Waker ship.
@epicgamner This is genius! I second the notion to sharing it on LEGO Ideas!
@Ulysses @Yalloo I could definitely give it a try, but I’m not sure if that’s the kind of content lego ideas is looking for. But now that you’ve put the thought in my head, I think I will give it a go. I’ll put a link somewhere if it actually goes anywhere!
It's a bummer King Boo is not the version from Luigi's Mansion.
@epicgamner I think Lego Ideas is more about the build itself, but I'm sure something new getting attention could also be considered.
You need a couple of builds in anyways so make them fancy, shops, places, enemies. And describe how each of the interactions work, what sound/music bit they make, how they impact the inventory, etc ...
That in itself is a super cool project!
@ShinEric I personally prefer the Super Mario version over the Luigi's Mansion version. (King Boo's Haunted Hideaway is my favorite Mario Party level) But I am very surprised to see Luigi's Mansion slighted here. Could of been tied to Luigi's Mansion 2 HD.
@ShinEric @TheMegaMarshtomp That version of King Boo is already included in the Luigi's Mansion set (https://www.lego.com/themes/super-mario/luigis-mansion), not to mention that this is your typical Mario ghost level so it makes sense - although to be completely fair, we already had this version of King Boo as well (https://www.lego.com/product/king-boo-and-the-haunted-yard-expansion-set-71377) so a Big Boo would've made even more sense.
"a great gift for girls, boys and gamers"
Maybe the actual ones with Mario will come down in price. Always a sale on any of them that don't include the plumber in red, himself.
