LEGO and Nintendo Expand Super Mario Collaboration with Luigi & Mach 8 Set
The enduring partnership between LEGO and Nintendo continues to delight fans, as the companies officially revealed their latest addition to the Super Mario LEGO lineup: the Luigi & Mach 8 set.
Building on the success of last year’s popular LEGO Mario Kart set, this new offering gives Nintendo enthusiasts and collectors another opportunity to bring their favorite Mushroom Kingdom adventures to life, brick by brick. Officially unveiled today, the LEGO Super Mario Luigi & Mach 8 set features an impressive 2,234 pieces.
This set spotlights Luigi, Mario's ever-popular brother, perched behind the wheel of the iconic Mach 8 kart, offering a fresh way to expand any LEGO Super Mario collection.
While Luigi has appeared in Super Mario LEGO products before, this set presents him in striking detail, highlighting both his signature green overalls and playful demeanor.
Enthusiasts may note that, compared to the previous Mario Kart set, the Luigi & Mach 8 bundle features an additional 262 bricks, resulting in a slightly larger build and heightened display value. The Luigi & Mach 8 LEGO set is scheduled for launch on April 1, 2024, with a suggested retail price of $179.99.
The extra height and additional pieces translate into a $10 price increase over the Mario Kart set, making this a standout piece for collectors and Super Mario fans alike.
LEGO has confirmed that pre-orders are now open through the official LEGO Store website, giving fans the chance to secure their set ahead of launch. Since their collaboration began, LEGO and Nintendo have introduced several sets celebrating the rich legacy of the Super Mario franchise, each meticulously crafted to capture the spirit of Nintendo’s beloved characters and worlds.
The March 2023 release of the LEGO Mario Kart set was met with strong demand, praised for its innovative brick-built design and interactive play features tailored for both long-time Nintendo fans and LEGO enthusiasts. The latest Luigi & Mach 8 set continues this tradition of excellence.
According to a LEGO spokesperson, the new release "offers fans another way to experience Super Mario's adventurous world by combining creative building with authentic Nintendo storytelling." This synergy has proven to be a winning formula, driving growth for both brands in the gaming and collectibles markets. With pre-orders available now and its official release on the horizon, the LEGO Super Mario Luigi & Mach 8 set is poised to become a sought-after addition to the expanding universe of Nintendo-themed collectibles.
