Description

LEGO has officially initiated pre-orders for its anticipated new set, the 'Mario & Yoshi', inspired by the cherished SNES classic, Super Mario World.

This release continues the successful partnership between Nintendo and LEGO, offering fans an authentic brick-built celebration of one of gaming’s most iconic duos.

The 'Mario & Yoshi' LEGO set, now available for pre-order through the official LEGO website, is priced at $129.99 USD / £114.99 GBP / S$209.90 SGD.

It boasts 1,214 pieces and is scheduled to begin shipping to customers on October 1, 2024.

Singapore-based retailer The Brick Shop is among the first to list the set, alongside other global LEGO Certified Stores.

The set features an interactive mechanism at its rear that animates both Mario and Yoshi, enabling movement including an articulated mouth for Yoshi — a detail that echoes the playful charm of its videogame origins. As of July 25, 2024, the product is also on display at the official LEGO booth during San Diego Comic Con 2024, drawing significant attention from convention attendees and the media alike.

Although LEGO has yet to release an official press announcement, verified listings and hands-on demonstrations confirm the set’s arrival. A spokesperson from The Brick Shop described the new model as "an intricate display piece that pays homage to Super Mario World’s vibrant world and dynamic characters." This sentiment reflects growing demand for video game-related collectors' items, particularly those tied to classic Nintendo franchises.

The continuing LEGO Super Mario partnership has seen notable success since its debut in 2020, with sets consistently ranking among top-sellers in both the LEGO Store and Nintendo’s eShop. This announcement comes amid broader excitement for Nintendo fans, as new LEGO collaborations—such as the forthcoming Legend of Zelda 'Deku Tree' set—are poised to expand the portfolio even further.

Miyamoto, Nintendo’s legendary producer, recently commended the collaborative process with LEGO, emphasizing how these sets encourage both creativity and appreciation for classic game design. Collectors and fans can secure their copy of the 'Mario & Yoshi' LEGO set now via the LEGO website or participating certified stores ahead of its October 2024 launch.

As the Nintendo and LEGO partnership continues to evolve, this set marks another milestone in bringing the magic of classic video games to life through innovative, buildable formats.
