The “MAR10 Day” festivities are heating up as Nintendo and LEGO have just announced they’ll be showing off something new and exciting on the day.
A tweet from LEGO tells fans that “final preparations are underway for our LEGO Mario YouTube Premiere” and features images of host Jack Gardner holding the fantastic LEGO Bowser – potentially implying that what we’ll see are more traditional Mario-themed LEGO kits as opposed to the other Mario play sets aimed at a younger audience.

The Premiere will be available to watch on the official LEGO YouTube Channel at 5PM CET on March 10 which (rather unfortunately) equates to:
ALL THE AUSTRALIAN TIMES FOR THE LEGO MARIO PREMIERE – MARCH 11th
- AEDT (Melbourne/Sydney/Hobart/Canberra) – March 11 at 3.00 AM
- ACDST (Adelaide) – 2:30 AM
- AEST (Brisbane) – 2.00 AM
- ACST (Darwin) – 1:30 AM
- AWST (Perth) – 00:00 AM
- NZDT (Wellington) – 5:00 AM
LEGO’s The Mighty Bowser set launched last year and includes a whopping 2804 pieces, and uses new LEGO elements that have never been used before to create effects such as Bowser’s spikes, fireball launcher and a button to control Bowser’s head, neck, arms and finger movements. In short: It’s awesome.
In other MAR10 day premiere news, a special Mario-themed Nintendo Switch bundle was announced for global regions lucky enough to get it. We’re also being treated to a final trailer for the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie on Friday, March 10th at a very chill 9AM for those working on AEDT time.
The trailer will be made available to watch live on YouTube at this link.
