ORIGINAL STORY: It’s been rumoured for a couple of weeks, but a local LEGO retailer has revealed it in full early. It’s been taken down now but it was captured by Aussie outlet Vooks.
The LEGO Mario Set will have 1,972 pieces and release on May 15th retailing for $249.99 AUD.
This set will feature Mario sitting in his signature Mario Kart and it also comes with a LEGO stand to display it on an angle.
We’re expecting this one to be officially revealed later tonight, but for now, you can check out a few images (courtesy of Vooks).
Here’s how the set is described in the official listing: “Gear up for a creative adventure with the Mario Kart™ – Mario & Standard Kart (72037) build-and-display model for men, women and any fans. A delightful collectible gamer gift for adults, this Nintendo® construction set features a buildable Mario figure with a posable head and arms, sitting behind the wheel of the most iconic Mario Kart vehicle of all. Place the Standard Kart on the special stand, which allows you to show it at a dynamic angle as if it is being driven at speed or drifting in a Mario Kart race. This authentically detailed buildable model makes eye-catching LEGO® Super Mario™ decor in any fan’s bedroom, living room, game room or office.”
