BowserBasher Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Could this be the start of, or actually a continuation of the Nintendo consoles in LEGO form? Next up SNES (though we better not get stuck with the ugly US version). Glad it’s October as I can start saving. Or better yet that’s birthday month. 1
Dcubed Posted January 9 Posted January 9 About time Nintendo announced their new handheld! Took ‘em long enough! 3
BowserBasher Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Just incase anyone feels like a Lego Mario set, Lego Store are holding a Mar10 Day event from 05/03 - 11/03 All Mario sets include x2 Insider points and a free small gift set as part of any order. I may pick up a few Mario Karts sets in this. 1 1

Hero-of-Time Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Quote 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. @BowserBasher Releases 15th May. 3
BowserBasher Posted March 10 Posted March 10 That looks pretty awesome. Can’t see any listing on Lego site yet. Just under 2000 pieces though so expecting it to be in the £150 - £200 range.

MindFreak Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I told my wife that I don't like the look of it and won't buy it. But that was probably a lie, if I find it at a nice price, I'll get it instantly. But please stop making new sets I need to buy, I haven't got room for them anymore. I wonder if it'll be able to actually drive if it comes off that stand. My sons would probably like it race it around. 1

My sons would probably like it race it around Looking at all the images it does look like the wheels turn. And one of the videos on the Lego page does show the steering wheel turning the wheels. So I’d say, yes, you can race it around.

I have to stop myself from buying a lot of LEGO I know I'd want, but I'm not sure I'm going to be able to stop myself here. Really depends on the quality of the headpieces. Arceus forbid that we end up with Squirtle with a standard printed minifig head, but long gone are those days (I hope). Giving me flashbacks to the Giratina & The Sky Warrior Mega Bloks set got back in, what, 2008 or 2009? Please don't just be Gen I, and please don't be stupidly expensive compared to other sets....

MindFreak Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Well, that's going to sell very well, I suppose. Wonder if they'll make it something like LEGO Mario or just standalone building sets. Either way, can't see this be anything else than a huge success.
Glen-i Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago They'd never make a Kecleon or a Toxtricity one, so my wallet is safe.
