Lego has joined the battle! For MAR10 (Mario Day), you can score some hard-to-find Super Mario Lego sets, and even pre-order some brand new ones. Lego has taken your favorite fast-paced platformer and turned it into a slow, satisfying puzzle that you piece together to unwind at night. What can’t that backflipping Italian-ish plumber do?
These hard-to-find sets are delightful for the whole family, but honestly, a particular few are geared toward the nostalgic grown-up gamer. The Super Mario World: Mario and Yoshi set has 1215 pieces—including a crank to make Mario and Yoshi “run”. And this iconic, 1972 piece Mario Kart set lets you show off your Mario Kart skills in a more subtle way (i.e. not damaging friendships when the karting gets a little too serious). This sale only runs today and tomorrow—because “Mar12" is not a canonical character. Happy Lego building!
