Lego’s next Mario set for adult collectors is a giant Piranha Plant
Lego has revealed its next Super Mario set for adult collectors, a large Piranha Plant.
The set was teased on the official Lego Twitter account, with the message: “Waking soon… discover the newest Lego Super Mario set emerging from our pipeline…”
The model shown in the video is clearly a Piranha Plant, and the video also features the music that plays in Super Mario 64 when you walk past a sleeping Piranha Plant.
However, the item can already be found on theofficial Lego store website, with a November 6 release date and a $59.99 / £57.99 price point.
“Recreate the distinctive features of a Piranha Plant and pose its head, mouth, stalk and leaves,” the item’s description reads.
“Displayed in the buildable pipe, it makes a fun centerpiece for your home or office.”
The set will consist of 540 pieces, making it the smallest of Lego’s Nintendo-themed adult sets to date, and will stand at 9 inches tall.
