Lego says it has a ‘big reveal’ set for a Mario Day presentation
Lego is planning a “big reveal” related to Mario later this week.
According to Nintendo‘s list of ‘Mario Day’ events, due to take place on March 10 (MAR10), Lego will be hosting a special presentation on its YouTube channel.
Dubbed the Lego Super Mario YouTube Premiere, it’s claimed that the event will feature “exclusive content and a big reveal by your host, Jack Gardner”.
The presentation will start at 8am PT / 11am ET / 4pm GMT on Friday, March 10.
It’s not clear whether the reveal will relate to more Lego Super Mario playsets, a more ‘premium’ Lego Nintendo product or something else like a discount on existing Mario sets.
Lego also tweeted a teaser for the event, showing behind-the-scenes photos of host Jack Gardner filming the presentation.
“Final preparations are underway for our Lego Super Mario YouTube Premiere,” the tweet reads. “Tune in on March 10 for big updates, and even bigger reveals.”
