Lego’s Super Mario range has been one of the biggest surprises of the last few years. What initially looked like a gimmicky Lego theme has grown — like Mario after chomping a mushroom — into a hugely fun and innovative collection that captures all the retro magic of Nintendo games.

Now, Lego has reimagined its entire range with a batch of 2027 sets that include a new selection of minifigures. This is the first time that minifigures have featured in the Super Mario range — an exciting debut for collectors.

Fire Mario & Bowser’s Castle (72060)

Moving away from the interactive, app-based play of previous sets, these new builds focus on classic Lego construction and role-play fun. These sets, recently revealed at the gamescom trade show in Cologne, are based on characters and environments from the Super Mario and Mario Kart universes.

The new sets include Mario’s Pipe Jump (72052), which has the first-time-ever classic Super Mario minifigure and a Goomba. It has a built-in lever for catapulting the Goomba. You can also get a first-ever Yoshi minifigure with Yoshi at Mario’s House (72057).

Luigi arrives with added firepower in the Fire Luigi vs. Koopa Troopa Battle (72061) set, with a cannon for shooting Luigi into a Koopa Troopa. You can even take Mario surfing with Mario’s Beach Adventures (72055).

There’s Racing with Mario (72054), based on the much-loved Mario Kart. The set includes obstacles from the game — including a banana skin and shells — and the kart has a built-in launcher to fire those shells. 

There are other Mario Kart-themed sets, too: Luigi & Bowser Jr.’s Race (72056) — with minifigures of Luigi and Bowser Jr. in their karts — and Bowser’s Rumbling Race (72058), featuring Bowser and Toad minifigures.

But the big showpiece of this new selection is the 850-piece Fire Mario & Bowser’s Castle (72060), a fortress model that comes with Fire Mario, Bowser, and Peach, recreating Mario’s classic princess rescue from the OG Nintendo game.
