Lego Super Mario Display Models
The Lego Super Mario series is primarily geared toward kids, with interactive playsets allowing imaginative fans to build their own courses. But adults love Super Mario, too. Lego and Nintendo know this, which has led to a handful of building sets for adults. There are five of these in the Lego Super Mario line–not very many when you consider the first Super Mario Lego set debuted over four years ago. Unfortunately, these display models are rarely discounted. Fortunately, three of them are on sale now, with the Lego Piranha Plant being the most affordable at $48–its lowest price ever.
You can also save on the 2,807-piece Mighty Bowser set and the 2,646-piece replica of the Nintendo Entertainment System. The latter is only receiving a small discount, but like the other two, it sells for full price more often than not.
- Lego Super Mario: The Mighty Bowser (2,807 pieces) — $234 (
$270) - Piranha Plant (540 pieces) — $48 (
$60) | Also at Walmart - Nintendo Entertainment System (2,646 pieces) — $255 (
$270) | Also at Target
While it’s not on sale, you should also check out the new Mario & Yoshi pixel art display model, a new Lego display model for adults that launched on October 1.
