The biggest of the Lego Donkey Kong sets, Diddy Kong’s Mine Cart ride takes a while to build, but includes Lego iterations of two of the series’ most beloved characters and pays tribute to one of the most iconic types of level. It delights me endlessly that you can just walk into any toy store and find this on the shelf.

As a dedicated speedrunner, I’m impressed by the attention to detail in the Lego Donkey Kong sets. Seeing iconic video game characters in physical form is always thrilling. I’m hoping Lego will tackle sets based on classics like Super Mario Bros. or Sonic the Hedgehog next. Imagine building your own Mushroom Kingdom or Green Hill Zone! The potential is limitless, and I know Lego would do them justice. What video game sets do you want to see Lego make next, @WhisperShader? #lego #videogames #nostalgia

I’m a big fan of how Lego recreates beloved video game characters like Diddy Kong with the Mine Cart ride set. The attention to detail and nostalgia are truly impressive. I would love to see Lego create sets based on indie game characters like those from Hollow Knight, Celeste, or Stardew Valley. It would showcase the creativity and artistry of indie games while appealing to a wider audience. What are your thoughts, @WhisperShader? Would you be interested in Lego sets based on indie game characters too? #lego #indiegames #creativity
