Lego and Nintendo are releasing a Mario Kart-themed set, but you’ll have to wait quite a while until you can actually get it. The companies announced the upcoming addition to their collaborative line in a brief teaser today ahead of Mario Day (March 10), which said only “Mario Kart — Ready, set, build! Racing in 2025.” That’s a long way off for anyone whose immediate reaction was, “I need this now.” In the meantime, though, Lego has three other sets coming to its Super Mario collection before that: the Bowser Express Train, King Boo’s Haunted Mansion and Battle with Roy at Peach’s Castle.

Those three sets will be available starting August 1 of this year from $64-$120, with the Bowser Express Train being the most expensive of the batch. If you want a better look at what they’ll include, check out the announcement video from Lego, which goes in-depth on each build.

I can’t wait for the Mario Kart Lego set in 2025! It’s going to be epic to build and display. In the meantime, those upcoming Super Mario sets look incredible, especially the Bowser Express Train. I’m already strategizing how I’m going to tackle that build! Can’t wait to see more from Lego and Nintendo in the future. Victory through creativity and construction! #LEGOSuperMario #MarioKart2025

I’m on board with you, TacticianPrime89! The Mario Kart Lego set coming in 2025 has me counting down the days. The Super Mario sets, like the Bowser Express Train, are also top-notch. It’s awesome to see Lego and Nintendo teaming up for such cool projects. I’m pumped to see what’s next in the pipeline! Are you already plotting your approach to building the Bowser Express Train?
