LEGO Super Mario The Mighty Bowser Coming!

by Thita (admin) on July 14, 2022

An interesting set that was recently added to the Online LEGO Shop is the #71411 LEGO Super Mario The Mighty Bowser. The set won’t be available until October, but we already have all the specs and designer-video for the set, so I thought to share them with you here.

First of all, here is the official description of the set: Appreciate the king of the Koopas when you build, display, and play with the #71441 LEGO Super Mario The Mighty Bowser. This buildable figure uses new-for-October-2022 LEGO elements to recreate the look of Bowser’s spikes and has many features, including a fireball launcher and a button to control Bowser’s head and neck movements. His arms and fingers move too!

Display The Mighty Bowser on the brick-built battle platform, which has two towers for him to knock over, a hidden POW Block, and an Action Tag. Combine The Mighty Bowser and the platform with a LEGO Super Mario Starter Course (#71360, #71387, or #71403 – sold separately) for battles with LEGO Mario, LEGO Luigi, or LEGO Peach. A great gift for any Super Mario fan and fun for all the family, this set includes step-by-step instructions to guide the complex build.

The set comes with remarkable play-features that really make this model stand out. You can control Bowser’s head and neck with a button under the shell, open and close the mouth, pose the arms, hands, legs, and tail and activate the fireball launcher. Watch the video below, where set designer Carl Merriam and interactive play designer Didier Agani demonstrate the features of the set.

The overall size of the model is over 12.5 in. (32 cm) high, 16 in. (41 cm) wide, and 11 in. (28 cm) deep. The set comes with 2,807 pieces and retail prices are as follows: £229.99 / $269.99 / €269.99. For more information, and to add the set to your wanted list, visit the LEGO Super Mario section of the Online LEGO Shop.

The LEGO Super Mario collection features some remarkable sets like the #71374 LEGO Nintendo Entertainment System, the #71395 LEGO Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block, the starter courses, expansion sets, power-up packs, and character packs. The sets can be combined for larger layouts and are also fully customizable. It’s worth checking them out if you’re looking for interactive play.

LEGO Ideas Review Results Announcement

in Other News & Updates

Over the past months, the LEGO Ideas review board evaluated 36 impressive product ideas that reached 10,000 supporters between early September 2021 and early January 2022. And yesterday, LEGO Ideas Design Lead Jordan Scott and LEGO Ideas Engagement Manager Hasan Jensen revealed which of the reviewed projects will become the next official LEGO set. Below are the details.

The selected project is Hocus Pocus – The Sanderson Sisters’ Cottage by Belgian fan designer Amber Veyt (a.k.a. TheAmbrinator). Her original submission in 2020 was not approved, but she persevered and submitted an updated design. Amber’s deep passion for the much-loved Hocus Pocus movie shows in her design, which encapsulates all the little details and characters that really wowed the review board. The project hits a sweet spot for Halloween movies for families, with iconic characters and a location that the LEGO Ideas team really wanted to recreate using LEGO bricks. If you’d like to learn more about Amber then make sure to check out her 10K Club Interview.

The LEGO Ideas team is still working out the final product design, pricing, and availability for this set. They’ll share more closer to the launch date, and the set will also be listed at the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

The next batch of LEGO Ideas projects is already in review. 39 projects have earned their spot in the review by reaching 10,000 supporters between early January 2022 and early May 2022. The results of the review will be shared later in the fall.

As it stands, there are currently 5 fan creations that are in development and will launch in the future. Besides Hocus Pocus – The Sanderson Sisters’ Cottage by TheAmbrinator, this includes the A-Frame Cabin by Norton74, BTS “Dynamite” by JBBrickFanatic, The Office by Lego The Office, and the Motorized Lighthouse by Roses Must Build. Keep an eye out for future announcements about their release date.

And of course, for currently available LEGO Ideas sets, visit the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.
