Summary

  • LEGO and Nintendo have revealed new sets inspired by Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and Super Mario Bros.
  • The sets will be released on August 1, 2025.

LEGO has unveiled fresh Nintendo-inspired sets, modeled after popular titles like Super Mario Bros., Animal Crossing, and Mario Kart. Previously, Nintendo and LEGO collaborated on a building set inspired by the original NES console, which was just the beginning of many beloved franchises being brought to life in brick form. The LEGO Super Mario line debuted in summer 2020, followed by the LEGO Animal Crossing sets that started appearing in stores since March 2024, and a Legend of Zelda set was introduced later the same year.

In 2025, the collaboration between LEGO and Nintendo will carry on, bringing joy to both collectors and gaming enthusiasts alike. Earlier this year, LEGO revealed a gigantic Mario Kart set featuring Mario in his iconic red go-kart, and it was confirmed that a LEGO Pokemon crossover is long overdue, scheduled for 2026.

It’s exciting news for fans! It appears that both LEGO and Nintendo have plans to unveil more products in 2025, according to Jay’s Brick Blog. They’re expected to release a complete lineup of LEGO Super Mario sets this summer, as confirmed by German retailer JB Spielwaren. Among these sets are at least three inspired by Mario Kart: “Bowser’s Castle,” “Wario & King Boo,” and an “Interactive LEGO Mario & Standard Kart” set. Additionally, “Prince Florian & Castle Bowser” will recreate the ominous floating fortress from Super Mario Bros. Wonder World as a LEGO model, and “Party at Toad’s House” and “Captain Toad’s Camp” will focus on the toadstool soldiers of the Mushroom Kingdom.
