Introducing two of the latest additions to the range, the 71439 Adventures with Interactive LEGO® Mario and the 71437 Bowser Express Train, offer engaging and interactive experiences for young builders and Super Mario enthusiasts alike.
1. 71439 Adventures with Interactive LEGO® Mario™ (Ages 6+) – $79.90
This 218-piece set is designed for younger players, offering a perfect balance between ease of construction and immersive gameplay. What sets it apart is its interactive Mario figure, which reacts digitally when players progress through the levels, collecting coins and defeating enemies along the way.
Key Features:
- Interactive Play: The set includes four iconic Super Mario characters: Mario, Bowser Jr., Yoshi, and a Goomba. Each figure can interact with the Mario character to trigger digital reactions, making the game feel alive in a way that’s reminiscent of the video game.
- Playful Challenges: The adventure starts with the Start Pipe, and players need to move Mario through various obstacles, defeat a Goomba and stomp on the “?” Block for coins, greet Yoshi, and ultimately shake Bowser Jr., who is balanced precariously on a platform before falling off his Junior Clown Car. The goal is to complete the course and reach the Goal Pole in the Junior Clown Car.
- Creative Customisation: Like other sets in the LEGO Super Mario range, this one can be expanded by combining it with other sets to build a larger Super Mario world. The set also integrates digital coin collection, which adds a game-like twist to the construction process.
Build Experience:
The set’s simplicity makes it an enjoyable experience for younger builders, and the use of the LEGO Super Mario app provides easy-to-follow instructions and creative inspiration. The app even allows children to share their builds with a safe online community. Parents and children alike will enjoy the mix of solo and social play opportunities.
This set is perfect for younger kids who love Mario and are just beginning to explore the world of LEGO. The interactivity ensures that it stays engaging long after the building process is complete, and it can be an ideal entry point into the wider LEGO Super Mario collection.

Key Features:
- Bowser-Themed Action: The set centers around the Bowser Express, a train inspired by one of Mario’s most iconic adversaries.
