Summary

  • Six new Lego Super Mario sets leaked, including Captain Toad and Bowser's Castle.
  • Three new Animal Crossing sets have leaked, featuring Blathers' Museum and Goldie's House.
  • Expect the official reveals soon from Lego.

Both the Super Mario and Animal Crossing Lego ranges have expanded exponentially over recent years. With Mario, what started as a selection of Super Mario Bros. level sections and minifigures quickly evolved into power-up packs, full consoles, and a giant 2,800-piece Bowser. While not quite as extravagant, the same can be said for the Animal Crossing range, which has also grown and evolved.

Now, ahead of the summer Lego releases, six new Super Mario sets have leaked, alongside three more from Animal Crossing.

It's Time To Spend More Money On Lego Super Mario Stuff

Originally revealed by German retailer Lucky Bricks are the six new Super Mario Lego sets that will be gracing shelves this summer, one of which comes from a surprising— and underrated —franchise, Captain Toad.

The six sets are as follows:

  • Prince Florian & Castle Bowser (72042) – 1,251 pieces
  • Interactive LEGO Mario & Standard Kart (76043) – 278 pieces
  • Bowser’s Castle (72039) – 1,068 pieces
  • Wario & King Boo (72038) – 512 pieces
  • Captain Toad’s Camp (72040) – 159 pieces
  • Party at Toad’s House (72041) – 276 pieces

It's the first time that two of these Mario titles (Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Captain Toad) have had their own sets, with three more coming from Mario Kart, and a more generic Toad set. Arguably, the two depicting Bowser's castle are the highlights from this round of leaks, but I definitely have a soft spot for Wario and King Boo, and Captain Toad's Camp.

Animal Crossing Lego Sets Also Leaked By German Retailer

Just as exciting for Nintendo aficionados are the three Animal Crossing sets leaked by the same German retailer.

These three sets include:

  • Blather’s Museum Collection (77056) – 543 pieces
  • Creative Houses: Season of Fun (77057) – 814 pieces
  • Goldie’s Cosy House (77058) – 149 pieces

The three sets come with a combined six new minifigures, including Lilly and Blathers (Blather's Museum Collection), Whitney, Stitches, and Fuschia (Creative Houses), and Goldie (Goldie's Cosy House).

Blather's Museum, in my humble opinion, is the most exciting here, as it comes complete with a small fishing area, an orange tree, and most impressively, a full dinosaur fossil on display.

While no official information has come from Lego about these sets, you can likely expect a full reveal soon.
