LEGO® Piranha Plant

02 November 2023

Moments ago, the LEGO Group unveiled the Piranha Plant built from LEGO® bricks, the latest addition to the expanding LEGO® Super Mario™ adult theme, in collaboration with Nintendo. The new building set is a fun re-creation of the iconic plant from the Super Mario™ video games.

Consisting of more than 500 pieces, the LEGO® Super Mario™ Piranha Plant is a detailed and adjustable set. You can move the stem and leaves to create new poses. Moreover, the construction experience of the set is such that you can create plant from below. So that the Piranha Plant emerges as if it is growing out of the pipe.

Carl Merriam, Senior Designer, LEGO® Super Mario, commented, "When designing the Piranha Plant, it was important to capture the distinctive features and ensure that the set could be positioned to reflect the iconic poses. I am so proud of the final result, from the mouth to the leaves and stem, we managed to perfectly portray the menacing essence of the Piranha Plant!"

A great gift idea for Nintendo fans or as a treat for yourself, the LEGO® Super Mario™ Piranha Plant is an impressive showpiece for the home or office. LEGO®'s Adult line includes a range of Super Mario-themed building kits, such as The Mighty Bowser, each designed to evoke nostalgia from LEGO fans who remember Mario as an essential part of their childhood.
