Lego’s Super Mario World™: Mario & Yoshi 71438 set is not only a tribute to the classic video game Super Mario World, but also an ideal choice for game fans and collectors.
This set recreates the iconic characters and scenes from Nintendo’s classic game Super Mario World released in 1990, combined with the unique design of LEGO bricks to create an exciting interactive experience.
Here are five important things you need to know about this set:
1. Remake based on a classic game
Super Mario World is a Super Nintendo (SNES) game released in 1990 that was a huge success. The story of the game revolves around Mario’s duel with his nemesis Bowser. Yoshi, the character who made his debut in the game, quickly became a favorite of players and has since become a regular character in the Super Mario series. LEGO 71438 perfectly reproduces the elements of this classic game, bringing the classic scenes in the game into reality.
2. The latest LEGO Super Mario series product
This set was designed by Carl Merriam, a senior designer of Super Mario. He explained: "In this model, we wanted to capture the original sprite animations in Super Mario World. This meant recreating the pixel art in LEGO bricks, and then adding a mechanism that allows Yoshi to run with the caped Mario on his back. If this is not fun enough, we also added a dial so that Yoshi's tongue can be extended in and out - just like in the game!"
3. Three-dimensional building of famous characters Mario and Yoshi
The set consists of 1215 LEGO bricks, and the finished model is 40 cm (15.5 inches) high, 26 cm (10 inches) wide, and 11 cm (4 inches) deep. By turning the handle, Yoshi can run with Mario on his back, which is very similar to the classic action in the game. Rotating the dial can also make Yoshi's tongue extend and retract, and these interactive designs provide players with more dynamic fun.
4. Unparalleled interactive experience
The set comes with action tags that can be digitally interacted with other LEGO Interactive figures (sold separately). These optional figures include:
71439 Super Mario Adventure with Interactive LEGO Mario
71440 Super Mario Adventure with Interactive LEGO Luigi
71441 Super Mario Adventure with Interactive LEGO Peach
These characters can show different reactions through interactive functions, providing players with a deeper experience.
5. An ideal gift for game lovers
This set is not only suitable for game fans, but also as a collection display. Its exquisite design and interactive functions make it an ideal gift, especially for friends who love Super Mario and regard it as part of their childhood memories. In addition, this model belongs to the LEGO "Adult Welcome" series, and other classic products in this series include "Mighty Bowser" and "Piranha Plant".
With this Super Mario World™: Mario & Yoshi 71438 set, players can relive the memories of classic games and experience the interactive fun of the game through the ingenious design of LEGO bricks.
6. BrcikBling specially designed lighting for it
Mario's character modeling uses red, warm white and blue lights, and Yoshi uses vibrant green lights to reproduce the pixelated appearance of Mario and Yoshi. When you turn the handle to let Yoshi run with Mario on his back, the lights complement the movements, making the whole scene uniquely dynamic and interesting; rotating the turntable can make Yoshi's tongue extend or retract, and the red lights further enhance the fun and arouse your desire to explore the world of adventure.
