About this deal

The Mighty Bowser is aimed at builders aged 18 and up, but the set comes with detailed instructions that can help LEGO beginners put Bowser together without much trouble.

If you mean having a few choice lego sets you want for display- all thats changed is there are more and bigger options From incredible design, an interesting build, and a stunning final model, there's really no other set that hits every single criteria I have. I mean how could you say no to this cute face...? Given the steady pace of these things, I’m thinking something along the lines of the first UCS ISD, where the directive handed down from on high was simply, “Build something cool.” They may be allowed one premium set every so often, and it’s left entirely up to them to figure out what that will be, and how to tie it in to the game as a whole. If that’s true (and I have no proof that it is), the real question is what will they do next? There’s no clear pattern to these sets, other than their relation to the IP as a whole. All three are wildly different from each other. They aren’t designed to be part of the game, but still interact with the Mario character (or rather, he interacts with them). I would not expect to see any basic game location that could just as easily be produced as a set for the game. Consoles and character builds would be retreading ground. A mosaic is a possibility, but wouldn’t require much in the way of complex set design (and would probably fall under a different department anyways). Maybe a giant Mario Kart go-kart? Apparently Ash n Flash did manage to get his hands on the update to make Mario compatible with this. One super cool thing is that if you stand on the Start Pipe, and then beat Bowser, the "level" will end right away! For basically every other Course Maker element in LEGO Mario you can keep going until you reach the End Pole. We've gotten a few new ways of Starting levels over the years (30 Second Pipe, Start Canon, Luigi's Mansion Starting Pad, Coin Pipe) but getting a new way to finish a level is super cool! There really isn’t much else to say about the completed look, so simply enjoy this 360 GIF of him in all his mighty glory.Appreciate the king of the Koopas when you build, display and play with LEGO Super Mario The Mighty Bowser (71411) 3D collectible figure. Gift idea for fans – This 2,807-piece LEGO® building set makes a fun birthday present, holiday gift or special treat for Super Mario™ fans.

As you do the above-mentioned movements, things are happening in his torso. The only way to have this much freedom while still being strong is for some elements to displace others – meaning part of this mechanism has to be periodically exposed. Fortunately, the designers did a pretty good job of hiding it between the shell and the elbow. At the price, it’s the most expensive LEGO Super Mario set yet, and it really pushes the limits of what LEGO can charge for a set like this. There are buttons on the side of the body which serve to rotate the his head, while another lever opens his mouth. Open it just a little too far and Bowser starts breathing fire balls, or at least launches a dart which is designed to look like the afore mentioned fireball. I was also impressed by the expressions afforded by the moveable eyebrows. It's very interesting to me that this comment was made the same day as @Huw posted an article exploring 497 . Real Value [2]– A very pricey set – if LEGO had included some more bonuses, like an army of Koopas, or something else, it might’ve feel like better value

Build [5]– This build was so fun, and challenged me. I was enamoured with seeing how Bowser came together The response to the announcement of 71411 The Mighty Bowser was overwhelmingly positive and this substantial model does not disappoint! Bowser's numerous distinguishing features are faithfully portrayed and I am particularly pleased with his organic appearance, making excellent use of many curved slopes, shells and interesting angles to create suitable shapes. The brand-new LEGO® Super Mario™ The Mighty Bowser™ is for sale from October 1st, 2022 on www.LEGO.com and from select leading retailers around the world. The recommended retail price for The Mighty Bowser is 269.99 EUR/269.99 USD. I am happy to give this set 4 Arbitrary Praise Units out of 5 for these reasons. If you are an adult fan of LEGO looking for a giant Bowser to display it is perfect. If you are a Mech or Monster builder, this set has things to teach you. I built it up over four evenings, but I could have happily savoured it over longer, if not for other pressures.
