Lego and Nintendo have given the "ready, set, go!" to a sextet of Super Mario: Mario Kart sets that will be available on Jan. 1, 2025. At the Gamescom exhibition in Germany, the companies showed off the first series of karts and characters inspired by the racing series including Yoshi, Toad, Donkey Kong, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi and Baby Peach.
Nintendo previously teased the Mario Kart sets back in March.
Three new Animal Crossing sets will also be available on New Year's Day: a Stargazing with Celeste set (78 pieces), Leif's Caravan & Garden Shop (263 pieces), and Able Sisters Clothing Shop (322 pieces).
The Mario Kart sets range in size from 133 pieces for Yoshi Bike to 823 pieces for the Baby Peach & Grand Prix Set, which includes a starting gate and obstacle course. They range in price from $14.99 to $79.99.
Simon Kent, design director for Lego Group, said in a release, "We can't wait for builders of all ages to put their pedal to the metal and bring Mario Kart races to brick-built reality at home with friends and family."
