Shortbus311 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Leaked images of the Mario D2C are out. It's a very disappointing set imo. It's supposed to be a Super Mario 64 set, with a giant ? block and little vignettes of the levels... only problem is, there were no ? blocks in the Mario 64 game I don't think. Lego should have just done a Princess Peach castle. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole design is a homage to Mario 64 being the first 3D Mario game, thus the 3D block that appears to hold many different functional vignettes.I know some have labeled this leak as princess peaches castle, but it’s possible that it is a separate set, as that’s just one of 4 vignettes.

I think the block is mostly novelty and looking closer at the design it may be set up as a mystery which mini build you get once you activate it.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI agree that the block is mostly novelty and they just went with the most famous of the blocks. But if they were going to do that then they should have just called it a Super Mario set instead of specifying Mario 64 and then having the largest part of the build be of something that wasn't even in that game. That's like them making a 1989 Batman movie set that contains a 300 piece 1989 Batmobile and a 1400 piece Tumbler...

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSorry, but there is just no arguing it now. Lego really messed this up, they even put "Super Mario 64 ? Block" on the front of the box, it is the set name...

marcandre Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I like it. Who cares if it's not in 64. The question block is iconic, everyone recognizes it. The exclamation box not so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can press the D-pad to the right to walk and press A to jump but somehow cannot figure out how to run and jump. Kind of makes it hard to beat almost any level other than 1-1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
