Lego’s awesome 540-piece Piranha Plant Building Set is on sale for just $36 ($60) at Amazon, Walmart, and Target. We expected the 40% discount on this LEGO Super Mario display model to disappear on Monday, but it’s actually available at more retailers than ever before. Best Buy featured the piranha plant in its weekend doorbuster sale, and Amazon quickly matched the deal. But while Best Buy actually raised the price to $60 when the sale ended, Amazon’s deal remained available and has since been joined by matching deals at Walmart and Target.
It is not clear when the rebates will expire at these retailers. Target mentions December 10 on its store page, but Target’s deadlines aren’t always reliable. You can get free shipping at all three retailers, and Piranha Plant will arrive in plenty of time to save before Christmas.
$36 (was $60)
Based on one of Mario’s most famous enemies, the 540-piece Piranha Plant LEGO building set has multiple usable elements, including an opening/closing mouth, a bending vine, and two leaves that can be angled in different directions. The set also comes with two (fake) coins that can be hidden inside the piranha plant’s mouth.
Just like in the video games, the Piranha Plant Lego set has a buildable green pipe as its base. It’s basically an artificial potted plant for Nintendo fans. The completed piranha plant measures 9 x 4.5 x 6.5 inches.
It’s worth noting that the piranha plant is one of three LEGO Mario display models that doesn’t interact with the Mario, Luigi, and Peach figures from the LEGO Super Mario and Mario Kart starter sets. The other two are Mario & Standard Kart and the Replica Game Boy, both of which launched this year.
The Piranha Plant is one of eight Lego Nintendo models geared toward adults. Amazon has a deal on one of the other display models in the lineup. Super Mario World: A pixel art model based on the classic Super Nintendo platformer, Mario and Yoshi is selling for $105 ($130) at Amazon and Target. The deal was also available at Walmart, but the set is currently sold out at Walmart’s online store.
The most recent LEGO Nintendo display model is the 421-piece LEGO Game Boy. extremely The popular replica of the original 1989 Game Boy DMG retails for $60. It comes with two bricked game packs. The Lego Game Boy may not be discounted yet, but it’s sure to be one of the most popular Lego gifts this holiday.
If you’re interested in collecting Nintendo display models for adults, the Mighty Bowser Lego set remakes should be on your radar. The 2,807-piece set is retiring soon, and it’s already sold out at most retailers. Amazon has discounted the powerful bowser back to its regular price of $270 during Cyber Week, but it’s once again sold out through December 10th. Two other major Lego Nintendo sets that have already been discontinued—the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Super Mario 64 Question Block—sell well above MSRP.
Here’s a list of the Lego Nintendo Display models released so far, including the ultra-popular Game Boy Replica, which joins the Piranha plant as only the second Lego Nintendo Display model priced under $100. Amazon has 421 pieces of the Lego Game Boy 60 in stock.
