A new Super Mario Lego set is on the way, featuring one of Mario's most well-known enemies: the Piranha Plant. The 540-piece Piranha Plant Lego model features posable elements--like a mount that can open and close and a bendable vine and leaves--and sits in a green pipe just like in the games.

Rather than the Lego Super Mario play sets that include interactive gameplay elements and simpler pieces, the Lego Piranha Plant is a more complex set intended for display. However, at just $60, it's also much more affordable than other large-scale Super Mario Lego sets like the Mighty Bowser model or the Nintendo Entertainment System Kit featuring Super Mario Bros.
The Lego Piranha Plant will launch on November 6. Preorders have not yet been announced, but you can wishlist the set on Lego's online store to be alerted once it goes on sale.

Plenty of other Super Mario kits are available at Lego's online store, including hard-to-find sets like the Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block. A few of the playsets are discounted as well. Big Spike's Cloudtop Challenge Expansion Set is down to just $56 (normally $70), the Reznor Knockdown Expansion Set is just $49 (normally $70), and the Goomba's Shoe Expansion Set is $8 (normally $10). These expansion kits add additional interactivity and gameplay elements to Lego Super Mario Starter kits like the $60 Adventures with Mario Starter Course, which you can buy for only $48 at Amazon.
