LEGO Super Mario Prince Florian & Castle Bowser 72042

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loved building this! Plus we love super Mario. Simple easy directions. It was truly awesome watching him build this. What kid doesn't love Legos!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our family had the best time putting together the Lego Prince Florian and castle Bowser. It was very easy to assemble, plus all the piece came separated so each person could start on a different part to complete the build.

Well made!! Grandson loved building it!

As soon as this was released I was told 'this was so me' so I asked for it for an early birthday present. The price per piece count was good and it was a good build. The first part seems like you're building a cabbage! 🥬 It says on the lego.com description a kid can fly it round the room. That's not happening, I didn't build it at home and had to take it on a car journey home and pieces all fell off it just driving off a curb! The greens don't seem as vibrant in real life as the instructions, box or Lego site, I was disappointed with this. It was on my bucket list to complete all mario games ever and the only game I didn't finish was mario wonder, I got stuck on the level before this boss fight so didn't recognise this set and thats why, but building it in Lego form made up for that. Loved the characters that came with it. Prince Florian and bowser jr are wonderful. I know pink Yoshi is a different build but I wish we'd had a different colour Yoshi instead. Awesome build, awesome set 👏

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids—ages 9, 10, and 13—had an absolute blast building this set! Our whole family are big Nintendo and Mario fans, so this was a perfect fit. I love how interactive the set is, especially since we already have the Mario & Luigi starter courses to expand the experience. The castle tower lifts off the stand and even launches a fireball, which was a huge hit. LEGO’s creativity really shines in this Super Mario collaboration—it’s one of the best sets we've had!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is easy to assemble and is also very entertaining. I find its versatility very adequate since it adapts easily. I think the time it takes to complete depends on the person. In my case, the duration was minimal. It is safe for ages 8 to 9 years and older since it contains many very small pieces. The entertainment value is excellent, immersing you fully in it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a fun build! My 11yo built it completely by himself in under 24 hours. (Anything that keeps him busy that long is worth it!) It has so many cool moving parts as well as a fire blaster that shoots. He was so excited to show all of us when he was done. Works perfectly with our existing sets.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My boys, 6 & 8, are not only obsessed with Lego, but they love Mario as well. This was a win-win product for them! We have not put it together yet, but I am 110% sure they will love the process as well as the finished product. It will look great displayed with their other Lego collections.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this lego set! It goes well with my husband gaming room! Easy to assemble, very sturdy and beautiful colors! Instructions well explained

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Prince Florian & Castle Bowser set is without a doubt the coolest release of this LEGO Super Mario launch. With 1,251 pieces, it’s a build that balances complexity, creativity, and sheer fun in a way that both kids and adult collectors will appreciate. The build itself is majestic and dynamic—Castle Bowser towers impressively and can actually be lifted off its stand to transform into a flying fortress. The moving parts are clever and satisfying: raising the castle makes Bowser’s mouth shoot a fireball, while lowering it reveals secret passages and a hidden prison cell for Prince Florian. It’s one of those rare LEGO sets where the engineering feels just as magical as the final look. What really makes this set shine is the play factor. There are eight interactive tags that work seamlessly with LEGO Mario, Luigi, or Peach (sold separately), letting you recreate boss battles straight out of the games. Even without the digital characters, it’s packed with fun features that make it endlessly replayable. The minifigure lineup is fantastic: Prince Florian himself makes his LEGO debut, joined by a striking Wonder Bowser Jr., a bright Pink Yoshi, and a fiery musical Piranha Plant. These characters add personality and make the set feel like more than just a display piece. Visually, it’s a showstopper—colorful, detailed, and eye-catching on any shelf. But it isn’t just a model to look at; it’s an interactive adventure in brick form. Final Verdict: The Prince Florian & Castle Bowser set is the highlight of this launch wave—combining build quality, imaginative play, and collector-worthy detail. Whether you’re a Super Mario fan, a LEGO lover, or just want a set that delivers on every level, this is the one to grab.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this came with all the pieces labeled in the bag with the number that goes with the structure! It is super durable and it the cutest thing ever! I am super excited to add this to my collection on my wall of Knick knacks!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaged nicely. It was pretty easy to build with the step-by-step instructions. Had a blast building this. All the pieces are interactive and things on Bowser move. The top piece comes off as a weapon that shoots out a cool piece. Wish I could have added more photos. Absolutely recommended!! Awesome addition to the Super Mario collection. Also may have started a new addiction for me!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this and immediately pulled it out of the box to get started! We are having a blast putting it together. This is such a cool set from the Mario collection. The instructions are very easy to follow and it’s securing right away as we put it together. My son can’t wait to display it in his room when it’s finished! The set comes with a ton of pieces and is a rewarding challenge to put together.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LEGO Super Mario is a creative and interactive building set that combines classic LEGO play with digital gameplay. It features a smart Mario figure with sensors and a small screen, letting players collect coins and recreate iconic levels. The pieces are high-quality, safe for children over 6, and free from sharp edges or toxic materials. Assembly is simple with the guided app, and the set offers great versatility, allowing endless level designs. Built with durable materials, it ensures long-lasting fun for both kids and adults.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was THRILLED when I noticed there were Mario options for the Lego sets. My nephew could build his Lego’s all day long, and he doesn’t have this set. Surprisingly, I haven’t seen this set in stores. I can already see his face lighting up when I get this set to him today. His current Lego sets he owns are stimulating and allow him to build something he’s so proud of afterwards.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loved putting it together. It was very entertaining to help him put it together. It's very fun and easy to follow the instructions. The material is very resistant and each piece fits together to ensure its durability. My son loved it. He put it on his toy shelf.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was such a fun activity to do with my family! Even though it was a lot of pieces it was easy to Assemble.plus my husband keeping it so I know is going to last for the longest.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing Super Mario Lego my son went crazy now it's starting to build it and we love it the package came perfect son get so excited with the lego.....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the coolest lego sets I have seen. It comes with 4 figures to make including a pink yoshi which is super cute. It came with a detailed booklet to build it.. The pieces are in separate labeled bags it make following the booklet easier. It is time consuming and fun. Even my teenager is excited building. I love that it works with the mario interactive figures ( they are sold separately ).

Amazing Lego set. Thank you for getting this in stock on the release date.
