LEGO is building up its Mario Kart series, with the launch of the new Luigi & Mach 8 set. The 2,234-piece model is designed for builders and collectors ages 18 and up and costs $249.99 in Canada. It's available for preorder now and will come in stores and online starting April 1.
This large-scale, buildable model comes with a Luigi figure that has a moving head and arms. The Mach 8 kart features a movable steering wheel that actually turns the front tires, while spinning the back wheels makes a "flame" in the exhaust pipe spin. It comes with a special base that lets you prop the kart up as if Luigi is drifting around the corner. However, you can also take it off the stand and roll the model across the floor, if you want.
