Bowser, But More Productive
This Lego set is designed for kids of nine and up, and is very much meant to be played with. That’s right, there’s no display model here, just pure good old-fashioned fun for the whole family, as long as they’re at least nine years old. It has a fair few pieces, coming in at 1,392, which means putting it all together will take a few hours, and that’s all part of the joy, especially if you’re getting some quality time with your kid while doing so. Once it’s all as it should be, you’ve got a Bower train with six characters, including a couple of hat-wearing Goombas, and plenty of little interactions to have fun with too.
You get to play with the rotating platform to show off your favorite figures, it has a cannon wagon spring-loaded shooter for some classic Bowser shenanigans, and it even has a handcar for those not afraid of a bit of hard work. You can even combine it with other Lego train bits to make it longer and more chaotic, and who doesn’t love doing all of that?
