The LEGO Super Mario Piranha Plant is a 540-piece display set for adult builders, inspired by the recognizable enemy from the Super Mario games. The finished model stands over 9 inches tall in a buildable green warp pipe that holds the plant upright. A poseable head, mouth, stalk, and leaves let you set the plant in different positions. Two yellow LEGO coins also come in the set, storable inside the pipe with a release button mechanism.

Classic Super Mario Display Piece
The Piranha Plant has been a Super Mario staple since the original 1985 arcade release, popping out of green warp pipes to snap at Mario and Luigi as you navigate the levels. This LEGO set captures the specific character as a static display piece, with the pipe and plant built entirely from bricks. Eight printed dome bricks form the spotted head, so you don’t need to apply any stickers during the build.
Printed dome bricks form the spotted head, so the finished Piranha Plant looks curved and cartoonish rather than blocky. Studs barely show on the pipe underneath, either, which is unusual for a LEGO model of this size. Ball joints along the stalk and in the neck let the head tilt forward, backward, and side to side after the build is complete.
