In case you tuned in to LEGO’s live stream of its upcoming LEGO Super Mario sets yesterday, then you’ll be glad to know that aside from a new expansion set, fans of Nintendo’s iconic gorilla will also have his very first official LEGO set in the form of an upcoming LEGO Super Mario Donkey Kong set!
LEGO Super Mario Donkey Kong Revealed!
The reveal was made by host Jack Gardner over at LEGO’s YouTube channel. You can catch a sneak peek of this exciting new set below.
Not so much was mentioned with this set, save from the title card that reads LEGO Super Mario Donkey Kong. But from the looks of it, it seems that this first brick rendition of DK will unlock new features from the Mario, Luigi, and Peach starter packs. It looks like this feature will be activated once these starter packs are mounted or joined together with LEGO Super Mario Donkey Kong. It’s quite unsure yet if LEGO’s Donkey Kong will be part of a larger expansion set, or will be a stand-alone one. We just have to wait and see in the coming months.
From the get-go, this build is not very much different in terms of height as compared to the LEGO Mario figure. The printed tile for his eyes is also spot-on, accurately catching the looks of Nintendo’s legendary gorilla. I would also like to commend the designers here for their decision to actually provide molded hands for DK.
Hopefully will get to see more details about this in the next few weeks. And with more LEGO Super Mario sets to be unveiled in the coming days, I’m still keeping my fingers crossed for actual Mario and Luigi minifigures. It’s certainly a possibility especially now that promotions for Illumination’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie are now in full swing. The film is scheduled for a theatrical release starting April 5, 2023.
Back in January, we shared a piece of news from the rumor mill that a new wave of LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 sets are to be expected during the first half of the year. Frankly, leaked images of this revived theme have proliferated online, it is only now that we get actual images of these sets coming from third-party retailers.
Dutch online store, Brickshop.nl, has recently published product listings for the highly anticipated LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 sets. Although social media has been abuzz with leaked images of the sets, it looks like we now have our first solid piece of info on what to expect from these sets.
It should be noted, however, that the LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 set images currently available may lack the clarity of official images that we are used to seeing. However, since 3rd-party retailers are listing them, it’s a matter of time before we see them up at LEGO.com.
While the product listings include several sets, there has been speculation surrounding the release date of the Temple of Doom set. It remains unclear whether the release date has been altered or if it will be available alongside other LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 sets in the coming months. What is clear though that based on these listings, these sets are expected to be released sometime in June.
There are also reports of avid fans managing to bag these LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 sets ahead of their release date. However, we still need to verify these claims. It is likely that official images and further details will be made available very soon so be sure to keep tabs with us here on our blog.
The following are also rough Google translations of the official product descriptions of these LEGO Indiana Jones 2023 sets. But even with such limitations, I guess it is clear enough to make sense of what we can expect from the set.
I’ll update this post once the official images start to roll in.

In case you missed it, LEGO released earlier this week its LEGO LOTR Rivendell designer video, giving us a glimpse of the design process behind this latest LEGO Icons set.
LEGO designers Chris Perron, Wes Talbott, and Ashwin Visser, delve into the intricacies of the design process and reveal the secrets behind the construction of this remarkable model. Watch this:
This designer video provides insight into the intricacies and challenges faced by the designers throughout the creative process. Their unparalleled attention to detail and clever design techniques enabled them to come up with an impressively accurate brick replica of the mythical and enchanting elven city of Rivendell. In fact, Chris and Wes mentioned that they even took it upon themselves to actually revisit the set in which the film was taped, in order to have a good grasp of how this iconic movie scene was made.
The 3-part build features some of the key moments in the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring that includes a view of the Council of the Ring, Frodo’s Bedroom, and Elrond’s Study for its first section. The second section of this set features an intricately beautiful Elven Tower with five elven minifigure statutes. While the third and last section highlights River Bridge and Gazebo that recreates the Fellowship’s departure from Rivendell.

As a Jurassic World subtheme, it is great that LEGO is giving us more of Jurassic Park this year.

We have the Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase (75932) from 2018; Jurassic Park: T. rex Rampage (75936) from 2019; and T. rex Breakout (76956) from last year, 2022.

March 10 is fast approaching, and if you’re an avid LEGO and Nintendo fan, then you’re most probably ready for MAR10 day fun this Friday. Because as it turns out, a LEGO Super Mario reveal may be on its way in conjunction with the most exciting Nintendo Day of the year.
Nintendo has just announced that there are going to be a ton of awesome activities and reveals happening during the much-anticipated MAR10 day. And according to Nintendo’s press release, LEGO is going to drop a special announcement on their YouTube channel on March 10 at 8 am PT. You may find a mention of this anticipated LEGO Super Mario reveal towards the end of Nintendo’s announcement.
For a full list of MAR10 Day activities, including special announcements from Nintendo’s partners at LEGO, First 4 Figures and PDP Promotions, please visit http://mario.nintendo.com.
I can’t help but speculate what LEGO has up its sleeves. Could it be LEGO sets for the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie? Or perhaps more expansion sets for the current LEGO Super Mario theme? Rumor has it that it is a larger LEGO Super Mario set that will be released later this year. As of now, the current title of being the largest LEGO Super Mario set is from last year’s The Mighty Bowser (71411).
Will the next LEGO Super Mario reveal be larger than the current holder which is the LEGO Super Mario The Mighty Bowser (71411)? We just have to wait and see.
Whatever it is, I’m sure it’s going to be epic. So be sure to mark your calendars for March 10, 8 am PT. And while you’re at it, why not bookmark our blog site as well? Stay tuned!

In case you missed it, the LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review Results were finally revealed last week, with the announcement of another Disney title getting the LEGO treatment.
The LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review Results Comes With 50+ Submissions
With a total of 51 submissions, it was another herculean task for the LEGO Ideas design team to select who would make it the cut to become an official LEGO Ideas set. And after several months, the team finally gave their verdict. LEGO Ideas Engagement Manager Hasan Jensen and LEGO Model Designer Ollie Gregory made the announcement. You can watch their video via the link above.
Red London Telephone Box
First, we have the iconic Red London Telephone Box by LEGO fan designer John Cramp (aka Bricked1980).
John, a native of Great Britain, profoundly appreciates the iconic Red London Telephone Box that has become a symbol of British culture and design. Paying close attention to every little detail in his design, John beautifully replicates this original telephone box in LEGO form.
From the ornate crown decorations to the phone books tucked away inside, this LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review results trailblazer includes all the memorable features that have made the Red London Telephone Box famous.
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Another upcoming LEGO Ideas set is a re-creation from the brilliant mind of Simon Scott (aka Tvrulesmylife). This Tim Burton-inspired set highlights the home of Jack Skellington in his titular role in The Nightmare Before Christmas.
It’s not the first time Simon has impressed the LEGO Ideas fan community with his amazing representation of the beloved stop-motion animated musical. His latest creation has again reached 10,000 supporters, and it’s easy to see why.
The LEGO Ideas review team was amazed by the level of detail that Simon put into this scene, which is instantly recognizable to fans of the movie. Jack Skellington and Sally, the main characters, are beautifully depicted, capturing the essence of their personalities and relationships. There’s no doubt that this brick creation deserves to be on the list of LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review results champions.
There’s no word yet on when these LEGO Ideas Second 2022 Review results will fully materialize as actual LEGO sets, and be finally available to the market. But given the myriad of approved LEGO Ideas projects still in development, we’ll most likely see them in 2024.
We’ll also keep our radars open for the results of the Third 2022 LEGO Ideas Review Stage with its 35 product ideas that gathered support between September 2022 and early January 2023. So be sure to stay tuned.
