As we have known for a few months now, LEGO and Nintendo have put the package on the new LEGO Super Mario range with 16 sets in total and a series of 10 "surprise" bags containing different characters. Mario's starter pack and four costumes had already been unveiled and referenced on the official online store and today it is the turn of the various extensions that will be available from next August to be announced.

Each of these expansions will bring their own set of additional features and bonuses for fans to level up and enjoy all that this interactive ecosystem has to offer. You will have to spend the modest sum of 539.85 € to acquire all the planned packs, and that's not counting the 10 bags of characters that will be sold for 3.99 € each.

These expansion packs will join the main set and the four costumes already online on the official store from next August:

We will talk again during the day about what this range really has in the belly beyond the association between two emblematic brands around a universe that fascinates many fans: I had the opportunity to test the starter pack and some of the expansions unveiled today and I'll share what I take away from them after long hours of touring the concept.
