Review: LEGO Super Mario 40414 Monty Mole & Super Mushroom Expansion Set (GWP)

It's time to do a little promotion for the LEGO Stores which are currently offering the small LEGO Super Mario promotional set until August 16. 40414 Monty Mole & Super Mushroom Expansion Set for any purchase of the starter pack 71360 Adventures with Mario sold for € 59.99.

This little set does not offer anything exceptional or exclusive, but when we see the prices charged for the other expansions of this board game, we are not going to complain about getting a free product that adds some fun possibilities to the game. starter pack.

This 163-piece box also offers a little more interactivity than some of the paid expansions currently sold with a progression that allows you to rock the Stone-Eye seen in the New Super Mario Bros. game. U Deluxe to a mobile platform that ejects the Topi Taupe from its burrow. As usual, you have to hit hard to achieve the desired effect and make the mole fly away.

As with the other extensions of the LEGO Super Mario concept, the instructions for this set are only available through the dedicated application and this level is only an extension delivered without the start and finish stickers necessary to fully enjoy the product .

This small box will eventually allow some of those who want to keep only the different characters and accessories of the range to save some money: The Topi Taupe (or Monty Mole for purists) is also delivered in the set 71363 Desert Pokey sold for 19.99 €, the Super Mushroom is in the set 71366 Boomer Bill Dam sold for € 29.99 and the POW action brick is in the set 71362 Guarded Fortress sold for € 49.99.

I think it is no longer necessary to clarify that the Mario figure is not provided in these expansions, it is only available in the starter pack 71360 Adventures with Mario sold for € 59.99.

The offer that grants this small expansion is only available in the LEGO Stores, but anyone who pre-ordered the Starter Pack when it went live on the Official Store also got it. Too bad for the others.

LEGO having sent two copies of this box to all the blogs of the planet to ensure the promotion of the offer, I put them as usual with a deadline of participation fixed at August 16, 2020 to 23 p.m.
