After teasing it a while ago, reviving the tease earlier this week and then the first set being leaked early, Lego have officially announced the Donkey Kong sets for the Lego Super Mario series.

The four new products include Donkey Kong’s Tree House Expansion Set, Diddy Kong’s Mine Cart Ride Expansion Set, Dixie Kong’s Jungle Jam Expansion Set and Rambi the Rhino Expansion Set.

“The excitement continues to grow for the LEGO Super Mario franchise with yet another playful update. We’re welcoming the iconic Donkey Kong into the LEGO Super Mario product line! We can’t wait to see how the four Expansion Sets inspire kids to discover the new wild and colourful jungle from the Donkey Kong universe, whether that’s hanging out in the tree house, riding a mine cart, jamming out with Dixie Kong or exploring with Rambi.”

— Simon Kent, Design Director at the LEGO Group

While the sets do work on their own, much like most of the Lego Super Mario sets, they are designed to work with the Lego Mario, Lego Luigi or Lego Peach sets. All the sets are expected to release on August 1st.
