Lego Super Mario is bringing Dry Bowser Castle to fans and teasing more to come

As part of the ‘Mario Day’ celebrations in America, the Lego Group hosted a live stream that let them debut a new set for the Lego Super Mario series. Say hello to the Dry Bowser Castle Battle Expansion Set.

This new set features an opening Bowser-jaw-shaped entrance, a crane to rescue the Purple Toad from the trap and topple Dry Bowser, flippers to defeat the Bone Piranha Plant and Bone Goomba, a Magmaargh attack function, gym, secret entrance, secret strategy room, Key Block and a Treasure Chest Block.

As this is designed as part of the Lego Super Mario series of playsets, a Lego Mario, Lego Luigi or Lego Peach starter set is required to make full use of it.

The set is set to release on August 1st and is priced at $169.95, orders can be made direct from Lego before then and selected retailers.

The presentation ended with the reveal that a new Donkey Kong themed series is on the way, with the man ape himself being shown off. What is interesting is that he has a basket a platform in general, which lets Mario or the others ride along.
