New LEGO Mario Kart Sets Launching May 15

LEGO enthusiasts, mark your calendars! While most new sets debut on the first of the month, some exceptional releases defy this schedule. Today, May 15, brings us three exciting new sets, with a standout Mario Kart set leading the charge. Let's dive into the LEGO sets that are hitting the shelves today.

LEGO Mario Kart: Mario & Standard Kart

Priced at $169.99, available at the LEGO Store and Walmart, this set is a must-have for IGN readers and Nintendo fans alike. Designed for builders aged 18 and up, this set is a detailed display piece rather than a play set. It beautifully captures the essence of Mario Kart, arriving just in time for the buzz around the upcoming Mario Kart World on the Switch 2.

LEGO Icons Shuttle Carrier Aircraft

For $229.99 at the LEGO Store, you can embark on a space-themed building adventure with the LEGO Icons Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. This set allows you to construct a Boeing 747 and the NASA Space Shuttle Enterprise, adding to the legacy of space-themed LEGO sets. Perfect for adult collectors, it's an ideal display piece for any space enthusiast's desk or shelf.

LEGO Art: Keith Haring – Dancing Figures

Also launching today for $119.99 at the LEGO Store, the LEGO Art: Keith Haring – Dancing Figures set brings the iconic artwork to life. Build and display five vibrant, boldly outlined dancing figures that can be hung on a wall or showcased on stands.

LEGO Mario Kart Spiny Shell - LEGO Insiders Rewards Center

LEGO Insiders can redeem 2,500 points for the LEGO Super Mario: Mario Kart - Spiny Shell, available through the LEGO Insiders Rewards Center. This set recreates the infamous Blue Shell from the Mario Kart series. Remember, you'll need to make a purchase at the LEGO Store to use the promo code you receive in exchange for your points.
