LEGO Super Mario Mario Kart: Wario & King Boo (72038) Buildable Cars with Drifting & Gliding

Bring Mario Kart Mayhem to Life with LEGO Super Mario 72038

Dive into a hands-on racing adventure inspired by the beloved video game series. The LEGO Super Mario Mario Kart Wario & King Boo set (72038) invites kids 8+ to build two iconic karts—Wario's menacing Badwagon and King Boo's eerie Teddy Buggy—and then stage high-energy showdowns on a mini track. With shell-launch action and drift-ready wheels, the racing fun feels fast, tactile, and very real, all while encouraging creativity and imaginative storytelling through pretend play. The detachable glider on the Badwagon adds a surprise aerial twist that can elevate chase scenes and outcomes, letting imagination guide the pace of every race.

Beyond the thrill of speed, this set centers on hands-on assembly and role-play that mirrors how players interact with the larger LEGO Super Mario universe. Kids can personalize their races by mixing in LEGO Mario, Luigi, or Peach minifigures (sold separately) to trigger in-game style sounds and visual cues, turning a simple build into an interactive experience with authentic kart racing vibes. The included cones help shape a customized course, so every play session can feel like a fresh, new track with room for up to bigger adventures as you connect other Mario Kart sets.
