This thing will hit shelves on April 1st, 2026, though pre-orders opened on March 10, perfect timing for Mario Day. With this new set, the Mach 8 (Luigi\u2019s hallmark ride in Mario Kart 8) receives its first large-scale LEGO makeover.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-237238\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"New LEGO Luigi Mario Kart 8 Set\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7bC5g7MLwLM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>Building this thing will require a lot of dedication, but when it\u2019s finished, you\u2019ll have a kart that measures 16 inches long, 10 inches tall, and 9 inches broad. Every curve and angle has been precisely replicated from the game to produce an extremely detailed, incredibly sleek green speed machine that looks exactly like the one in the game.<\/p>\n<p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/10102638\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-1.jpg\" alt=\"LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Mach 8 Set 72050\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/10102643\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-2.jpg\" alt=\"LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Mach 8 Set 72050\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>\nIt\u2019s also worth noting that the build contains a really cool custom buildable Luigi figure that allows you to posture his head, arms, and hands whatever you like. You can even convince him to adjust his grip on the wheel or look sideways as he speeds around the circuit. As an added plus, the design allows you to remove him from the kart and display him independently if you choose.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/10102646\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-3.jpg\" alt=\"LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Mach 8 Set 72050\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/10102656\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-4.jpg\" alt=\"LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Mach 8 Set 72050\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Speaking of the kart, it\u2019s more than just a pretty face, as the front wheels will move in unison with the steering wheel, giving you that true Mario Kart experience. If you\u2019re really into it, you can even spin the back wheels and watch the flaming exhaust pipe pop out for more motion. To be honest, we\u2019re impressed that these mechanics don\u2019t require any electronics at all, just set the kart free on the provided stand and it\u2019ll happily roll forward or sit tilted up in a drift.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/10102701\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-box.jpg\" alt=\"LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Mach 8 Set 72050 Box\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\"\/><br \/>The stand is really clever since it allows you to position the kart at various dynamic angles, giving the impression that it is going to take off at any moment. And if you combine it with last year\u2019s Mario &amp; Standard Kart set (which, fun fact, is offered separately), you can create a pretty cool side-by-side rivalry display, complete with Luigi\u2019s green machine pitted against Mario\u2019s red one.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> LEGO Mario Kart Luigi Set (72050) Lets Fans Build A Display Ready Mach 8<br \/>\n<br \/>#LEGO #Mario #Kart #Luigi #Set #Lets #Fans #Build #Display #Ready #Mach<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LEGO has just unveiled the Mario Kart \u2013 Luigi &amp; Mach 8 set (72050), a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3113,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[332,1817,1085,2985,2580,2581,2986,2987,2984,838,716],"class_list":["post-3112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech","tag-build","tag-display","tag-fans","tag-kart","tag-lego","tag-lets","tag-luigi","tag-mach","tag-mario","tag-ready","tag-set"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050.jpg",960,640,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-768x512.jpg",640,427,true],"large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050.jpg",640,427,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050.jpg",960,640,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050.jpg",960,640,false],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050.jpg",960,640,false],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/lego-mario-kart-luigi-mach-8-set-72050-540x340.jpg",540,340,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/news678.top\/?author=1"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/news678.top\/?cat=8\" rel=\"category\">Tech<\/a>","tag_info":"Tech","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3112"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3112\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
