It’s a quintessential icon and I can see why LEGO would want to game, and contained a surprise, often coins, but sometimes Super Mushrooms, 1-Up Mushrooms, Super Stars and other goodies. Question Mark Blocks first appeared in the very first Super Mario Bros. The Question Mark Block in particular is a homage to one of the most influential video games of all time – Super Mario 64, which defined the 3d-gaming era, from the Nintendo 64 onwards.ĭespite being a Super Mario 64 set, the iconic yellow Question Mark Blocks do not make an appearance in the game (the block were red, with exclamation marks), so this really is a mish-mash of Mario elements in itself. LEGO Designers: Carl Merriam, Daire McCabe, and Benjamin Ma Name: 71395 Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block
Special thanks to LEGO for sending this set for review 71395 Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block Set Details I’ve been sitting on this one and procrastinating, but this week’s Mario Day and Princess Peach’s Castle reveals inspired me to finally type out this review! This cycle of large, highly detailed buildable Nintendo objects are incredibly exciting if you have a long history and affinity with Nintendo.Īpologies that this review is a little late. Thankfully, LEGO have not completely forgotten adult LEGO fans, with 2 Nintendo-licensed exclusives – the first being the 2020’s 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System and the 71395 Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block, which was released last year in 2021. The LEGO Super Mario theme is quite divisive amongst LEGO and Nintendo fans, partly because it’s not a typical minifigure-centric theme, and also partly because the phygital play (a portmanteau for physical and digital) isn’t really geared towards adults or older LEGO fans, who contribute most to the online discourse, on blogs, social media or whatnot.
