The LEGO Piranha Plant measures 9" high, 4.5" wide, and 6.5" deep, resembling a potted plant, and is made up of 540 bricks. Designed for ages 18+, this set appeals to adult and experienced builders, yet its charming design is sure to captivate kids of all ages, whether they're involved in the building process or not.
This set is perfect for display with multiple articulation points at the head, mouth, stalk, and leaves, allowing for various pose customizations. The jaw is also hinged, adding to the display options. A delightful surprise is the piggy bank built into the pipe, complete with two golden coins to start your collection.
In his review, IGN's Kevin Wong, who personally built this set, praised it saying, "As far as LEGO builds go, the new Piranha Plant is just about perfect – vibrantly colored, well-proportioned and sized, and reasonably priced. Whether you're new to LEGO or a dedicated hobbyist, this set captures the signature Mario franchise whimsy – cute but not too cute, menacing but not too menacing, and full of personality."
