The LEGO Super Mario Piranha Plant set 71426 has dropped to $37.79 on Amazon — a 37% discount and the lowest price this Mario-themed 18+ set has ever hit. Amazon is price-matching a Target deal that launched over the weekend, and shipping is free.
The set is 540 pieces and measures roughly 9 inches tall, making it about the size of an actual potted plant. It has articulation points at the head, mouth, stalk, and leaves, plus a hinged jaw for poseable display options. There's also a hidden piggy bank inside the pipe, complete with two golden coins. IGN's own Kevin Wong called it "just about perfect — vibrantly colored, well-proportioned and sized, and reasonably priced," adding that it nails the Mario franchise's balance of cute and menacing.
The timing matters: according to Brick Fanatics — a source with a solid track record on LEGO retirement dates — set 71426 is slated to retire on July 31 alongside several other Mario sets. LEGO hasn't officially confirmed this, but if Brick Fanatics is right, stock will start disappearing fast once word spreads.
If you've been sitting on the fence about this one, the combination of an all-time low price and a potential retirement deadline makes now the obvious time to grab it.
