Let kids add an iconic location to their LEGO Super Mario universe with the Peach’s Castle Expansion Set (71408). With this Super Mario construction toy, there is so much for players to explore and many ways to earn digital coins with their interactive LEGO Mario, LEGO Luigi or LEGO Peach figures (not included). The castle toy for kids features a throne room with a spinning wall to reveal Bowser, Peach stained-glass window, a Bob-omb painting with an Action Tag, cake with a Goomba hiding inside, Special Pipe: Peach’s Castle, Time Block, ‘broken’ bridge, fruit bowl with a purple fruit and more. There are also 5 LEGO Super Mario figures for kids to play with – Bowser, Ludwig, Toadette, a Goomba and a Bob-omb (Note: the 71360, 71387 or 71403 Starter Course is required for interactive play.) Kids can enjoy lots of fun LEGO challenges with Princess Peach’s Castle! They can knock Ludwig off the cloud, fix the broken bridge and greet Toadette. See if they can find the Action Tag hidden behind the painting to get a bonus for defeating a Bob-omb. Then eat cake (but beware of the Goomba inside!) and grab the purple fruit. Finally it's time to hop on the Time Block to find Bowser hiding behind the throne and flip him over to defeat him! A top gift for kids aged 8 and over, this Super Mario buildable game includes 5 characters and is ideal for solo or social play. LEGO Super Mario Starter Courses and Expansion Sets allow fans to expand, rebuild and create their own levels for hours of coin-collecting play. Measuring over 11.5 in. (30 cm) high, 14 in. (36 cm) wide and 18.5 in. (48 cm) deep in its basic formation, this modular set can be combined with other LEGO Super Mario sets. Contains 1,216 Pieces.

For a hobby that doesn't and isn't supposed to require electricity and staring at a screen, I don't understand why the booklet to build isn't included. Please revise this decision. That said after having to find cables and chargers for an old iPad to download the app and dealing with a frustrated autistic person. We did feel that perhaps this was helpful given her disabilities. Both options would be good.

Was very excited there was going to be a Peach's castle built, but ultimately this set is capped by the digital theme. I wanted a minifigure scale (with minifigures) version of Peach's castle. This is not fun and disappointing to fans of both Mario and LEGO.

We bought this set for our child for Christmas in 2022. We’ve found he rarely plays with it, mainly because it’s difficult to play with bowser without him crumbling and constantly needing to be rebuilt. Several of the other items in this set are similiar. Overall the set looks nice and the revolving throne is cool as long as you can build it correctly, but we found this set frustrating and wouldn’t recommend it.

We were worried that the throne room would not work properly, as we've read the reviews before the purchase. We gave it a go anyway, and we are very happy that everything works fine, the mechanism works smoothly with no problem, which was a big relief. Our son is super excited playing with this set.

Don't purchase if you are unable to download building instructions on a tablet or computer. Booklets would have been nice, but this purchase is going back.
Fun to build, lots of parts

I enjoyed building this set with my two sons. We already had a few of the other sets and had Princess Peach - but still surprised to see that she does not come with her own castle. The Bowser character doesn't seem to stay together well, and his head breaks off easily. I also would love to see the paper instructions included in the set and the online version as an option. Overall, it's a great set for the price with all the different features.
Digital-only Instructions make this a bore

This set is ok, but it's pricy and uninteresting to build. I get that this is for kids an assumes you'll have the lego app to use with interactive Mario... but taking what would be a nice escape from all of the other screen-based activities in life, this and the rest of the Mario line only offers app-based instructions. Those instructions are also very slow and geared toward small children, with only 1 or 2 pieces per step, animated like a toddler cartoon. When you have a larger set like this one, it just becomes tedious. I would have hoped Lego would have changed this for the newest Donkey Kong sets, but they haven't. It's a real shame.

The LEGO® Super Mario™ app comes with additional features such as 3D instructions with zooming and angle adjustments. If you'd rather stick to the basic PDF instructions, they can be downloaded via LEGO.build/MarioBI-BV!
Fixed the mechanism!

As many other reviews stated, the rotating mechanism is awful on this build. I kept trying to go back and see if I did something wrong. After a lot time reassembling and troubleshooting based on the instructions, and getting very frustrated to find the problem never got better, I started trying to figure out my own way to fix it. I ended up adding 3 pieces to the bottom of the purple square piece that the throne part rests on, and it seems to have fixed the issue! In fact, it now runs so smoothly and neatly and fits better into the space, that I can’t believe this isn’t how it was meant to be built in the first place. It has not come off track since making this adjustment. I am attaching pictures in hopes I can help some others have a better experience with this build! As a fan of Mario and LEGO I think this is a fun set, but I was extremely frustrated and disappointed considering what was paid for this set to encounter this kind of problem, as it was also my first time investing so much into a set and I had really hesitated to do so in the first place. But I hope my pictures showing the added 3 pieces can help anyone else who has the extra pieces lying around!
Be prepared!!

I purchased this Lego set for my daughter’s birthday. She loves legos and the Mario movie. Be ready to spend more money and buy the other packs so you can have princess peach to go with the castle. How can you have peaches castle and not include peach?! Yes it does say it in the box, but come on, just increase the price and have peach included! Also be prepared to download the instructions. There are no printed instructions that come with these sets! We were at a place with no internet celebrating my daughter's birthday and of course she wanted to play with them right away. We opened the box and no instructions. Just a nice booklet instructing you to download the app and directions. Talk about a disappointed and upset child. But once we got home a week later, we were able to download the instructions. Then I had to let my child use my smart phone for quite some time to build. This is just ridiculous. These legos are already expensive enough but to not include the directions is absurd.

We're so sorry to hear you were disappointed. We decided to go with digital instructions for our LEGO® Super Mario™ sets as they are more interactive and allow you to zoom and rotate. We hope it will grow on you and you will have fun building all kinds of levels! You can also find PDF instructions at LEGO.build/MarioBI-BV.

We surprised our son with this castle. He was beyond ecstatic. We don’t have the peach figure yet because we didn’t get her original course but still my son loves to play with it. He is even putting it back into plastic baggies so he can build it all over again this summer. The only hard thing is the price of course but it is Lego..
Legos are the best!

Along with other reviewers, we also have had a very frustrating experience with this set. The throne room consistently comes off anytime we try to rotate it. at first I thought it was because my son made some mistakes in building it so I finally took the entire throne apart and rebuilt it, only to have it to the same results. I tried modifying with a different part in the rotating mechanism, and then it starting popping off in other places. Out of the countless Lego sets we have, this is the first that just doesn’t seem to work, which would probably bother me less if it wasn’t one of the most expensive sets I’ve ever bought. Seriously, unless you will be happy with the throne piece not working at all, I don’t recommend buying this one.
