  I'm old enough to have been playing Mario since the NES first came out and this really does emulate Super Mario Bros 1 and 3 perfectly. Fun to build (although the boy built this particular section of the course) and looks great when finished. Partly because of the colours chosen but also because you can genuinely mix and match all the pieces in to any order you like. This gets even better when you have multiple series kits although the 1 minute timer does mean you have no hope of completing a large course. I thought it would be nice if when you click Start on the app it asks you which kits you have your course built from and it adjusts the timer to suit. Mario himself is really nicely rendered and the voice is accurate to the game Mario. Fortunately you can turn the voice off as it did begin to grate after a bit of play. The kit not only has the unique Mario figure but it also has the start pipe and the end flag. Keep these separate if you have multiple kits to make building courses easier. The big downside for me was that you have no build instructions in the kit it all has to be downloaded through the app. Make sure your device has full battery before you start, especially if you are building multiple sets in the series at the same time or else you can get in the situation I was in where 2 bags from the end my battery died. I would definitely have preferred to have a full instruction book with the kit. I was tempted to mark this down because of my dissatisfaction with the build instruction situation but, you know what, it is such a fun kit to build and play I really couldn't bring myself to do it. Number Of Pieces: 231 Approximate Price Per Piece: £4.62 Build Time: 45 Minutes

  Fantastic for Mario fans

  My 8 year old son is so impressed by the new Super Mario Starter course as am I! He loves that he could download and app to his iPad to give him instructions for each stage of the build. He did not ask for help at all during the build (which he thoroughly enjoyed) which was great. Mario requires 2AAA batteries as he interacts with some of the bricks similar to the Super Mario console games. He’s really great fun and my son absolutely love’s how he interacts during play. It’s a fantastic set and would make a great gift for any Mario fan dare I say young or old!

  Everyone knows the classic super mario game and this has gone one step better ! I love Lego and I love Super Mario and this Lego Starter Kit is amazingly interactive . The instructions have moved away from the classic booklets and now appear on an app that you download to your device , this in the long run will save paper and ensure you never lose the instructions! (I am not the only one whose done that am I? ) It does add to he timing as it can take some time to download everything . The small intricate details really set this apart from other sets and I really believe that this range is one of a kind. The build quality is that as I'd expect from lego and I love it. The colour really stand out and I love the vibrancy of the colours and how they compliment each other .From the little Mario to the boomf and the pipe. Everything has been thought about and it is a great way to bring Super Mario to life ! I love this and have had a great time playing on it with the kids. Overall I feel as though this is a great addition to the Lego Brand.

  Happy kids happy mom actually for me was looking hard to make it The starter course comprises of a few special pieces that are exclusive to this set and includes the start pipe, cloud platform, a question block, a Goomba, Bowser platforms and the goal pole, the star of the show is the interaction figure. There are no building instructions included with the LEGO Adventures with Mario Starter Course, you will have to use the LEGO Mario app, which gives you step by step instructions. really enjoyed doing and is a fun departure for kids and adults i guess i fund it bit difficult for me lol but as long they enjoy that's important, good price and well packed i can say was very carefully packed . Well built piece, good quality of
