For a long time now, Nintendo fans have been crying out for themed LEGO sets based on their favourite video games. While Super Mario probably wasn't the number one request, that's how this collaboration between the two famous companies will begin.

Right now, apart from the initial reveal, there's been nothing officially mentioned about a price or release date for these upcoming Mario themed sets. Now, though, GoNintendo has supposedly received a tip from a "Target Insider" about this new line. Here's the full rundown:

According to Target's internal systems, we can expect LEGO Super Mario to make its debut in August 2020. The listing right now says Aug. 1st, 2020, but we're not sure if that's placeholder. Along with that, the listing is for the starter set in particular, which is priced at $70. No details on what's included in that, or if other sets will launch the same day.

Keep in mind, there is nothing concrete about this information, and it's far from an official announcement. Still, an August launch sounds feasible – so we guess we'll just have to wait and find out. In the meantime, you can learn more about this new LEGO theme in the original announcement post.
