The LEGO Super Mario Piranha Plant building set (set number 71426) has dropped to $42 at both Amazon and Target, a 30% discount off its regular $60 retail price. This marks the lowest price on the set since last holiday season, making it a solid pickup for Super Mario fans looking for a display piece.

What You Get in the Box
The 540-piece set is built around one of the most iconic enemies in the Super Mario franchise. This isn't just a static display model. The Piranha Plant comes with several posable elements that let you customize how it looks on your shelf:
- An opening and closing mouth
- A bendable vine stalk
- Two leaves that can be angled independently
- Two (fake) coins that can be hidden inside the plant's mouth
- A buildable green warp pipe as the base
Once assembled, the set measures 9 x 4.5 x 6.5 inches. It fits comfortably on a desk, end table, or game room shelf without eating up too much space.
Why This Deal Stands Out
The set hit its all-time low of $35 back in October, but the price had mostly held at $60 since then. This $42 price point is the most significant discount in months, and with no confirmed end date on the promotion, you'll want to move sooner rather than later if you're interested.
For Nintendo fans who missed the holiday window, this is a rare second chance at a meaningful discount. The build itself takes an afternoon, so it also works as a weekend project.
Other LEGO Deals Worth Noting
Alongside the Piranha Plant discount, several other LEGO sets are currently on sale:
The LEGO Super Mario Adventures with Interactive Mario Set is particularly worth a look for younger builders, as it bundles in Bowser Jr., Yoshi, and a range of accessories.
A Display Piece Built for Nintendo Fans
The Piranha Plant set sits alongside two other LEGO Super Mario display models that also lack digital interactivity: the Mario & Standard Kart and the replica Game Boy, both of which launched this year. Display-focused sets like these are designed for adult collectors and fans who want something recognizable on their shelves, not interactive play systems.
The Piranha Plant's warp pipe base is a direct callback to its classic in-game appearance, and the poseable design adds just enough personality to keep it from feeling like a simple static figure.
