It might be MAR10 day, but his green-clad brother is receiving some love too, as Lego just debuted the Luigi & Mach 8 Mario Kart set.

Built using 2,234 pieces, this premium build should look like the perfect (friendly) rival to the 1,972-piece Mario & Standard Kart Mario Kart build Lego already offers — though with flames spewing out the back of his Mach 8, I suspect Luigi might have the edge in this particular static competition.

He also has the edge in pricing, meaning his set (which is bigger than Mario's piece-wise) costs $179.99 / £159.99 compared to Mario's $169.99 / £149.99 Kart price. Though price aside, I’d definitely opt for the Mach 8 over Mario and his standard kart.
