Lego Super Mario Prince Florian & Castle Bowser

?? LEGO® Super Mario™ Prince Florian & Castle Bowser (72042) – The Flying Fortress of the Wonder Kingdom
Bring the climactic showdown of Super Mario Bros.™ Wonder to life with the LEGO® Super Mario™ Prince Florian & Castle Bowser (72042) — a 1,251?piece expansion set that fuses display presence with interactive play potential. Released August 1, 2025, this buildable boss battle is packed with cinematic detail, role?play features, and Nintendo nostalgia.
The towering Castle Bowser model stands over 31 cm (12.5 in.) high × 21 cm (8 in.) wide × 22 cm (8.5 in.) deep, perched on a display stand that can be lifted to “fly” the fortress into battle. Remove the top section to unleash fireball?shooting action, or open the structure to reveal a detailed interior complete with a cell to imprison Prince Florian.
This set includes five Nintendo characters — Prince Florian, Pink Yoshi, Wonder Bowser Jr., Fiery Note Piranha, and the massive buildable Castle Bowser himself. For full digital interactivity, add LEGO® Mario™, LEGO® Luigi™, or LEGO® Peach™ (sold separately) to trigger reactions, score coins, and play out the final boss battle.
For collectors, the combination of exclusive character molds, mechanical play features, and its tie?in to a major Nintendo release makes 72042 a prime investment piece in the Super Mario line — especially as flagship expansion sets tend to retire quickly and appreciate in value.
