"LEGO® Super Mario™ fans can take on a fast-spinning challenge with this Boomer Bill Barrage Expansion Set (71366). A great gift for kids to add to their LEGO Super Mario Starter Course (71360), this collectible toy playset features a spinner with 2 ‘flying’ Boomer Bill figures and a rotating platform with 2 difficulty levels (with or without studs). An enemy Shy Guy figure and a Super Mushroom boost the gameplay options.
Fun app
The free LEGO Super Mario app has intuitive Instructions PLUS, featuring cool viewing tools to make building easier and even more fun. It also suggests different ways to rebuild and play, and is a safe environment for kids to share ideas with other Mario fans.
Competitive action
Inspirational LEGO Super Mario playsets bring a family-favorite character into the real world. The Starter Course, Expansion Sets and Power-Up Packs allow fans to build their own levels and then try to master them in competitions with friends and family or solo gameplay."

Stick to bricks....
" My children were very excited knowing Lego Mario was on its way! They started to see it advertised and were glad I ordered it for them!
Upon arrival I sat down with my son (8) and daughter (6), both desperate to start building. At this point I usually let them crack on with the instructions and chip in when needed! However this time I had to help right from the start...despite being for their age group they struggled to understand the concept of it and with no instructions were a little stumped!
Upon reading the leaflet we realised we needed to download the app, this took a little time and once ready we started to navigate through the menus....the site seemed a little clunky and we had to restart on a couple of occasions, once in we started to build the set.
I must admit doing online seemed easier for them and they enjoyed the interaction setting up Mario...but this is almost where it ended! We built the course and jumped Mario around collecting coins, but soon got bored and found although it was a great idea, it had limited appeal for long lengths of play once built!
A real shame as the premise is exciting, just doesn’t have a lot of longevity and expensive for the limited amount of Lego you get....the money clearly goes into the app and the interactive characters....Will stick to classic Lego in the future... "
