Gotta say I’m really disappointed with all of the specialty large molded parts. It feels like Nintendo doesn’t understand what makes LEGO special compared to competitor brands and is trying to push them toward the Megablox or COBI direction. These specialty pieces is part of what almost killed LEGO as a company in the early 2000s.
I never preorder games, but I preordered this. I just hope it's a bit to scale with Bowser. Or that I custom builds come with Luigi, or even a kart for Bowser.
I get OPs comments but I'm not sure Nintendo is at fault. Lego is producing new parts that are never seen before. If you want to sort your Lego it's hard to keep up

Line must go up. More products must expand. Everything that made company special must be lost in the wash of selling everything to everyone at the same time. There is someone in sales and marketing at Lego (and every other company) telling them they should start selling Lego mattresses, Lego branded milk, Lego firecrackers.
They jammed their funnel into movies, pop culture, what's next teen angst Legos? Midlife comfort Legos?
