Mario Kart – Standard Kart (LEGO 72032)

About this set

This is LEGO Super Mario Kart – Standard Kart (72032), a small scene set with 174 pieces in the box and a difficulty of 2/5, so the build is easy to pick up. The finished model is a kart with a red-and-white canopy, a wrench, a target and flame effect pieces, plus a banana figure and a red-and-white mushroom-head figure; a battery box is also among the parts. The color mix runs red, white, black, yellow, blue, gray, green and brown, with the red-and-white scheme matching the classic Mario Kart look. I would start with the chassis and body, then attach the canopy and rear flame effects, and finally place the figures, wrench and target. With this part count the main fuss is the canopy support and the angle of the flame pieces, but following the numbered bags keeps it smooth. The result is compact and a good fit for newcomers to LEGO Super Mario or anyone wanting a small kart scene on a desk.
