LEGO has announced that the upcoming Super Mario range will release in SA sometime in September. Along with the starter packs which were revealed a couple of weeks ago, the brand plans to release a range of new expansions too. The LEGO Super Mario South African pricing has officially been announced and it is not cheap at all. Users who want to own them all will have to fork out quite a penny to do so. However, those looking for the starter pack and one expansion might be able to do so on a budget.
