Ahead of its October Prime Day sale, Amazon is dropping 20% off the price of the LEGO Super Mario Piranha Plant 71426, now only $47.95 with free shipping. This deal brings the per-brick price to a little less than 9 cents. The LEGO Piranha Plant is relatively new, released in November of 2023, and is one of the most popular Mario-themed LEGO sets around. We've seen this deal pop up at Costco retail locations, but this is only the second time we've seen this price online on Amazon (the only other time being Prime Day back in July).

The LEGO Piranha Plant measures 9" high, 4.5" wide, and 6.5" deep – about the size of a potted plant – and consists of 540 bricks. The set is marketed for ages 18+, which means it's catered towards adults and experienced builders. However, this is such an adorable looking set that it's sure to be a hit with kids of all ages, whether or not they join in on the build.

The Piranha Plant makes for a fantastic display; it has numerous articulation points located at the head, mouth, stalk, and each of its leaves, and the jaw is also hinged, all of which allow for myriad customizable poses. There's even a cool little easter egg: A piggy bank is built into the pipe with two golden coins included to get you started on your stash.

IGN writer Kevin Wong personally built this set in his LEGO Piranha Plant review and writes, "As far as LEGO builds are concerned, the new Piranha Plant is just about perfect – vibrantly colored, well-proportioned and sized, and reasonably priced. Whether you're new to bricks or you're a dedicated hobbyist, this set captures that signature Mario franchise whimsy – cute but not too cute, menacing but not too menacing, and imbued with lots of personality."
