There’s an extra playable character in LEGO Super Mario 71410 Character Packs – Series 5
Peach, Mario and Luigi all have interactive figures in LEGO Super Mario but a new set features a character who deserves one too.
Various Super Mario titles and spin-offs have allowed you to play as Yoshi and Toad, of which a purple and red variant are included in 71410 Character Packs – Series 5. However, there’s another playable character in this series.
Nabbit was a playable character in New Super Luigi U and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, one of the main games in the Super Mario franchise. While they’re certainly not a recognisable member of the cast, they could qualify for an interactive figure with these credentials in mind.

Of course, that’s not the case and it doesn’t necessarily need to be. Seeing the LEGO Super Mario design team embrace the many obscure characters from across the franchise with the character packs makes for a fun and nostalgic experience, even though they are no longer identifiable without opening the pack.
LEGO Super Mario 71410 Character Packs – Series 5 is available now on the official online store for £4.99 / $5.99 / €5.99 with Nabbit, a Purple Toad, Hammer Bro, Waddlewing, Toady, Baby Yoshi, Red Yoshi and Blue Shy Guy.
