A new Lego Yoshi set is on the way, and from what I can tell, it won't be small.

Teased via the Nintendo Today app (which provides personalized updates for you based on the games you like), the Lego Yoshi set only appears in an extreme close up - but that's enough to hint at its size. This is also a 'for adults' model, suggesting that it's a display piece rather than a playset like the upcoming 2027 range. Some of the best Lego sets have been Super Mario collector's items, so the bar is pretty high here.

All we can see of the new kit is its face, with eyes and part of a nose poking out the side of the screen. However, it's possible to guess how large it'll be by the size of the pieces on display... and from what I can tell, it'll be to scale with the Mario and Standard Kart set (which may tell us something about price, because that one's currently $150 on Amazon). The curved pieces with a single stud on the nose are around an inch long across at the widest point, for example, so we know for a fact that Lego Yoshi's snout is gonna be hefty by itself. With that in mind, we can assume the full figure will be at least a foot tall.

Those same pieces were also used for the Lego Piranha Plant set's head, so that gives a vague idea of what we're looking at here.
