Lego's Super Mario sets haven't had any of the game's leading ladies since it was introduced two years ago. But that's about to change, at least for Princess Peach. Lego commemorates Mar10 Day by bringing the princess to its Super Mario Adventures range. 

Her Starter Course will be available on August 1 for US$60 (approx. CA$76). A combo Cat Peach suit and Frozen Tower expansion set will launch on the same day for US$80 (approx. CA$102). There will also be other Super Mario expansion sets and accessories coming on that day. Lego has even teased Peach's Castle, Yoshi's Gift house, and Goomba's Shoe sets, but we don't know when these will come out and for how much.
