Nintendo and LEGO have been enjoying a very successful collaboration over the last several years. They’ve partnered on multiple LEGO sets featuring Mario characters, and now we have word that there might be another one on the way.

The set in question can be seen above, and is called “Super Mario World: Mario & Yoshi”. As you can see, it features the iconic image of Mario riding Yoshi, as seen in the SNES game Super Mario World. According to the box, this would be a 1,215 piece set. It appears to include a crank at the bottom, which would presumably cause Mario and Yoshi to move when turned. It’s also rumored that the set will cost $130.

As of now, this set has not been officially announced by LEGO or Nintendo. However, the boxart was shared by LEGO leaker @fateful_lego on Instagram, and a glimpse at the finished build was also caught by Twitter user @dveese at San Diego Comic-Con. All signs point to this being the real deal, but we’ll have to wait and see. Stay tuned!
