Last month, Nintendo teased a brand-new Lego Donkey Kong<\/a> set via the Nintendo Today<\/a> app. In an update, it seems we’ve now got our first look via a leak.<\/p>\n

According to a photo doing the rounds online, this new set is based on the classic ‘Donkey Kong Arcade’ video game. It will apparently be arriving in August for $200 USD and contains 1,367 pieces.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look via the Legoleak<\/a> subreddit:<\/p>\n

Lego previously expanded its Super Mario<\/a> Lego line with smaller Donkey Kong sets featuring not only DK, but other characters like Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong.<\/p>\n

This news about a premium Donkey Kong set follows Lego’s reveal of multiple new Pok\u00e9mon<\/a> sets earlier this week.<\/p>\n

It’s on like Pokemon, too. \ud83d\udd34\u26aa
$300 dollars worth!<\/p>\n

\"Friendly\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Yeah, this one certainly is cool. Peaks my interest at least.<\/p>\n

Now how do I convince my better half that we absolutely need this\u2026?<\/p>\n

\"timp29\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

That\u2019s pretty awesome. I don\u2019t think I would go for that one though.<\/p>\n

\"sleepinglion\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"TheBoilerman\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

I like that! Probably have to get that one.<\/p>\n

\"AGuyWhoLikesNintendo\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

This will look great next to my Pac-Man arcade set!<\/p>\n

\"Allahver_Fist\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

“HEY, Donkey Kong LEGO set Insufficient Funds to Complete Transaction screen coming up, everybody!…”<\/p>\n

\"Dee123\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Damn it. Looks like after saying no more Lego, I’m getting more Lego.<\/p>\n

\"gwyntendo\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Not a Lego guy but might have to break the rules for that one.<\/p>\n

\"JohnnyMind\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Most likely I won’t go for it myself considering the usual factors (price, lack of space for it etc.), but it looks great – happy for those getting it and so glad to see the Nintendo Lego sets continuing!<\/p>\n

\"Uncle_Franklin\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Looks pretty cool,
but at what point does it stop really being Lego?<\/p>\n

\"8bit-Man\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

The good ol\u2019 days where DK was still a villain, like he was designed to be.<\/p>\n

I love Bananza from a gameplay perspective, but the DK persona makes zero sense these days. Then again, that\u2019s also typical Nintendo.<\/p>\n

\"Jayenkai\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\"KayFiOS\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Billy Mitchell will get this and replace the black parts for the joystick with red ones.<\/p>\n

\"Samalik\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

If they made it playable, that would be REAL cool<\/p>\n
