Lego Mario is getting some help from his brother this summer, with the Lego Super Luigi Starter Course lands Aug. 1. The $60 set is available to preorder now and got a charming trailer. on Tuesday.

It consists of 280 pieces, is compatible with the Mario sets and includes pink Yoshi, Boom Boom and a Bone Goomba along with Luigi.
