Mario Kart ride-on coming to UK

Jakks Pacific has partnered with Nintendo to launch the first ever Nintendo licensed Mario Kart ride-on.

Known as the Super Mario Kart Ride-On, the vehicle is the real life counterpart to Mario’s kart as seen in the Mario Kart 7 video game.

While it doesn’t come with a barrage of Red Shells, Banana Skins or speed-boosting mushrooms, it does feature the full range of sound effects from the popular game.

The ride-on will be available throughout the UK from autumn/winter this year and will sit within Jakks Pacific’s portfolio of 6V ride-ons.
