Lego’s new Mario Kart set is missing Luigi’s angry eyebrow death stare.

Lego’s supersized Mario Kart set that debuted exactly a year ago is getting some competition. A 2,234-piece Luigi version is now available for preorder for $179.99 before launching on April 1st. It features Luigi in the Mach 8 kart that was immortalized in the viral death stare video, but without Luigi’s angry, rage-filled expression.

<em>Luigi’s eyes and brows are printed on tile pieces, so re-creating his death stare may require some rebuilding.</em>
<em>The set includes a display stand, a posable Luigi figure, a spinning flame exhaust, and functional steering.</em>
<em>Preorders are open now, but shipping won’t start until next month.</em>
