LEGO Super Mario set 71365, “Piranha Plant Power Slide Expansion Set”, is an expansion module built around a Piranha Plant and a sliding play section. Released in 2020 under the Super Mario theme, it contains 217 pieces and is positioned as an add-on to the 71360 starter course experience.

Set 71365 belongs to the LEGO Super Mario theme and represents an obstacle-based section inspired by the video game setting. Its focus is a Piranha Plant course module, designed to expand a modular play layout rather than serve only as a stand-alone display scene.

The retail title specifically refers to combining it with the 71360 starter course, which defines its role as an expansion. The build is centered on a power slide feature and the recognizable Piranha Plant subject, with a layout intended to fit into larger course arrangements.

It is aimed at builders who want to extend a LEGO Super Mario course for play, display, or theme-based collecting. Within the Super Mario range, it sits among the expansion sets that add obstacles and variety to an existing setup.
