Hot Wheels and Nintendo recently teamed up for a new Mario Kart release, and now is definitely time to buckle up for it. The Mario Kart Rainbow Road Raceway is available to order here at Walmart for $55 as part of an early Black Friday deal. That’s 54% off the list price and an all-time low by a considerable margin. Even Amazon is listing it for $104.90 at the time of writing. While you’re at it, you might want to take advantage of the 50% off Walmart+ deal to snag even more Black Friday sales through November. The deal ends just before midnight ET on 11/3.
According to the official description for the Mario Kart Rainbow Road Hot Wheels set, the track measures 8-feet long and features five translucent rainbow-colored race lanes that can be configured for a winding or straight path. Up to five Mario Kart 1:64 scale die-cast metal karts can launch at the electronic start gate – an exclusive King Boo and Mario are included with the set. “Once the karts get racing, they may face banked turns or a wavy road and must pass through the Item Box randomizer to win! Lights and sounds announce the winner at the finish gate”.
