Finally, a great new camper!

Posted by aplbomr79 in United States on 30 December 2009

This set packs a lot into a tight space. It is very realistic and is very playable out of the box. The construction was enough to keep the most veteran Legocians interested during its construction.

Pros:
1. Matchbook opening of the rear of the camper
2. SurfBoard AND Bike stored on the roof!
3. Everything packs well in the rear of the Camper.

Cons:
1. Grill... very rudimentary


Other thoughts: There is no Trailer as the campers of the past have included. This set could have been expanded further with an addition of a trailer of some sort... but would have raised the cost.

I am very impressed with Lego. Most companies are trying to lessen the cost of their toys and cheapen them. Lego instead includes extra pieces in every set that I have recently purchased... most of which are small pieces that are easily lost. Kudos Lego!

Nice camper, about time!

Posted by Zapp Brannigan in Canada on 28 December 2009

As I mentioned before, Lego did not really focus on releasing these kinds of sets for a very long time. The last camper was released over 15 years ago (6351 Surf n' Sail Camper). Nowadays it's mostly police, fire, and construction. This set is a nice change, and nicely done as well.

Pros:
-Camper is sleek, durable, and has a really thick hull for its body. It could be bulletproof.
-There are 2 cups, pan, TV, surfboard, bicycle, portable grill, fish, and 2 minifigures
-There is a crawl space that allows access between the cab and living area
-There is a sleeping area right below the wind deflector (large white piece)
-Ladder at the back allows access to the roof in case you want to get the surfboard or bicycle
-Back opens to allow access to interior. A clip and pin prevent the back from swinging open when the camper is moving
-Nice lime green outlines
-Opening doors for cab! An idea that Lego has abandoned for over 10 years!

Cons:
-No side mirrors
-Grill is not built in to the camper
-Nowhere to put the fish

Overall great set and great deal at $17.99 CDN. I suggest you get it whenever you see, because who knows, the next camper might not be released for another 15 years!

Epic camping, just with the Camper!

Posted by Patofan in Spain on 28 November 2009

This is probably one of the best sets of City line.
It has lots of accesories, 2 good-designed minifigs, and a clean and smooth design.

The colour scheme goes great with the design, and the interior is mediumly dettailled.

Pros:
-Minifigs
-Bike, surf table, horn, TV...
-Clean and smooth design.
-Small quantity of stickers

Cons:
-Horn cant be inside
-Holes at wheels

Brick Holiday!

Posted by Ben.r.l in United Kingdom on 22 November 2009

The camper is a fantastic little vehicle filled with features and grand surprises! The vehicle is robust and opens up to reveal the insides which includes a little table and even a wall-mounted television, A clever holding pin attaches at the back to fix it closed and prevent the camper flying open while it's driving along.

The surf board and Bicycle are standard but nevertheless very appeciated extras! The set even includes a small portable stove with a fish to fry, unfortunately though this has to be stored while our lego friends are driving along.

Room for sleeping quarters is suggested but I can't imagine it's very comfortable on the floor and without a mattress!

A very good set and comes highly recommended.
