REVIEW: 40694 River Camping Adventure

[Pchan1983]

Here is my review on LEGO Friends 40694 River Camping Adventure:

THE GOOD:

• Great little set looking good with a fun tent build.
• Lots of cool parts included in this.
• Extra leaves allowing you to change season.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

• none

Only got this last week because of order arriving late but it's totally worth the wait.  Despite being a small GWP type LEGO set, this set is actually better than a lot of other sets available at this price point.  First it's looks good and also was pretty fun to build.  It's nice to see instead of a plastic film material type of tent, they opted to do brick built.  The end results is greet with interesting use of parts and a few stickers to enhance the design.  It even features 2 lovely sleep bags build inside.  The overall terrain is great, again use of sticker to give it more details on the river and it's actually look good on every angle rather than just a front facing build.   There are also some interesting parts included in this like the printed beetle tile, printed minifig head as a jar of fire flies.  And there's more, LEGO also included extra leaves in different colour to let you change the season.  The minidolls are Paisley and Nova which I like because you get 2 cool hair pieces which you can use for minifigures if that's your preference.  It's really one of the best GWP this year and I would totally recommend this if you can still get your hands onto this =)
