REVIEW: 60426 Jungle Explorer Off-Road Truck

Recommended Posts

Here is my review on LEGO City 60426 Jungle Explorer Off-Road Truck:

THE GOOD:

  • The Tiger habitat build is great with some nice small details and looks great on its own.
  • The truck build is very refreshing.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

  • If you already own sets from this sub-theme, the minifigures selection can feel repetitive.

My road to complete the map for Jungle Exploring continues.  Originally, only plan to get the tiger when it becomes available from PAB but recently discovered the map from each of the sets from this sub-theme are actually connected, with a 20% off deal, why not getting this as well.   Turns out, this set is pretty good.  I really like the Tiger habitat, it looks great on its old and fairly detailed.  Plus you can connect with other location builds from the same sub-theme.  I already connected 3 of theme and the outcome is great.  The brand new tiger also looks great but it does feel a little bit too orange. The truck is actually pretty refreshing, originally I thought it's going to be just very generic build but it actually built in a way that at least I have never experienced before.  I particularly like recent trend of using small tiles to create exterior patterns.  The minifigures are good but if you bought other sets like me then it does feel a bit repetitive but still great minifigures though.  At 55NZD RRP, with a discount, makes this a very great set.  I do recommend this set if you are into LEGO animals and wants to complete the map.

Thank you.

(I bought that set AND I will try to collect all Exploration sets in 2024 like I did 2023). That tiger was biggest surprise. It is 5/5.

I really like almost everything about this set, and so I was very sad to find the logo tiles are stickered. Printed logo tiles are a basic requirement IMO, so I will have to pass on this one.

I wish LEGO printed those too, I think this logo only have printed on the curved slopes.
