Today's set is number 7639 Camper. There's a link to it on yesterday's blog. Just looking at the box, it's a pretty nice looking camper.

If you are smart, like me, you'll realize it's a redo of Surf N' Sail Camper. Here's the picture.

So anyway, back to the review. The overview promises a small camper/R.V. with at least a chair inside besides the driver seat.
And, looking at the picture below, Lego didn't disappoint. Actually, they passed the standard. Two chairs!
The accessories are slightly lame. Two mugs. Bleh. A bike. Cool! A surfboard that I'm not excited about because I have no idea what to do with it. A pot. Bleh. And lastly, a fish on a glowy trans-red grill-tile. Really, Lego Company. I could do better. I would have at least made a decent grill!
Guy: (speaks in monotone voice) Wow, I never knew a fish on a glowy red thing could be so exciting.
Girl: (speaks in monotone voice) This is even better than the Fireplace channel!
I think this is supposed to be some sort of bed. I'm not sure, but the girl figure can't fit in it because of her awesome hair.
At least they added a ladder on the back.
My rating of this set:
7/10 for pieces
10/10 for playability
10/10 for minifigures
4/10 for vehicle itself
5/10 for acessories
All in all... 8/10. A pretty good set, but obviously more geared towards children under 10. Well, that's all for today. I'm off to modify the set and listen to some Gorillaz.
Ciao!

you can stick the fish's top flipper in the grill.
