Like these Camaros

" This was a good set. We didn't like the visible studs on the new Camaro's hood and trunk. Put on white tiles to cover them up, looks like dual racing strips. Much better in our opinion.

Pros
Nice build on vehicles
like the old Camaro
Starting gate

Cons
None "

Big truck, nice set

" Nice set. Big truck kids can play with. ATV's while simple get a lot of play time.

Truck is large for city scale (almost 8 studs wide a the bed). If your building a city or want something in scale, may want to pass on this one. If you are looking for something fun for the kids to play with than a good buy.

Just got the service station set. The tow truck from that set can fit in the bed of this one. Looks kinda odd with a tiny tow truck pulling a truck twice its size. "

Great little set, ton of play value

" This is one of my personal favorite sets from Lego in a long time. The plane and the boat builds are both great. Helicopter so so. Have gotten play value well over my $20 investment.

Lego needs to make more sets like these....Great price, mini figs fit in cockpit, interesting build. This set is a must buy if you like repeat builds and such. "

Fun set

" Kids enjoy playing with this set. Camper is not as large as some in the past, but still good play value. Currently can get for $13 at a few stores, real steal at that price.

Lego should make more sets like these. Only thing I can complain about is it not coming with a canoe/kayak like the last ones. Understand needing to keep the parts count down for this price. Maybe in the future Lego could offer a camping mini fig expansion set. "

Good few short comings, glad Logo produced

" Writing this review if you are on the fence about getting this for your kids. Not including price (its expense) you can make your own mind up on that one.

Pros:
Nice for lego to offer a service station
Looks good, like Octan colors
Lot of stuff to play with
Easy to build
Fits on one 32 by 32 base plate

Cons:
Tow truck is smaller than the car provided
Inside building play area is only 4 studs deep
Pizza shop is literally 2 chairs, a table and a tile with a pizza on it.
Only 4 mini figs, no pizza shop worker.

We are planning the following modification to our set. Expanding the building play area from 4 studs to 8 studs deep. As there is so little supplied for the pizza shop, we are going to delete it and make this area ether more of a convince store or vehicle service area. Will move the chairs and table out side so mini figs have a place to eat.

Recommendation to Lego: Idea of the set is great. If you provide a similar set in the future recommend the following: Make the building deeper. Add some hoses and accessories on the side of the building to add air to tires, vacuum, etc. Instead if a pizza shop, have a small service area with tools, tires, etc. Feel these would kids more play value. To keep price down would delete the road tiles and street cleaner. While both are nice, feel more play value with suggestions above. "
