Today we will do an unboxing of the new FunWhole Lookout Campground Set. The set number is F9022 and it has 1426 pieces. It was newly released around October 2023. This is a very unique looking set that I haven't seen anywhere else before. I especially love the silver camper parked in the front of the watch tower. It's a really idyllic looking scene with a nice campsite by the water's edge.
This blog post will take a look at what's included in the set. I will do a separate blog post that will review the building of the set and I'll give you my final thoughts.
I just opened up a sample page frpm the manual so you can see how it looks. The pages are all very crisp and the colors look on point.
In pouch 1, we find an 8 port expansion connector board, a USB plug and a wire with approximately 3 lights attached.
In pouch #2, we get a led light strip, and several led lights on wires.
What's in the Box?
Every Funwhole set comes with a beautiful, sturdy box. All of the contents are well protected and organized.
The Lookout Campground set contains one sticker sheet. Not sure if there will be any printed parts yet.
There are bags of parts numbered 1 through 10, so it looks like there will be 10 corresponding sections in the manual. I also got a bag of hoses (as labelled), a bag marked F that contains pieces for the three minifigures included in the set and also a bag of baseplates. There are three bags labelled number 1. The rest of the numbered bags follow.
I counted a total of 26 bags of parts.
A Quick Peek at the Manual
The manual (or should I call it a book?) is huge! It has over 252 pages, and that's not including the first 3 or 4 pages of introduction and separate detailed instructions on how to use the light kit. (more on that later).
Some really nice artwork on the first pages of the manual.
The Lighting Kit
As per the FunWhole motto, their sets provide Delight Day and Night. That means that each and every FunWhole set comes with an LED light kit. This is how FunWhole differentiates itself from other Lego compatible brick brands.
The seal on the box indicating the set number F9022 looks very official.
Upon cracking open the light kit box, we find some familiar items. If you have built other FunWhole sets you will know you always get a set of quality tweezers and a battery pack. Funny though, I don't see a brick separator packaged here. Maybe it will be in one of the other bags. There are two oranges pouches that contain the lighting components.
In reviewing the box art and manual, we can see that the Funwhole Lookout Campground set consists of a tall watchtower and parked in front of it is a silver camp trailer. There is also a large tree and even an outhouse! From what I can see, the inside of the watchtower is lit up as is the outhouse. There are a couple of shining lanterns and an open fire on the grounds of the campsite. I think this is going to be a really fun build. I think this set will nicely complement the other Funwhole sets such as the Wood Cabin and the Lakeside Lodge.
Here are my reviews for those two sets, if you are interested to know what they are like.
You can find the Campground set on the Funwhole Website or on the FunWhole Amazon store.
