LEGO 72040 Campement Du Capitaine Toad

This set was a gift for my grandsons birthday. As mentioned it was on his wish list. He was super happy and built it in no time.

The LEGO Super Mario Captain Toad’s Camp (72040) is a small but delightful set that captures the charm of the Captain Toad games in brick form. With 159 pieces, it features a cozy campsite, a lava bridge, and fun interactive elements that work with the LEGO Mario, Luigi, or Peach figures. The highlight is the exclusive Captain Toad minifigure, complete with his signature backpack and headlamp, joined by a Goomba and a turnip for extra play value. While some features like the “diamond mining” mechanic feel a bit underwhelming, the set’s creativity, character inclusion, and affordable price make it a great addition for fans looking to expand their Super Mario world.

Easy for beginners and intermediate builders. My daughter is 6 and my son is 10 and they had an easy time building this.

This is a great set if you are building a Mario world, and has great features, but I feel like LEGO could have made it better, one way to fix that is to maybe add a connection piece in between the tent and the bridge with lava.

This small set is great set for Mario fans, and I'm super glad I got it! The Captain Toad figure is just perfect, and the Goomba and Turnip item are great as well. The Interactive details work great, and I'd highly recommend this set for any Nintendo fan!
