The second set from this Friends subtheme this week!
Trying to keep a monkey in the sidecar while riding a motorcycle by yourself is either going to end tragically, or hilariously.
That orangutan's lucky to be alive after encountering a landslide. That's rough stuff.
But also, orangutan's can be dangerous in their own right, so it might be Emma in more need of First Aid by the end of the day.

You say that like it can't be both. Tragicomedy is a thing.
Got a remake with 76459.
How have all these jungle animals been getting by, for thousands of years, just hanging out in the jungle, without the Friends characters showing up periodically to rescue them from various problems?
This is so oddly nostalgic. I remember my sister getting this set, and I somehow still have it. I’ve always loved the mushroom print, and I wish it was used more. Also, fun little play feature to “kill the monkey”

Obvious solution, let the monkey drive
Indiana Jane and the Temple of Medical Assistance
I remember I was so excited for Oranguran, and we get recolor of a chimp.
I am still waiting for Orangs...
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking, what's the best mode of transportation in a jungle: motorbike with open sidecart.
I waited so long for Hagrid's motorbike, and it already existed?!

Sidecar's on the wrong side. Or rather, it's on the right side.
Great set. I had fun reimagining this one into the adventurers theme for an instagram post last year

I wonder if it was my constant viewing of the set page that put in in the sights of Huwbot? Or are the selections truly random? (ie do user views boost certain page stats?)
Like with the jungle falls resque, an excellent affordable location based adventure set with nice features, good playability and good use of parts budget and space inside the terrain.
Just great stuff. Again, reminds me a bit of Elves minus the sidecar.

Definitely not an orangutan. Rebrickable has it listed as a monkey, but I checked the original CMF part and it has no molded tail. The design looks like a chimpanzee.
I looked at more images today and learned the back wall is actually a sliding door. That's quite cool! I wonder why there is a secretvdoor in there...?
If this image is to be believed, there's no way that Friends fig can control that motorcycle.

Nonsense. I had a touring bike as a teen, and I used to rest my forearms on the handlebars and steer that way.
