Mini Camouflaged Outpost

My brother and I owned set 6066, Camouflaged Outpost, as a kid, and we played with it constantly. Considering that it only contained "221 interlocking pieces," according to the box, it offered a whole lot of play value. With a secret entrance, a main entrance covered in greenery, and a branches galore, we could play out whatever scenario we wanted. Not only that, but the whole thing hinged in the middle to become twice as big!

I have tried to recreate the Camouflaged Outpost using 2022 Lego techniques, at a 2:1 scale. Even this tiny model contains 201 pieces. It retains all the features of the original: the secret entrance, the main entrance, the big hinge in the middle, and even a tiny treasure chest. I hope this brings you as much nostalgia and joy as it does for me!
