As ambassador of Classic-Pirates.com I took the initiative some time ago to collect all your requests for future LEGO Pirate parts. These requests have now been bundled into one presentation which is send to LEGO via the ambassador program.

My special thanks to the wonderful team behind Classic-Pirates.com which helped making this presentation.

You can download the presentation here.

Nice presentation! Especially the wig, the globe and the rum bottle seem like a very good idea to me.
Do you have any idea how soon we can espect some of these things in real sets? Maybe in the new line already?

I like the swivel gun and the small treasure chest.
I hope TLG will use these ideas.

I don't know if and when we'll see parts on our wish list appear in real sets. But since this presentation is officially handed over to LEGO via the ambassador program it will reach the right people. Earlier in my term as ambassador we already delivered a paper with a summary of our Pirate set desires and we will keep pushing the idea's of your members (that's you!) to LEGO.

Very good presentatiom, I could use most if not all of these pieces.

I especially like the 2 x 2 chest.

I'm really hoping TLG will release another pirate line or build on the "suspended" 2009 line.

Again, superb work on the presentation :pir-classic:

I love these ideas. The small chest, accessories, 1X1 with studs on both ends (how did you know I wanted that?!) are especially awesome! Although, you can still get brown chests!

Outstanding presentation gentlemen! I don't think there is a single suggestion on that list that I wouldn't absolutely love to see Lego produce. It looks great and is extremely easy to follow. Great work.

I doubt we'll see a Rum Bottle made by TLG...or anything related to alcohol for that matter. Another good reason why I don't work for them.

Great Presentation! :pir-classic:

I wish they would make a bayonet and colored hats; and I hope they bring back the buildable trees and compasses. I was just wondering, how do you know they will actually look at this presentation, and not just throw it away?

Hey Armothe, maybe you could design some of the parts requested inside the presentation? Is there any particular part you would consider doing?

I just bought the Crystal Skull temple of Indiana Jones which contains a Conquistador helmet. It's still around and no need to ask for bringing it back :pir-wink:

Last week I was in Billund and presented this for several LEGO employees (incl. Senior Director of Community Development and members of his team, senior LEGO designers, etc.), so I can confirm hey saw the presentation!

Maybe http://bricks.argz.com/part/3046a but then a 3 x 3 version would be handy also?!
