Okay, everybody knows about the 2013 Toy Fair, but have you noticed this LEGO Friends set : it's about a cruiser and the hull is similar to every pirate ship since the famous Imperial Flagship. The picture comes from Smashing Bricks.

Do you also remember LEGO 6280 Armada Flagship ?

The white hull is nice. I hope that part in the front isn't printed, though.

Hmmm is it 12 studs like the Armada ship or is it 16 studs in width? It looks like 14. Can this be possible or am I unable to count? :grin:

It is 16 studs wide, and I must say I love this so much! I really hope it doesnt comes with the printing at the sides of the hull.

Finally, a proper armada flagship is actually possible to build!
Glory days have left behind...

I looked carefully and I can say they are stickers, no printings, because of the shadow on the left

If the price isn't too high I'll just buy the complete set, I'll just need to justify buying such girly set in a shop :grin: .
That's probably a sticker on the bow, I don't think they would print on a curved part like that.
Yuck, those dolphins look terrible :sick: .

Why? You wear a skirt under your face after all. :tongue:
Why do you need TLC to make sets for you, all you really need is parts...be creative!

Now that look like it will be possible to make white hulls in the future. While that's certainly interesting, I'm still fine with black.
