Dreamweb Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 One, or two if you count the Harry Potter ship hull (same as the 4+ Pirates, just with different colours). So far... Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted February 10, 2023 Governor Posted February 10, 2023 1 hour ago, Dreamweb said: One, or two So not a huge number of ships using that hull then? Quote
Dreamweb Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Not a huge number, but that's because the hull is really wide and only suitable for really big ships. The 4+ set uses only 1 middle section, but because of the width, 2 or 3 of them are more suitable due to proportion. And this makes the hull really huge, with a lot of bricks necessary to fill it. It's really hard to build thips like these every month. Quote
_R_R_ Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) There's a new brick built Captain Brickbeard coming this year, when I said "any" pirate set I didn't mean this. Edited February 12, 2023 by _R_R_ Quote
PxChris Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 The leak is actually showing it to be a very 1989 Captain Red Beard build. And exclusive to the LEGO House which makes me pissed!! Quote
Yperio_Bricks Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 Oh wow, it looks much better than i had initially thought when i heared about the buildable figure. Quote
Yperio_Bricks Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Saw some reviews lately about Mould King's Black Pearl and Bluebrixx' modular imperial islands. Maybe one day Lego feels the need to counter these... Fingers crossed. Quote

Maybe one day Lego feels the need to counter these... Fingers crossed. If there's a chance they'll release a new Pearl it's this year since Curse of The Black Pearl will have it's 20th anniversary in September but given there's not a single rumour or leak about a possible PoTC revival I don't think it'll happen, after all this is the same company that ended the PoTC line with 4184 and then never made the Flying Dutchman... As far as classic Pirates I also don't see anything happening in the near future our best hope is another pirate Ideas set being picked as the winner but it probably won't happen for a while since Barracuda Bay was retired a little over a year ago. To be honest I'm still a bit shocked they won't even be doing Captain's Hook ship or Skull Rock island or even a smaller set with some mermaids for Peter Pan given the other sets we're getting for Disney's 100th, the fact we're only getting a new tiny sail piece and that there's a thread dedicated to it is hilariously sad. But hope is the last one to die so I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed that at least next year we get something new. Quote

It's worse than that! There's an entire blog post about it:https://www.classic-pirates.com/news/newupcoming/official-new-lego-sail-2023 Times are tough! Quote
Classic_Spaceman Posted March 1, 2023 Posted March 1, 2023 From @lego_insider_news on Instagram: 10320 - [Vault D2C] - $214.99, 2509 Pieces, 18+ / July release / Based on the Pirates theme Thoughts? I am predicting either a new BSB or Eldorado Fortress (leaning towards the latter, since the target audience for this set likely already has the PoBB, and an Eldorado Fortress remake would provide a good rival base). Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted March 1, 2023 Governor Posted March 1, 2023 Heads up! We now have a topic for the rumoured 10320 - [Vault D2C] set so please continue the discussion relating to that rumour in that topic. Quote
kuzyabricks Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 Are there any hull pieces I could get off PAB? I looked for the ones from the Boswer set but didn't find any :(. Any color would do Quote

Such a shame I didn't order all those hull,mast, sails off of PAB when PoBB was around DX. I couldn't find any either. Some of the pieces have weird names on Pab I'm hoping that's the case for the hulls.... Quote
PxChris Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 For search terms on PAB you'll want to use "ship" and "stem". But there are currently none of the hull pieces available on there. Quote

LegoAUT Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 Hull pieces can often times be acquired relatively cheap from BL though. Quote

Roebuck Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 New GWP that may have some useful parts even if it is not a proper Pirate set: Pirate playgroundhttps://www.promobricks.de/lego-gwps-april-2023/160086/ Quote

More of the "Let's have pirate themed sets but not the type LEGO Pirates fans actually want" At least this has classic style palm leaves, doesn't look like a classic style trunk though. Quote

With a mouth, teeth, etc. Well, now that the leaks are out, it turns out I was more or less right about 71469 Nightmare Shark Ship. And it's actually NIGHTmare, not KNIGHTmare. While it's not a typical Pirate ship, I might actually consider getting it. Quote
