I am so happy that this beautiful ship became Bricklink set but I believe it should also be available more permanently from Lego because it looks better than 99% of all 18+ sets currently sold by Lego. If it was available on store shelves many people would buy it. It got even better with the updated minifigs which shows how much BDP relies on what other sets are available at the moment.

Let's see how well quickly it sells during Crowdfunding...

A common complaint is the price, so even if it were on shelves, and people wanted it, how many would actually make a purchase?

I believe it would be a bit cheaper if it was mass produced.

Fortuna's set number is 910059 by the way, would be nice to have this added to the title! :steve:
 

With the piece count limit in place and people constantly complaining about prices & value it was extremely challenging to keep the entire model within range of 4000 pieces without losing detail. 

My insistence on increasing the Minifigure count and giving them more weapons, utensils and stowage for that made it even harder.
I am incredibly happy with the result; you're definitely getting as much as I possibly could squeeze into the model.

There's only space for one large pirate-themed ship in the LEGO portfolio and it's already taken by the new Black Pearl. I am incredibly grateful that Fortuna could still get made through BDP! :pir-wub:

The 10365 Black Pearl (Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship) has 1225 less pieces / 8 fewer Minifigures and costs the same as Fortuna; in the US it's actually $30 more.

Nevertheless, the Black Pearl sold out in multiple countries repeatedly, and is currently still out of stock here in Australia. Of course, it's a licensed set which drives up both the price and demand. 
But it's also hardly a perfect set, the shape of the cloth sails and the masts were widely criticised.

I used that opportunity to design improved versions for both (still need to finish, post & promote instructions; I have too much to do right now).

SEK 4,399.90, here in Sweden. RIP my bankaccount, but bankaccount has to live with that. I did count that the price would be somewhere around there.

10365 Black Pearl, is the same price in Sweden.

I wonder, what would be needed, if doing the bottom part of the ship + stand, as in, what is below waterline? Similar to what Black Pearl has. I hope you all understand what I mean, when my brain is too tired to put it into words properly.

Waterline / Full Hull+Stand.

Price here in Canada is $489.99. Its more expensive than the Pearl, but more parts and minifigs, so I accept the price. Absolutely no way I am going to miss out on this ship. If I had the cash, I would get 2, one for the red ciats, one for the blue coats. I like how there is three different flag options, and two different name options. Great job, can't wait til August when it is likely to arrive.

Does anyone know how many stickers are in this set?

There are 24 stickers, 6 for each of the flags (6 redcoat, 6 bluecoat, 6 pirate), 2 for the bow pieces, 2 for the ship's name: 1 Fortuna, 1 Minerva. I don't see where the last 2 are :pir-huzzah1:

There's another 2 (optional) stickers to add a bit of detail to the galley: they go on a 2x4 tile and a 2x2 curved slope. They're not super visible, but I felt they some people might appreciate the extra detail.
