Best LEGO Pirate theme of all time? A look at the 4 Juniors Pirates!

[PxChris]

Who else has a part of their collection that most folks in the community just looks at and shake their head in bewilderment? 

For me, that absolutely most silliest part of my collection has the be the 4 Juniors Pirates sets of 2004. I love my complete collection of these sets even though they are much maligned by most AFOLs due to their extreme juniorization and the Jack Stone style figures (the figures seem to be the biggest point of contention). I just find them to be fun little sets, and even the figures have a charm to them.

So here's a little look at the complete theme which consists of a total of 10 sets: 6 regular sets, 3 figure packs, and 1 polybag. I'm lucky enough to even have the boxes for most of the sets including sealed boxes for the figure packs and one other.

Here are the three boxed figure packs:

And then finally all of the boxes I have for the series and the instructions:

@PxChris You have to get @Jim to delete the photos at the bottom. They (along with all the other photos in the thread) apparently are uploaded directly to EB instead of being hosted elsewhere as EB says to, and as such are undeletable. It's a known bug and only EB Admins can do it.

Anyway, I had the ship and shipwreck sets at least. (I know I have all the figs) I still use the two map halves for my Adventurers, and I am planning on putting them and a bunch of other LEGO easter eggs in my own history museum MOC at some point.

I have no idea why these minifigure images keep showing up on this post despite repeated attempts to edit the post and delete them!)

The forum is broken and it's ridiculously hard to delete them, even for administrators .

But I think I've managed.
