Paul cantu Posted November 13, 2008 This is a really good set with many accesories to help build up your pirate collection. It cost 19.99 US. Sorry about the pics, the camera I use isn't the greatest. An interesting amount of extra pieces This is the really cool comic: These are the pieces the set includes.

Siegfried Posted November 14, 2008 Thanks for the pictures. Could you post a picture of that base by itself, top and bottom? What else would you like me to add to make it more of a review? I think people want more opinions, and perhaps a rating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erdbeereis Posted November 14, 2008 Lego12 is working on a full review as well, so don't worry about changing this if you don't want to. Nice looking set! I love the fig with the ripped shorts, and it seems he might have a new head. Quite a few nice leaf pieces as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gogobig Posted November 14, 2008 Is it just me, or it really seems like new lego pirates remind of megabloks sometimes? First the colors are really dark or bright, and that baseplate is just different in my point of view. The minifigs look detailed so thats a good thing. Everything else just doesnt d it for me :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkaForHire Posted November 14, 2008 really? 20 bucks for that? I think the pricing on new castle was way more feasible... that set sucks for that price... maybe 14 bucks... but not 20. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asuka Posted November 14, 2008 Thank you for that interesting little review, Paul cantu! I really like that set... it looks quiet playable to me, the blue boat´s nice, the dark green on the pirate looks great and that Robinson Crusoe MF´s simply superb! The baseplate looks also better that I initially thought and could even become handy for some neat wasteland MOCing... Tatooine, here we go... And that little 'prison' where the sea´s the only kind of back wall... pretty surrealistic, isn´t it..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guss Posted November 14, 2008 thanks for this little review^^ Like asuka, I like that little set, and the baseplate looks better than it looks at first sight, the little comics is cool too and WHOOO you got a lot of extra pieces! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cardinal Brick Posted November 14, 2008 Excellent, thanks for posting pictures of the set so quickly. I'm undecided about the island I think I'll need to have it in my hands before I make a decission but it looks quite good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brickzone Posted November 14, 2008 Thanks for the photos and review. Yeah, this set looks nice. I for one like the 3D baseplate (sure I wouldn't want one in every set), and it is a positive development that it can be attached to studs. Certainly will be useful on top of tan baseplates (I've oodles of those from Western) for sandy/dusty scenes (Beach/Western/Egypt/Desert). I wouldn't want too many, so hopefully there'll only be the occasional set making use of these (and hopefully other colours, e.g. dark bley). I like the torn trousers on the castaway.

Darth_Legois Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) You probable take better pics then me so dont worry mate. Hmm still not too sold on this set, Especially since I still got alot of other stuff to buy. The little prison looks abit bare but still the idea behind the set is cool. Nice review too EDIT: Woohoo! 1,000 Posts Im a Count! Count DL AWAY!

samthelegoman1 Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) It is a new face. I might take more pictures. Judging from the eyes, it looks like a scared head or an angry head... Edited November 15, 2008 by samthelegoman1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matn Posted November 15, 2008 It's a sad face. Thanks for the pictures. I like this set and even the baseplate, it can be attached to a blue baseplate so it looks like sand in an ocean. I really like the figures and the accesoires. But I think 20 euro for this is a bit overpriced, and that's a shame... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
