lomis Posted March 5, 2015 Why are the minifigures so angry? Even the good guys aren't happy. https://www.flickr.c...ey/16485209029/ I think they're just the cranky ones. I see more smiles than not among the 2015 pirates as well as the bluecoats: http://www.lego.com/en-us/pirates/characters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sigolf Brimabane Posted March 5, 2015 Is there anyone who knows if and when the new Lego Pirates sets will hit the Nordic countries (Sweden for me)? I really want to buy them but the only way to do it for the moment are either through amazon uk or Lego S@H, both who tends to be more expensive than the store where I am usually buying my Lego sets. Tja! I ordered all the sets from a bricklink store located in the Netherlands. All in all it was a few hundralappar cheaper than both amazon and S@H. I have also been wondering when they come out here, but it seems that they either won't come at all or they will be released in the summer or autumn. They don't have the sets in the current Lego catalogue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Pirate Man Posted March 6, 2015 I've seen it mentioned a lot on here, but I have not seen a full description, so I'm just going to ask, what is S@H? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brickpreviews Posted March 6, 2015 Got my first pirate set today and did a review (Shipwreck Defense). I think I picked a bad set to start though as it is very pricey and the build isn't that great.

jodawill Posted March 6, 2015 Why are you people getting worked up over there facial expressions? I'm not worked up about it. I was just commenting on it because it's really weird. 20 years ago, even the pirates were smiling. Now a lot of the good guys are unhappy too. It's weird.

I too would like to know this, but have been unable to find out so far. I find it extremely weird that the theme is out in all countries *except* the Nordic ones... why? And does it mean that we'll never see it, or does it merely mean that it's postponed untill August? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulp Detective Posted March 6, 2015 Personally I would prefer a variety of new face prints and this is why those sets frustate me so much.The lack of new face prints is really lazy from Legos part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can find pirates at Amazon.fr and Amazon.co.uk but not on Amazon.de. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted March 7, 2015 Regarding amazon.de: It seems that the lego stores in Germany are selling the sets already in March and that other vendors will only have them from April onwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hive Posted March 7, 2015 Thankfully, at least the Juniors set can be found in Denmark - so I got that one today. And I must say, it's pretty darn good for a Juniors set. Good, unique parts selection: a new shark, new map, uniquely printed white plate and hard-to-find black treasure chest - not to mention the unique figure as well. Fantastic! I was surprised to see that the shark had significantly different eyes than those on the box, but I don't mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commissioner Gordon Posted March 8, 2015 just bought Treasure Island and Soldiers Outpost, both solid 20 dollar sets. all the minifigs were great but i wish the blue-coats torsos were a bit more diverse. the parts selection was also great, between the two sets you get a kraken, a crocodile, a parrot and crab, 5 brown barrels, two bottles, a map, two cannons and housings, a flag for the pirates and blue-coats, a beautiful rowboat in blue, and multiple cutlasses, muskets and pistols. overall i think i like treasure island better but either one is a great buy for pirates fans.

knight_40k Posted March 8, 2015 The only set I want from this series is The Brick Bounty but I'm waiting another week until double VIP points. The wait is killing me but I received my B&P order of extra blue coats and some pirates that don't come with the set. I'm also going to be customizing the heads of my extra troops because there seems to be a lot of repetitive faces among the line and I would like them to be more diverse. Here's a taste of whats to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm also going to be customizing the heads of my extra troops because there seems to be a lot of repetitive faces among the line and I would like them to be more diverse. What is B&P and how can I get more of those flags? D: I'd like to get some of the parts without necessarily having to buy the sets multiple times. They're not yet available in Sweden, they're expensive, I'd get multiple of the governor and the governor's daughter... But I'd like at least one more flag, maybe more of the governor's hat etc. Edit: Ah... I found it. It's quite expensive. Maybe it would be better to just buy another copy of the set then.

SkaForHire Posted March 9, 2015 I didn't realize Lego was doing this now, how long have they had Bricks and Pieces? I have used the replace a missing piece option in the past, but did not know they had something separate from Pick a Brick to buy pieces. It seems to me that this is a cheaper alternative to build an army of blue coats... Especially if you have a bunch of unused heads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chofus Posted March 9, 2015 How can i buy from B&P?? When i enter site there is options (step 2) for: My set has missing piece, My new set has broken pieces and A piece broke while building. I can only add pieces but i dont see anywhere prices and how to buy. (I am from Croatia and maybe this is unavilable for me). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would change the region to another country and try again. If you than find it, change region again and you see if it is available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
