Nice ship. I've no useful comments on the build but it looks great.

As I understand it, captured ships are already licensed and therefore the base fee for them is considered paid, but you have to pay the 50% (or higher) charge if it takes you above the relevant number of ships. This has been an issue for a while so I'd guess the answer is 'not currently'.

@Phred Sorry to bring this up again, but last weekend I re-licensed the 3A Mirthless Jest after losing it in the MRCA and then having it returned to me by another player. As I understand it, I should only have paid the 88DB for it now being my fourth ship, however the full 263DBs were removed from my account.

Afraid I don't; Trafford Centre is the only one I know of near me.

I don't think the Lego designers expected anyone to be riding the big cats.

Nice use of Beast's head.

@Phred Any chance of some eyes on this?

Quite possible. I also may have just missed it as I'm less interested in that one compared to the other polybags.

Nope. Ninjago.

Correctipn: the Batman 2-pack was the only polybag I don't remember seeing. The Discovery Centre, to the best of my knowledged, doesn't run the promotions, so is a poor indication of that polybag's status.

Found all the Lego Batman Movie polybags for £3 each at the Legoland Discovery Centre, Trafford Centre, along with the rest of this year's new polybags.

The new roof looks much more appropriate to BoBS.

Thank you. The continuation, however, is somewhat out of my hands for the moment.

Thanks.

A great looking ship. I particularly like the skeleton on the bowsprit (I say to no one's surprise).

Thank you. I was trying to go for a less finished look for this location, in keeping with Kwatchi's description of Charlatan Bay's Low Town. They also help hide the giant wall panels making up the northwest corner of the first build. I see what you mean, and yes, it turns out you can get quite a bit out of head angles and positioning, even if I should have made the minifigs look like they're walking in the last picture. As for Harrow, I wanted to up the creepy factor with her.

@Capt Wolf thank you. I actually thought (after posting the images) my minifig posing was a bit static, but it works to tell the story.

What property type is that list supposed to be attached to? Because it came up for Artisan when I licensed one earlier. I just assumed it was a new addition.

@blackdeathgr you should keep a closer eye on them, then

Good work.

Well, it brought a smile to my face,

Firstly, @Mike S, a slightly belated thanks for the Sabre Island map. Secondly, in the interest of showing the Sea Rats are still playing, my builds for January: 1. A Ghost of a Chance 2. The Heretic's Hoard, part 1: The Fate of Oedon Black 3. The Bleak Angel 4. Yharnam's Offer

A stolen ship made escaping the Eslandolan forces quite a simple matter, but where were two highly unusual pirates to go after that? Who would welcome one woman steeped in death, and another who may not be all together alive? Where would no one notice such a pair of monsters? Charlatan Bay it was… In Charlatan Bay there was a tavern known as Flotsam’s Rest. Squeezed between other buildings in Low Town it was a dark, dingy place with no windows. No one was ever sure if the name referred to the clientèle, or the various oddities used to decorate the bar. It was an otherwise usual night until Yharnam and Harrow stalked in, scaring the other patrons out of their way. Secluded in a corner they considered their next objective believing their presence had gone without drawing undue attention. They were wrong, of course, and their discussions were quite rudely interrupted by the approach of two men. “Yes?” Harrow hissed at the men. “Would one of you two rather lovely women by Jack Yharnam, former captain of the… um, unfunny joke?” asked the first interloper. Jacqueline Yharnam looked unimpressed. Snikt. The man noted three things. Firstly, that he had never thought it humanly possible to move as quickly as Harrow did in that moment. Secondly, he had no idea where Harrow had retrieved that knife from. And thirdly, that he was loosing all sensation... As his body hit the floor his companion, more than a little rattled, tried to speak. “We meant no harm, cap’n,” he began, “we was sent by his Holiness the Bishop. His Holiness says he requests your audience, and ’as an offer of trade for you.” Yharnam approached him, slinking forward from her seat. Harrow still lurked nearby, licking the blood from her blade. It rather felt to him like being surrounded by predators. “What is he offering?” Yharnam asked. “Something about yer ship, cap’n,” the messenger said, “his Holiness says some ‘fortuitous circumstances’ have happened, and he can return ’er to you, but he needs sumthin’ from you.” Yharnam smiled a mirthless smile. “Lucky you,” she said, “you get to live through today. I will meet with your priest.” As they left the surviving messenger could only think one thing: That smile terrified him. Continued here. And some clean shots of the scenes: Flotsam's Rest is licensed as a Small Artisan property in Charlatan Bay.

From what I've seen recently, pics of D2C sets are only released a few weeks before the set itself. If the set is out late March then I guess we'll get pics late February unless there's a full leak, And I think the ghost/zombie shark is cool.

Isn't that Poseidon?
