  1. I am sure a lego minifig could go down to the very bottom of the ocean. However, it may crack or break under those pressures. Just my thoughts.
  2. You could say so, but I beg to point out the differences. You don't trade between two people, rather you give away what you don't need, and the receiver puts up what he/she doesn't need up for someone else.
  3. Sometimes I buy legos from garage sales, and find there are assorted megabloks and such mixed along with lego. I try to sort them out to the best of my ability, but the occasional one out of a thousand slips by. Later on I will be posting up a huge block of megablocks if anyo one wants it.
  4. http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?itemID=84278 The pricing is rather ambiguous but otherwise seems somewhat cheap if you sell the vehicles separately at 55 Pounds a piece, sealed boxes at the least are $230usd. Hope that helped.
  5. My offer of Free Lego; Reply with what you need circled in green. Note more is to come -currently inundated from work I can ship anywhere, as long as it isn't prohibitively expensive. Note: I realised one of the brown row boats isn't lego, but if you want it, I'd be happy to give it away.
  6. I will make a post following up with what I don't need and have to offer for free.
  7. Rest in peace. My sympathies go out to the community.
  8. 欢迎社会各界! Welcome to the community, nice brick built hull!
  9. Don't count your chickens before they hatch, Phes. The contest was rather ambiguous and misleading considering the skull told me to check the hint picture when the one he's talking about isn't even released yet. Doesn't necessarily mean I am ungrateful or ingrate, but frustrated.
  10. Nicely done. Interesting to see Spanish red coats.
  11. That roughly equates to $7.00 USD each. (6.85 to be precise) That's rather expensive for Americans, but I have heard lego prices in Europe is marked up. Amazing to see you acquired so many Spartans, good luck selling!
  12. Good MOC. Quite extreme if a person kills someone over water. It's not like they are in a desert, but heh, there is plenty of water it seems in the MOC to quench a whole army.
  13. Don't fret about it. Just seems everyone's first MOC ends up not exactly perfect when submitted. (Happened to me) You can reedit your first post by clicking on the edit button, so it doesn't confuse people when they see the thread. Welcome to the community, and good MOC.
  14. Hrmm. Are you saying skeletons were half the men they were? I feel the same with you as well!
  15. After closer inspection, it did indeed reveal a few bricks were megablox. Sorry about that, in my haste I often don't sort them out. My bricks all reside in a big bin which has some garage sale bricks inside indeed. Hilariously enough, in a picture I used when I thought I used legos turned out to be a megablock. My condolences to all.
  16. Yes, I lament upon an inspection of the heavily oxidized blocks, there were blocks without the lego trademark on them What an embarrassing first MOC.
  17. Please do post the comics away. It would be somewhat equivalent of the Odyssey for those interested in pirate Lego. Much thanks and good luck!
  18. Here you are. Just need to put the sails back in. http://img202.imageshack.us/i/shipvr.jpg/
  19. Ooh. The light from the chest makes it look perfidious. I may just emulate something similar to this.
  20. Yes indeed. Wish I had a time machine to go back then and stock up.
  21. I think his photoshop background is rather appropriate, it is neat, clean, and concise.
  22. First day of the New Year! Hopefully many brick and happiness to come!
  23. I'll make a Paris during the Napoleonic wars. Funny remark about bluecoats, touche! Estimated cost of all my projects would be well over $2,000 USD but I don't mind a bit. It's a terrific investment, lego never loses value and only goes up- that is, if it is in good condition.
  24. Greetings to the Classic Pirates community! I have had my eye on this forum for a few months and recently joined. Posted below are pictures of my small and humble lego collection of bluecoats. (I also have a plethora of redcoats as well, but I have a predilection for bluecoats. ~Don't take this personal to all the redcoats fans.) Now I present you the photos of a fort and ship the bluecoats currently reside in. The fort the bluecoats currently reside in- you could say it is a WIP that is on an undetermined hold- brick shortage. Top view The moat A bird's eye view Some Troops Group Photo The ship Currently, stockpiles consist of: 30 Bluecoats 22 Redcoats 1 Ship (Modified Lego Brickbeard's bounty) 17 Cannons 4 Horses Current projects: Currently finishing another fort/outpost, of behemoth proportions Trying to construct a frigate based off of captaingreehair's guide Ambitions/aspirations: To acquire an army of bluecoats to rival something similar to Dirk72, my shopping list is to amount to 200 bluecoats at very least. http://www.classic-pirates.com/mocs/armies/dirk72s-imperial-army-moc-dirk72.html Build a grandiose flagship consisting of 60 cannons (3 gun decks per side, 10 cannons per deck) Build a lego version of Paris, France in the late 1700s time period.(Napoleon era... I have a pool [snooker table] to acquiesce this endeavor.) Film a lego pirates film of superlative quality consisting of 20ish minutes at the very least. (720p at very least- yes, I have the affinity of experiencing headache inducing, tear jerking, camera shaking, stop motion jerking videos of lego.) Hobbies include: Exotic cars Firearms Lego Saxophone Flying Airplanes Skiing Misc. A lot of people ask me,"Why Lego?". Well, to be honest, that's a good question. I always enjoyed playing lego as a child, and the habit never really died down, the contrary being it proliferated. I just like to build cities and armies etc. It's as close as owning a city and an army in real life without being a dictator or emperor While Legos are expensive, it is a hell of alot less expensive as firearm and ammunition, skiing,boating or flying. I hope the community enjoys this contribution to the forum, I hope to share the same joys and experiences as the rest of you guys! My MSN -feel free to add me: torpid_energy@live.com
  25. Looking nice! Just curious though, what prompted you to make the muskets black instead of brown?
