Red Bricks

Glad you liked it, Thanks for the advice, I have spaced it all out now

I am sorry for putting up 3 of the same stories, but my computer has been a bit unreliable lately, So if you did want to comment then please do so in this one

We set our scene in the Caribbean sea. Where the former Pirate, now Privateer, Hector Barbossa assumed power over several Navy Ships to lead an attack on Brickbeard’s forces. ‘Ready those guns!’ Yelled Barbossa as his Flagship engaged Brickbeard’s Bounty. ‘You pale skins don’t stand a chance against us classics!’ Screamed Brickbeard. As the ships lined with each other, Barbossa’s second in command, The notorious Jack Sparrow was so scared that he even turned his head into his screaming face!. As both ships peppered cannon fire at each other, a vicious sword duel broke out between the two leaders. ‘Your legs are outdated!’ Taunted Brickbeard ‘My legs are identical to yours you stud head!’ Barbossa retaliated. As the battle raged, Jack was able to sneak aboard the enemy ship in an attempt to steal some booty, Only to find Yoda and Dobby reading the Harry Potter series in the Cabin….. He backed away… In a desperate act. Brickbeard opened his new Lego Set, None other than the Pirate’s Chess Set. Barbossa was now outnumbered; with so few entries in his new theme, his crew could not contest with the size and number of the sets at Brick Beard's command. ‘I only came here because the cake shop told me I was too ugly’ Cried the Zombie. ‘I’m only here because I’m too drunk to do otherwise’ Jack added. All of a sudden, Several Mermaids appeared from the depths. Every body stared at their beauty, Until they began to sing hits from the……..Nineties! ‘NOOOOO!’ The whole crew yelled. Hope you enjoyed the story, And remember, Yellow Minifigures are at no disadvantage to the flesh!

Impressive!

Good technique for making authentic wood!

I think it is the best Lego game yet, But it only took me a few days to get most of it complete, I love building up the Minikit ships. Nice review

I miss Orient Expedition & Knight's Kingdom

I'm not that sure how big I want it. That's the good thing about LEGO, You don't you until you get there

So many! I was thinking perhaps thinking this one for a fort: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=44510pb03

Does anyone know where to find a baseplate that is raised in places, then have dips in the middle, To make a fort on. Links or searches welcome

That Officer's coat Nice review

I like how you have put the chef hat on Spongebob, never thought of that before

-Spoiler- The minifigure is Harry in Tuxedo (Yule Ball)

I don't think they are, The fact that it is new and licenced theme sort of makes up for it...

I would use Red as British and Blue as French

I would use this for the HMS Interceptor from POTC, Or... -Movie Spoiler- The HMS Providence (Barbossa's New Ship)

Update: I have ordered some brown monopods and I will clip them onto a Harry potter wand so it will be held backwards so the remains of the stick that won't touch the floor will act as an arm support. Will post some Pictures when done

Hehe, Nice tour

I was only saying what I did with the set... Don't cry? I was only saying what I did with the set... Don't cry?

I know but I have came up with all designs that I've thought of are mostly customs and I had to think up about 15 prototypes in my head without actually being able to touch it. I've bought the monopods from eBay and will either connect it to a Harry Potter Wand or a Viking Axe Handle Bar.

Good old me has spent all night looking and I think I just found it! Gack! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LEGO-DARKBLUISH-GREY-Minifig-Accessory-Sextant-30154-/390318283850?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item5ae0c85c4a#ht_1839wt_929 Actually, Not big enough

I think that monopod will do the job I was looking around brickarms and I think that the monopod and bat clipped together might look good? http://www.brickarms.com/Images2/products/bat_Brown_S.gif & http://www.brickarms.com/Images2/products/Monopod_Black_S.gif

That actually looks quite effective, I'll keep that in mind, Thanks That back part of the stick is a Harry Potter wand isn't it?

Hi, Not sure whether this should be in general discussion forum, But it seemed relevant to Pirates. I have just purchased the new Lego Barbossa as Privateer, and it doesn't have his crutch, if you have the Lego Pirates of the Caribbean The Video Game, the crutch on there looks very good, but can you get that or anything that looks like the movie one from anywhere, custom sites or official sets? By the way, I've tried the Basic bar (Harry potter wand) and it doesn't really look that good. Thanks again
