    It's printed. Lego has thankfully printed a 1x4 brick for this wave and used it in many different sets.
  2. Jiesdeo
    Not at all. Just fun to see you were on 999 posts.

    6257 was one of my first Pirates sets (can't remember if this or Sabre Island was the first) so it holds a special place in my heart.

    Soon promoted to Count I see.

    The only hope would be something for Lego's 90th anniversary, but even that I see as a slim chance.
  6. Jiesdeo
    Yeah same for me. And in the 2015 wave they used gems/jewels, but it's not Pirates for me without some doubloons.
  7. Jiesdeo
    Sounds fun! Also, they report a new corn on the cob-piece in the truck set.
  8. Jiesdeo
    Yeah perhaps. Bricklink says "Years released: 2010 - 2019", but it's hard for us to know exactly when and how it was available. It doesn't surprise me though, since Lego seemed to cheap out on that wave a lot. I remember as a kid, the gold coins were one of the big appeals with Pirates for me personally. Among a lot of other things of course.

    They were included in these sets. You can also buy them on Bricklink. ETA: It's really strange that these seems to have been in production during the 2015 wave of Pirates, but were not included in any sets from that wave. But Lego didn't put that much effort into that wave anyhow...

    What Brickset calls "Gold Ink" seems to be used for both Bricklinks "Chrome Gold" and "Metallic Gold" in some cases. The coin bag above is only available in Bricklinks "Chrome Gold", but is registered as being "Gold Ink" by Brickset. I have never seen metallic gold/gold ink coins, only pearl gold/warm gold as an alternative. Brickset does have an equivalent for "Chrome Gold": "Metalized Gold" (just to make thing more confusing), but it's not used for the ingots as I can see even though there are sets that contains chrome gold ingots. That being said it's more logical that the ingots are (Bricklinks) metallic gold since that it what we have been getting lately.

    It's the same colour, but without the center sprue, and different values. They're usually in a bag together with one ingot like this:

    As I understand "Gold Ink" is the same as Bricklinks "Chrome Gold" so it's nice to get some shiny, shiny ingots. But it's strange because the chrome gold ingots usually come in a pack together with four gold coins: https://brickset.com/parts/6052266/coins-no-1100

    Not OP, but some chrome gold coins!

    I would personally like a set with some civilians, so a pub (that is also visited by pirates) could be one option. Or an updated version of 6277 Imperial Trading Post.
  16. Jiesdeo
    This has probably been asked before, but I'm new, so here goes: what sets would your dream pirate wave consist of?
  17. Jiesdeo
    I would definitely like to see more than one building per year. They need to bring back the family houses as well.
  18. Jiesdeo
    Does anyone know if 40499 Santa's Sleigh was only for Christmas 2021 or if it will be back again? I'd like to buy one as a gift.
  19. Jiesdeo
    I would assume it uses a lot of large pieces regardless if it's a 4+ or 6+. The barn-part for the 7637 Farm set uses somewhere around 120-125 pieces. But on top of that there's probably some sort of vehicle that will take up a lot of pieces (especially if it's 6+, not that many if it's 4+).
  20. Jiesdeo
    I saw someone claiming it was a 4+ set. I think it was Ashnflash. Don't know where he got that information, but it's logical given the low part count. EDIT: Sorry, saw that someone already replied this.
  21. Jiesdeo
    I'm crossing my fingers, but I won't get my hopes up.

    I live in the south of Sweden, and have been around at a lot of different toy stores here, and it's been unavailable for months. It's been out of stock on Lego.com for Sweden since August. I suppose the demand has been higher in here than elsewhere. A friend talked to a store clerk and asked about it and that toy store/chain had placed an order during autumn for 70 more Barracuda Bay, but apparently to no avail. That being said, I already have 3 of it, but a part of me wanted a 4th before it was retired. Lots of good parts.
  23. Jiesdeo
    That's true, haven't thought about that. Maybe there will be a minifigure from Medieval Market Village together with a goat.
  24. Jiesdeo
    Well there haven't been a new people pack since 2019, so they might have abandoned that concept and replaced it with this.
  25. Jiesdeo
    I would also prefer a redesign. Being a Pirates and Castle fan as a kid those would be most interesting for me personally. If I could choose I think I would like to have a Crusader and Forestman for Castle and a Bluecoat soldier or Governor Broadside, and King Kahuka for Pirates. Redbeard already got a good update in Pirates of Barracuda Bay and the Black Falcons have been revived for the Medieval Blacksmith and Castle.
