Does anyone have a photo of the purple marching band torso with full sized legs, epaulettes, and the printed shako?

That sail is so perfect!

I would be more interested in a less expensive play set. The price plus the fact that it's just a display model kinda kills it for me. If it was more like the new barracuda with an actual interior I would have been more into it.

I could not find any coral colors parts but here is some color comparisons. I think it is reddish orange as well.

I have never seen them on pab. But if you have a lego store near you they usually let you get 9 pieces of whatever you want. So you don't need to get a full figure you could just get 9 torsos.

The bandage piece makes for a decent bandana. I got this one from 60459.

I used these files recently to print sails with success. They are scans from 10210 traced over in illustrator as a pure black and white image so that I could get best results from a basic laser printer. I don’t know if they would work with an inkjet printer as I have not tried that but if you set it to black and white mode that might do the trick. For scaling I opened each image in pages and just did test prints at different sizes until I got what I needed. Here is a google drive link, if there is a better way to share files on this forum please let me know how and I will update this. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HP3mfuD6Iw1ELpLyGG_vVczk9dEx57u9

Great work! I love how the aged walls of the fort look.

I think the new banner is a great start so far! I would love to see my favorite set 10210 on there to represent Pirates 2009. Any maybe we could have one modern set as well; like the creator pirate set, barracuda bay, or the new Eldorado?

I like her a lot! The gold bling really says this person is in a position of authority.(at a glance she could even be the captain!) I might get multiples to get a few extra cockatoo, but with such an extravagant outfit I’m not sure if multiple figures would fit into one crew.

Yes, I was surprised to see the water was made from teal bricks. Overall it is a nice little build and I like the printed gold plaque. The box is a generic yellow box and the instructions show through a cutout to make the picture on the front. If one were to spend their vip points on a discount instead of this set I think it would be about $18USD. Pirate ship gift with purchase by Captian Bubbles, on Flickr

Since many classic sets used lego pieces still available today, I wondered if there were any classic pirates sets that I could build using brand-new pieces from pick-a-brick. Obviously the classic colors and figures are no longer around, but I tried my hand at recreating these three smaller classic sets using only parts available on pick a brick service. Pirate Lookout: The only part I had to substitute for this one was the old style flag for the new style. Price to buy from lego is $8.17. Pirate Lookout by Captian Bubbles, on Flickr Shipwrecked Pirate: For this one I had to change the oar color from red to brown. Price to buy from lego is $6.17 Shipwrecked pirate by Captian Bubbles, on Flickr Smugglers Shanty: This one needed the most changes. The 6x12 plate got swapped for a 6x10, the old style coins swapped for printed tiles, and the boat/oars changed colors. Price to buy from lego is $19.16 smugglers shanty by Captian Bubbles, on Flickr An interesting note is that while the regular bricks and plates are more expensive than bricklink, mini figures and accessories are less expensive. For Shipwrecked Pirate the flag piece is a 1/3rd of the entire price! If one wanted to explore this route it might be advantageous to split things up between the two services.

Huzzah! I had just enough points to get one

Looks great! Did you make the flag yourself?

That mini Barracuda looks pretty rad!
