Ahoy landlubbers! Here is my remake of one of the classic LEGO Pirates sets.
I wanted to remake the 6277 Imperial Trading Post for this contest, but because of me not having as much LEGO bricks as I would have liked, I ran out of pieces at the first building. Then I went to a LEGO museum with my dad and there was a LEGO Pirates exposition! I got a whole lot of inspiration and there was the first time I saw this set: number 6263, the “Imperial Outpost”. I loved it immediately and when I got home, I started building.
The original LEGO set has some play features I wanted to keep in my remake of it, think of the secret storage in the floor and the function to break out of the prison. But I also wanted to put some more play features in it, like the rock with the treasure in it and the secret space under the bed in the prison, where imprisoned pirates can store weapons.
The original set contained 4 minifigures (2 Imperial soldiers, 1 Imperial admiral and 1 pirate) and one rowboat, but I added one more pirate and a raft.
If you have any questions about my remake, ask them and I will try to answer them all!
