I think the robot impulse is kind of lame.....I want to see better, bigger MOC's! The robot itself is ugly and are the weapons LEGO?
-
I just find Hernan suspicious. We try and kill him and he pulls out all of these weapons which seems suspicious and he's been Potato Messaging all types of people here and confusing everyone. It would be best if he left.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad people like my reviews! Sadly, those were the only two pirate sets I could get! I might be able to get more sets later on, though. Yeah the end of the telescope does fit on a stud.

I like it! Two new members join the group, yay! I can't wait to see more of your comics!

I think it would be wise to vote off Hernan. Miguels tried to kill him and everyone thinks he's suspicious, so I'm going to Vote: Hernan / stash2sixx Its best for this town. Why is everyone trying to vote off Mustafa? He's been very helpful and he's helped us!

Those were the only sets I got, although I could get more in the future. That baseplate is a new pieces and its lovely! EDIT: Skipper24, I wouldn't think so because the face is sad. blueandwhite, the baseplate can stick on another baseplate. I don't think the technic pins can be used to secure the jail/cage, but the pieces on the sides of the island can fit into the holes allowing it to stay on.

I got a title! It's "Bronze Pirate Lightsaver". Probably because I got my bronze badge and I made two reviews of the pirate sets, so I'm a pirate lightsaver! I think it was Bonaparte, but I could be wrong. Thanks for the title!

Set name: Loot Island Theme: Pirates Set number: 6241 Number of pieces: 142 Minifigs: 3 Release date: 2009 Release price: $19.99 Brickset Bricklink Brickshelf Folder I went to the LEGO Imagination Center Orlando, USA close to my house and they had the new pirate sets which I had to buy! I bought this and the Soldiers Fort. This is my best review so far and I hope I will make better ones in the future! There were plenty of Pirate sets down there, but they didn't have 6252 Shipwreck Hideout (which I was going to get), 8397 Pirate Survival impulse, or 8396 Soldier's Arsenal impulse. So, I decided to get the Soldiers Fort along with this set, so enjoy the review! Box-Front: This is the overall image of set 6241 Loot Island, and it shows the set in action. Box-Back: The back of the box shows all of the accessories, the playability of the set, and 6243 Brickbeards Bounty. Instructions-Front: There is one booklet for this set as it is small, and it shows the entire set. Instructions-Middle: Instructions-Comic: TLC has included Pirate comics in all of the sets, to my knowledge, and they are nicely illustrated with sword fighting, cannons getting fired, and the set itself. Stickers: This set doesn't come with any stickers whatsoever, although it has some printed pieces like the Pirate flag, soldier flag, and a map. Minifigures-Front: The minifigures are what makes this set so great! The soldier has a very detailed torso like the pirates have and the stranded pirate has a really sad expression on his face and ripped pants which are exclusive to this set! The shako is printed and it has improved from the older version. Minifigures-Back: The soldier has a purple/brownish backpack while the stranded pirate has a rope and a buckle on the back like the other pirate. Minifigures-Stranded Pirate without beard: I have removed the beard so the members of EB can see his face. The pirate has ripped pants and a common torso. He also has a sad, ripped beard which makes him look lonely. Animals-Alligator: Here are both alligator designs. On the left, the alligator with the lighter shade is the old one, while the one on the left with a the darker tone is the new design. Accessories: The accessories that come in 6241 Loot Island are: A treasure chest, (with a pink diamond, an aqua diamond, and a couple of coins), two white paddles, 3 swords, a map, a fish, a telescope, and a dark brown pistol. Extra Pieces: The pieces you get leftover aren't as great as in most sets, but it comes with an epaulatte, which comes in all of the sets that contain soldiers. Vehicles-Boat: The boat contains a soldier flag, two white paddles, a rotating dark grey cannon, and cannon balls for the firing cannon. Complete set without minifigures and accessories-Front: The island has a jail/cage that holds the treasure chest and on top of it there is a small roof so the pirates can see any boats that are coming through the telescope and a small tree with a pirate flag on top. The entrance way is a just two jail pieces stacked on top of each other and it can easily come off, and the building has a skeleton head with two yellow diamonds in it and the island has two cannons on the sand, a rock, a dock, (I'll talk about that later), a little fire, and a poorly designed tree. Complete set without minifigures and accessories-Back: On the back you can see the jail/cage secret entrance which is just a big leaf and to access it you need to turn the leaf either way. There is also a small hole....which kind of bothers me a little and I think that TLC could have fixed that problem easily. The Dock: The dock has two horns on the end of it and there is a small cannon. There are wooden planks but they are all messed up to give the impression that it has been there for a long time and it's old. Baseplate: One of the main reasons why this set is so great is that it has this awesome baseplate! Its great to use for island MOC's and it's got to be my favorite baseplate ever! Complete set with minifigures and accessories: This is the entire set which I think looks nice! The soldier shot the cannon causing it to fall and open. The soldier then jumps into the ocean trying to get the treasure while being pursued by an alligator and the pirate is trying to get the soldier! The poor stranded pirate doesn't know what to do! Faults: That is the main fault of this set. The little jail/cage isn't connected to the baseplate so it can easily fall over, but its also good because you can hide the treasure chest down there and use the jail/cage to capture the soldier. 6242 Soldiers Fort and 6241 Loot Island combined: I decided to take a picture of 6242 and 6241 together so you can see what it looks like! Conclusion: This is an amazing set that comes with some great pieces like the baseplate and the soldier boat. It has some flaws, but they don't change my perspective of the set. This set, like most pirate sets, are overpriced because this set is $19.99, but look at the pieces, 142! This set should be $14.99 and if it was, the rating for this set would be higher. Build: 6/10, The build for this set isn't that great. It isn't repetitive, but the build for this set is so fast, it would take you longer to eat cereal! Design: 8/10, The design for this is ok, but the baseplate brings up the rating. Playability: 10/10, You can do many things with this set like capturing the soldier or capturing the pirates, I don't know, just use your imagination to its fullest! Minifigs: 8/10, The minifigs are really cool for this set like the stranded pirate, but the other pirate is common and the soldier is a good addition to your collection. Price: 6/10, The price is really bad for this set! It really should have been $14.99 and if it were, I would've given it a 10/10. Overall Score: 7/10, This is an ok set and I think it has some great minifigures, a great boat, and a great baseplate, which are the main attractions for this set! As mentioned earlier this set should have been cheaper than usual and I recommend that you get this set as soon as you see it!

I was looking over this thread and I was wondering WTF is ihasabucket.com!?! You come up with wierd names..... I'll see if its real, and if its not, its time for an @$$ wooping! Guss, nice title! It suits you well! Skinny Boy its kind of obvious that you want a title. Your pretty much saying: "GIVE ME A TITLE!!!!!". You'll never get a title if you do things like that. I used to do things like that to try and get myself a title and it didn't get me anywhere, so I just gave up, and when its my turn I'll get one. EDIT: Oh shit, its real! Look here: Its real and its ******* hilarious!

female canine..... Anyways I agree that the list is really stupid and its getting us nowhere!
-
I was being tortured by Martinus, that bastard! I will seek my revenge on you..... J/K! Although, I would like it!
-
Happy Birthday! Have a great LEGO-filled day!
-
I protected Joan and Charles two nights in a row....and I wasn't able to protect anybody last night......I was actually going to that persons house and I got dragged to an attic with skeletons and torches.......I still have nightmares of that!
-
Someone did guard you that night at the church.....I know who it was....thats all I'll say for now.
-
Maybe you are doing that because you want to gain our trust.....the witches can convert townsfolk....so maybe you have more witches than there are townfolk, I don't know! It was just a theory....
-
I'm never going to your shop again you damn bastard! I still have scars! I think your informer has been mistaken. I am a soldier who is protecting this town and I am not a witch. I do have a theory's though: 1. Martinus is a witch/heretic and he has been torturing witches and led us to them so then we would gain his trust and after a couple of witches getting burned, he would then start killing innocent townsfolk. 2. Martinus is a townsfolk and he got mistaken and forgot what my role was. I don't know if the first ones true, but I am starting to suspect Martinus...... I'm not a witch.....and I think Cristopher can help me out. Well, can you? I didn't "convert" Joan or Charles, I was protecting them. Alexander was there, so he knows if I "converted" them or not.

Add one for Dr. X. Great trade with some awesome pieces! -
Yes I was tortured......and it was very painful. Martinus you son of a female canine! Do you realize how much that hurt!?! My role was revealed........he found out about me.......but its nothing big really, since I am a noble.
