There's no such thing as a LEGO exclusive set ;-) No doubt the usual suspects like TRU, Smyths & JL will have it in stock soon enough. I now hate it more than I did a few days ago, what an utter abortion of a set! The "Bellend of Billund" new CEO needs a slap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRIX23 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Do we have any indications at this point as to if there will be additional sets for this movie? In particular I was REALLY hoping to get an intact ship as my interest in LEGO didn't come until well after prices sky rocketed on QAR and BP. Contemplating purchasing a used Black Pearl, but prices are high (thank you supply/demand) and would be a bad decision if a new intact ship were on the horizon. If there is a topic discussing the upcoming movie where this question is more appropriate please direct me as I could not locate it. Thanks!

John82 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Strange how that Ghost Shark hasn't been pictured along with the set yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halfrig Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 This set is expected at Lego stores and website only on Apr 1 according to the April calendar. It is noted more sets available, but on the back page which I have not found yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilrock Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 What's really odd is the lack of exclusive lego sets this year. In a way it's a good thing, as some of us felt it was needed for them to cut back on the amount of sets, and instead deliver more interesting and cooler sets, and I think this fits the bill in an odd way. But, I only count this, the Assembly Square, the Snowspeeder, and possibly 2 more UCS Star Wars sets later this year. Am I missing any? Compared to last year, this year is pretty darn light on the big big boxes.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're non-exclusive, we can then wait for the inevitable retailer discounts. Since LEGO have seemed to stop making true exclusives, expect to see these piled up everywhere soon.

But, I got to admit, I have no interest as even a builder/collector for those things. Minifigures yes... Brickheadz -- pass. To me they are just a legoized variation of the funko pop craze, which I see as a giant fast fading fad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waddamon Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 No, I'm done. To tie it all in, I dislike the skeleton thing called a ship. I'll have exactly zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauro23 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Will be there more PotC sets or not? In case, yes, we should rapidly buy up the old PotC line... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John82 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 There is a rumour that there will be one more movie after this (Michelle Keegan is rumoured to be getting a part) suggesting this storyline spans across 2 movies like POTC 2&3. That surely will be the perfect time for Lego do to the Flying Dutchman, as I guess it will only make 1 appearance in the current movie at the very end.

Sandwraith Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) Man the box really doesn't make the ship look all that flattering. And what's with the falling over mast? maybe it has a movie tie-in, but it certainly takes away from the look of the ship for promotional purposes. The bent bow also doesn't really show all that well. Anyways just nitpicking; i already know i'll be getting this and adding to the fleet, i think it will look great next to the other POTC ships. Getting 2 zombie sharks is just icing on the cake for me! Edit: Mast falling over thing just made sense to me; with the bow bent the front mast would probably be very close if not touching the middle one. Sooo knock it over and hope it looks good for box artwork i guess? Edited March 4, 2017 by Sandwraith 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inversion Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Those zombie sharks will be at least $30 each. Those are just too good to pass up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I'm sure Lego will find a way to tank the price on those sharks, probably put them in a TRU poly or something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I'm just hoping that a "complete" ship will be released soon as I missed out on the BP and QAR during the first waves. I've tried to like this "skeleton" of a ship and it still disgusts me how LEGO came out with something so disappointing. Therefore, I'll not be losing money on this.

It's impossible to lose money when you aren't buying anymore. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You couldn't be more wrong as I still have a lot of sets to sell and some were bought at RRP so I can still lose money and lots of it! I believe that I will lose at least £1000 when I come to sell my Tower Bridges and T1 Camper Vans as I can't store them for much longer. Some of you seem to have it in your head that no buying means no selling. What am I supposed to do with the several hundred sets I already have, shove them up my arse? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
