We saw the same thing with Assembly Square and the Death Star. That's why I'm 100% sure we'll see 160€ UCS Snow Speeders in a few months. Ass Square and Bloody Mary are still SAH exclusives here but I guess TLG are now focussed on sustaining turnover so they are churning out Ideas and D2Cs to all and sundry ASAP. It´s going to be hard for them not to post negative growth figures this first semester but you can bet they will put out all the stops and have fingers crossed for some TLJ craziness to help in Q4. A couple of thousand 800 euro MF sales might also help! Edited April 28, 2017 by Val-E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post belljohn Posted May 3, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2017 I just finished the Silent Mary and really loved building it. It was a very satisfying building without the premade hull. Most of the ships using the big hull pieces are so stubby and cookie cutter the same. This ship felt like a UCS Star Wars build with the internal technic frame and partial cladding and a lot less tedious than the Death Star II. This allowed the designers to make a slender tapering ship that seems to have much better sailing ship proportions. Obviously none of the sailing ships are to minifigure scale, but on this one nothing is minifigure accessible except the deck. I think that is ok since is allows the other features to be smaller and more to scale. I love all the gold. I have uploaded a comparison with the Imperial Flagship which is the biggest Lego sailing ship. You can see the Silent Mary is much shorter, especially since so much of its hull is out of the water by comparison, but it is only a few inches shorter. The real questions is whether it can eat the Imperial Flagship. As you can see, I think the Imperial Flagship is little to big a bite. Maybe just a bit off the flank. 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to grab 2 from Toys r us on Newegg with some discounted gift cards I've had for a couple months. Still get TRU base points and don't pay tax. ? If only TRU would accept my reseller certificate I wouldn't go this route. Edited May 3, 2017 by SageFly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRIX23 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Anyone else notice this set is not listed under "Hard to Find" on TRU which typically excludes it from discounts? Without any other sets at the moment to go with a theme discount, I wonder if we will see any other opportunities to discount this set other than rewards or discounted GCs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Migration Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 odds of a better price at some point, without some weird Kmart magic?I wouldn't expect it to get much lower.

I think we'll see this set 25% or more at some point. I don't think there will be much demand for this set at retail after the film is released. It also doesn't help this set isn't a "legit" or "somewhat typical" pirate ship However, I'll take a 15% discount any day of the week to build a nice recent released set if the film flops, we'll see 35% and more off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This movie has been trending very well and it will surprise some people. I think the SM is a very well built pirate ship and as with most ships I'm sure it will do well post retirement.

We have an extremely modest mermaid cove adjacent to our Imperial Flagship vs. Pirate-colored Imperial Flagship. I think this'll look neat when placed against the cove in it's crooked 'broken' configuration, as if it had been run aground due to battle and / or the lure of the mermaid sirens. The only challenge is, as always, finding room hahah. Haven't gone to the trouble to dynamically incorporate it, but found the room (sorry about the bad lighting): 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Saw the POTC film today. Def not a tank Depp's recent films and other blockbuster fiction (looking at you Warner Bros). I would prob rank it the 2nd best in the series. Knightly's Swan character wasn't even needed / missed in the film. Instead, that scene felt forced. 4 out of 5 stars from me. Def surpassed my expectations. The Silent Mary and it's crew were awesome. More interesting than the QAR and Flying Dutchman ships and their crews in my opinion. I like that Lego took a risk with this set and didn't rehash another "for play" Black Pearl. Lego should take more risks like this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
