NIevo Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Heck yeah! Pirates were always one of my favorite themes. Quote

TheOrcKing Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Great design. Hopefully in the end it is not fated to receive "the black spot". 1 Quote
nolan808 Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 This would look really nice next to my destiny's bounty. I may actually buy something to build on release finally. Quote
Migration Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 This would look really nice next to my destiny's bounty. I may actually buy something to build on release finally.The last dozen or so sets I’ve purchased on release day with the intention of cutting the seals and building are either still sitting in my “build” pile or saw a price spike just after release and fell prey to my black QFLL heart. 2 Quote

I've accepted the fact I will be building my LEGO world as my retirement...the only question is how will I get 10 years of stockpiled LEGO sets to Hawaii 1 Quote
waddamon Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 This is a great set. I think at the first 20 to 30% discount I'll buy 10 or 15. Can't go wrong. Quote

waddamon Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 No, that usually takes quite a while for a discount like that on a big ideas set, it also doesn't happen often. Which I found out by waiting too long on the fishing store. I also have lots of storage room. 1 Quote

TANV Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I like it, just because I want a grand ship to have. Quote
Phil B Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I foresee a nice uptick in the sales of my Pirates Chess Set minifigures on BL Quote
t_mafia Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Another set that has taken a big step back from the initial ideas design. Original design was awesome! This... Not so much. But it should do well if it can be built as the classic ship Quote
gmpirate Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I think it looks great. It's more appealing to kids and adults can easily substitute other colored elements to darken the mood. Quote

Event the package is a throwback to the original Pirates, with the yellow border. If it only had an opening front flap, it would be perfect. 1 Quote
legorunner Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I don't disagree that it is very different from the Ideas submission, and I know some people will have good reason to be very disappointed, but I love this. The two different builds idea is pretty awesome, and I like this innovative step by LEGO. I've gone from "I'll probably pick one up near retirement when the price is right" to "I want one now!" If only double VIP extended to April 1st... Quote
Mark Twain Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Yes, a very different design but I still love it. God, I don’t know how I can justify dropping $200 for it for me ... I mean the kids. My four year old is obsessed with pirates and so is my 7 year old daughter. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Hmm, will this inflate or crash the price of Brick Bounty??? The design looks great https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/pirates-of-barracuda-bay-21322 Quote
