cullmancreations Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I'm about to buy the Black Pearl 4184 brand new in the box for a really good deal. I'm just working over the final details with the seller. I can't wait to build the set and get a hold on those figures especially Davey Jones. Quote
Matthias Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Got 4184, too. And also 4195. The ships shall be complett without figs, but there are many bricks missing. I had to order for 40 € (with a few more cannons) at TLG and Bricklink. Still have no 4195 Flag. My Problem is that I do not bought at Ebay. I bought at "Classified Ads" site called "Ebay Kleinanzeigen". So I have no rights =(. The price is still ok. Both ships without figs for 268 +40 € extra Parts. I do not need the figs, because I am a classic Pirates Collector, just what the ships :). Did anyone have experiance with this spanish costum POTC Figure trader: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Pirates-of-Caribbean-Davy-Jones-Jack-Sparrow-Maccus-compatible-100-with-Lego-/131579714802? If the figs are identical to the original I may buy them to cheat myself in thinking I have the ships complete^^ Quote

If the figs are identical to the original I may buy them to cheat myself in thinking I have the ships complete^^ Regarding the POTC figures, as far as i can tell, they are almost identical. But i will check with mine and will update you! just checked the minifigures, and they are as i expected, almost identical. Only differences i can tell are: - some faces ( mouth pattarn ) is little different. - The color of the minifigures ( Legs, Torso, face and hats ) are more rich in the fake one hope i was off help here mate! :) cheers Quote
Redbeards_Rum Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 I have just acquired some rare figures, the green jacketed pirate, and BlackJack Hawkins. I am however still on the hunt for the elusive brown shirted pirate. Quote
Boromir Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Congrats on this catch...i bought mine NIMB in 2013 for $usd 550......still it is IN Box. Hope to find the time to build it! :) if you have built it, then would be great to see some photos! Regards Thanks! I didn't open it up yet. I have many misb sets to build, and I want to make sure I have plenty of time to really get into the build. When I build it I want to make some small mods as well. Extra cannons for instance and some interiors. I will post some photos when I come around to it :) Quote

CisFran Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I'm a Technic and modulars collector and just discovered the Pirates Theme which is also amazing. Recently bought a used 6243 for $40. With instructions and w/o box, missing a few bits and 2 minifigs but still a bargain. I added a crow's nest after the build Quote

CisFran Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 I got it from a Swiss website just like eBay. (ricardo.ch) Good thing no one bid on that particular item so I got it at the base price what the seller put on it. Quote
BrickOn Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) Yay! I just acquired the Imperial Flag Ship (2010)... I started to build it but now I am away for the weekend so I have to wait to finish it :-) Luckily where I am going also has pirate lego waiting for me because I went on a small ebay rampage, and that was a while ago so its going to be a surprise as to what I find... think there will be an extra cannon or two waiting, but not enough to fill the ship yet. Unfortunately it was the last flaghsip the seller had. If I see one for a similar price I'll definitely send you a message. (I paid NOK 4500,- for a 9/10 box, very happy with that price) Thanks, I bit the bullet and got one in the end, so no need to message, unless its a very good deal (I can have two right? - only kidding I think I would get in a lot of trouble for that!!)

Matthias Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Today you can get 20% on toys at Karstadt in Germany: I got the following for 102 €: 70412 2x 70411 2x 70410 1x Now I have from this sets: 70412 3x 70411 5x 70410 4 x Could also buy a second ship, but also for 80 € it was to expensive to have it twice. I will keep 2 of all for selling when pirates are out of sale, the rest will be mine for ever! Edited September 3, 2015 by Matthias Quote

Congrats on the purchase! I would love another as well, but for the price it goes for i'd rather buy other awesome sets. I guess I would also get some trouble for that :-D Quote
Boettner Builds Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Pirates chess set is on sale on lego s@h. So I bought 2 :) Quote
Sigolf Brimabane Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Just ordered the parts I need for Imperial Trading Post (including the brown vest guy). It'll be complete apart from the sails, the guvna and the rucksacks. I also got the Zombie pirate yesterday. Edited September 15, 2015 by Sigolf Brimabane Quote
blackdeathgr Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 70413 just built. I will leave it constructed for about a month or so to partly-admire it and then it will be labeled as awesome moc material Quote
Hobbythom Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Got the Armada flagship with box for €40. It even had a poster from that line. Very awesome. Anyway I have no room for the box so if anyone wants it I am willing to ship (no pun intended) it. Quote
Captain Dee Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 Well, I broke down and bought the silly-nilly zombie pirate captain - it was the last of 4 remaining of that series at the local TRU. The torso ain't bad even with spots, and I like that shovel-blade beard, and being a pirate I just had to have at least one. But unfortunately for him I have some rather heinous plans up my sleeve... if I can get it done on time... Quote

BrickOn Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 if someone can come out with Zombie Pirate theme like a MOC,,,then it will look super from what i can imagine! My other half started to do that with the Zombie pirate captain and some skeletons when I wasn't looking, I have not taken it apart yet... and I considering making some improvements. I don't mind though because after visiting a toy fair, I got bought small hull and stern pieces, two cannons (came with a free middle section of the boat), some mast sections and ladders, some old (slightly dirty) sails, the 1989 Pirate captain(I don't think I had him before), some vintage pirates and treasure chest (with gold coins), some vintage blue coats and Governor Broadside (wrong hat but I actually have a spare somewhere)... I will let more people play with my lego if they did the same thing afterwards! Quote

BrickOn Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 The zombie ship or the items? I didn't buy the lego bits and pieces myself, they were bought for me and I have to wait until Wednesday until I get my hands on them, but sure I'll post some pics then. I am kinda pleased since they were definitely cheaper than the stuff I was looking at on ebay :-) Quote
TalonCard Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 So both MetalBeard's Duel and Shipwreck Defense went on sale on Amazon recently, and I got them both yesterday. Already assembled SD; looking foward to putting together MetalBeard...now! :D TC Quote
BrickOn Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) This is my little haul, bought for me from a Toy fair at the NEC, Birmingham (UK), it all came in at just under £18, not too bad. IMG_8965, on Flickr I'll need to do a bit of switching round with the Imperial Soldiers, I actually have the correct hat for Governor Broadside, it came on a vintage fireman, so all sorted And one of the parrots is destined to become a zombie parrot for the Zombie captain Edited October 1, 2015 by BrickOn Quote
Matthias Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Very good deal. Broadside alone worth nearly 10 €. The brown wheels of the cannon are horrorble expensive too. 0,50 € for 1 wheel is normal. Quote
