Have you heard that there's an upcoming Harry Potter set no. 76440 which is going to be a new version of the Durmstrang ship?

I bet it's not going to use the 4+ hull, like the previous one:

I'm expecting either standard hull pieces or a smaller, brick-built hull.

Anyway, let's wait and see if it's worth the attention of us Pirate fans.

Black hull pieces in betting on 

We have a picture of the new Harry Potter ship:

I want it for the sails.

Are the shields printed or stickered?

Stickers all the way

To bad I like them more than the ones from the usual medieval factions.

Anyone else read this and perk up?

An early 20th century sailing ship? Intriguing to say the least. And if the price point is as advertised, should be enough to cover for a number of sail shapes. Those barkentines had a lot of them.

Quietly optimistic about this. 
While it won’t date correctly with my pirate ship, making some small nip/ tucks might make it look like a cool merchant vessel.

Sounds exciting, hope it is true. 

With Space getting a revamp and special focus this year from Lego, could it be possible that each year Lego has will have an emphasis on one of their more classic themes. And if so we may get some normal pirate sets next year, or the year after. (Please let their be an imperial flagship remake!)

At one time Castle was almost as dead as the Wild West theme.  Now both themes, castle and pirates, have had a starring role with the lion knights castle and barracuda bay, along with a three in one each. A longstanding rumor has been Helms Deep remake is next after Barad Dur, and the Endurance may be considered pirate enough sadly. We've even had a small return of the adventure theme too.  I could be wrong of course, but I have the feeling that bricklink designer is gonna be left to try to fill the void. I just feel like Bionicle has to be entering the real nostalgia period, 2015 was too early, for the few people that can afford to splurge nowadays.

After Barracuda Bay and Eldorado Fortress I would love a remake of 6278/6292 Enchanted Island. 

I'm sorry but 10210 is in DESPERATE need of a remake and with the rumored Endurance I don't see a new ship any time soon, sad!

I dunno, I built it recently and a lot of it holds up. I’d prefer an actual armada ship that a remake of a remake.

Oh no don't get me wrong it doesn't need a remake because it's not well made it's just we need a new imperial flagship. When the last one was released I was in pre-school. I still want it to this day :(((

That probably has some issues with it unfortunately like the Western Indians theme, however both of them where included in licensed sets in the last 10-15 years so it is a small hope they will return 

Not sure if anyone here has seen the new Pirates of the Caribbean skins from Fortnite, but they look amazing!

It makes me hopeful the theme could be revived just like the Lord of the Rings theme. The Black Pearl and Flying Dutchman could be two Icons sets, with a huge piece count and new minifigures with new useful parts.

Elizabeth's and Barbossa's hat/hair combo pieces look amazing and need to be produced in real plastic!

I know, they're beyond gorgeous but I unfortunately have no hope for a remake any time soon (((((( Even though a UCS Dutchman and Black pearl are currently my most wanted sets

I know how you feel matey, I've been hopeful for a PoTC theme revival for a long time, the new Fortnite skins at least give me hope TLG is aware of the demand. A Black Pearl and Flying Dutchman would be the equivalent of Rivendell and Barad-dûr for me.

The possible minifigure selection of the two ships could give use lots of new pieces as well and if they made the Dutchman in a grey color scheme we could finally get grey hull pieces, not to mention we could possibly get new brown canon holder pieces that aren't plagued with the brittle brown curse!

Are these official ones from the video game? Think I prefer older Jack's faces, looks more like the source material compared to this new rendition.

They are the official renders from Fortnite yes. I think they all look massively improved but I agree with you on Jack's face, it seems like the outfit printing is based on the first 3 movies while the face printing is based off the last movie. I really dig the new skin tone though!

Indeed, now imagine if it was officially produced! 

This reminds me to catch up with the latest news about POTC 6. Is there a movie coming in 2027 or not?

POTC 6 is my last hope
