I know it may be considered sacrilege to some, but I've always generally preferred the moulded animals. Deer are number one on my wishlist Heretic ! Strung him up ! Boo, he is so ugly ! Quote

They have a bunch of cool lego compatible goodies, including those terrific animals! Same idea as the Brickarms weapons. They are also loads cheaper then if you tried to get the Official Lego version off of Bricklink. Edited January 13, 2020 by LM71Blackbird Quote
The Neighborhood Merchant Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Anyone else know of neat custom molds that'd work well with BoBS builds or just general MOCs? I think I saw some filled glasses of ale before in one of @Darnok's builds. I'm by no means a purist and just want things to look unique, so I'm up for anything! Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) @Ayrlego Drooling over those animals and also drooling while waiting to see your new builds! Captain Wolf had also found (waaaaay back) some tan versions of cows somewhere. I believe it was brickforge again.

gedren_y Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 I have a number of Brickforge items, including the tan cow and a couple different colored lambs. The horns designed for the Brickforge cow are more useful than those made for the LEGO cow. You can even buy udders for your Brickforge cows. I use the Brickforge square bottles when I'm representing uisge in my builds. I've gotten creative with quite a number of their items. Quote
gedren_y Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 How many of us are going to mod the new Pirates Ideas set? Or at least use the instructions to get those angles and other useful details? Quote

Probably the best ship I have seen from Lego - and I am quite certain it is the first with proper tumblehome. I never got the Imperial Flagship, but this looks like it has even more interesting techniques. As you say, the angles are looking real nice, particularly around the stern. Quote
Ross Fisher Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 @gedren_y I'd feel like a hypocrite if I didn't buy it. Of course it needs a third mast and different sails; a recolour on those hatches, more cannons... But I've also got some spare hull pieces that are crying out to be used, and Ive got a neat idea about a ship crossed with a cathedral. It'd even have a pulpit. After all, my Sig is now Canon of the Brick Seas... Quote

Maxim I Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Can't wait to order it :D Honestly, it has been really long since I have been so hyped of a new set TLG releases. (or maybe the Harry Potter line was a good effort as well) It is genius of LEGO to combine a ship and an island together. And the ship is so beautifull it won't misfit between my MOC's :) Hooray hooray! Quote
Bregir Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Just now, Maxim I said: And the ship is so beautifull it won't misfit between my MOC's :) I was actually thinking it could almost look as one of @Capt Wolf 's ships - the way they have done tumblehome and the overall style reminds me of them. (Which I hope comes across as praise for both!) 41 minutes ago, Capt Wolf said: An amazing statement, and I was thinking the same thing when I saw the pictures yesterday. Very anxious to see it in person! Indeed! Although having seen a few reviews, including comparisons to the original, I've got to say the original is also an all-star. Mainly because the overall shape doesn't have that boxy cabin in the back, but a more dynamic curve. Quote

But indeed, when checking the videos and pictures, I had to think about Capt Wolf's ships as well :) Quote

LM71Blackbird Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 I haven't bought a LEGO set in a while, but this one needs to be on my shelf... Really looking forward to the ship portion of the build as well. I imagine there will be lots of new renditions of the ship sailing the brick seas once we all get it! Quote
dr_spock Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Hopefully the set will be around for a while.
