I went overboard once TRU started their sale on Lego sets...

I have:

2 Brickbeard's Bounty

2 Soldiers' Forts

3 Shipwreck Hideouts

1 Loot Island

1 Kraken Attackin'

5 Cannon Battles

1 Pirate Survival

3 Soldiers' Arsenal

I still haven't opened up 1 Bounty and 2 Hideouts.

One of the forts is built box stock, and the other is customized a little. Once I get back to Florida, I'll be opening up the other Bounty and modifying it to my hearts content.. I don't know if I'll open up the other 2 Hideouts or hold onto them for a decade or two and leave them MISB. :pir-sceptic:

Edit: oh yeah, I bought one of the Pirate Building Sets.. once I get back to Florida, I'm also swapping out his head for something a lot better.... and maybe a tricorn too so he can be a merchant captain or something.

No sets, only a few minifigs and new parts through BrickLink. I have to wait a few more weeks before I can lay my hands on the first amount of sets that hit these shores. But then again, I am in Europe where the sets have not even been introduced so far, not even by the Lego Stores.

-Cannon battle

-Soldier Fort

I didn't get a lot of oppurtunities with any sales (as usual :pir-hmpf_bad: )

That sale is still on for another two days, but you might have to stop at a couple TRU stores... I had to go to 5 before I found one with the ship, and that one store had like 30 of them :pir_laugh2:

Great Idea for a thread! It's always interesting to get an idea of what sets people have.

I have:

cannon battle x3

Kraken attacken x1

loot island x1

soldiers fort x1

brickbeard's bounty x1

I wanted to pick up one of each impulse as well, but I decided that I would get a few more cannon battles as they included 1 pirate and solder and a cannon.

I got these from Toys R Us. Hopefully I will be getting Brickbeard's Bounty this holiday season.

Loot Island

Cannon Battle

Kraken Attackin

Pirate Construction Set

I have Shipwreck Hideout built and in my possession. I have Soldier's Fort, Loot Island, Cannon Battle, and Soldier's Arsenal purchased and waiting to be given to me by my girlfriend as Chirstmas gifts. Krackin Attackin and Brickbeard's Bounty don't really appeal to me too much. I only really want the sets for the cool soldiers. I'd rather wait for Brickbeards Bounty to go on sale for about $50 permanently to buy it, its not worth $100 to me at all.

So far I picked up only 4 Cannon Battle sets through TRU sale buy one get one 50% off. Im planning to buy the following:

Cannon Battle X 5-10

Solider Impulse Set X 10

Kraken Attacking X1-2

Soldiers Fort X1 Debating if I should

BB SHip X1 debating if I should

Loot Island X1

Shipwreck Island X1 Debating if I should

The main reason for my debates is this huge castle project that Id been working on for past 3 years costing me $5,000+ so far. The pic will be posted sometimes soon.

I have Shipwreck Hideout at the moment, and for Christmas will be acquiring at least a Soldiers' Fort. I'll likely end up getting some of the smaller sets too, and at least one Soldier's Arsenal =D

~Trexxen

Wow. you guys are keeping it up.

I have

Cannon Battle X 10

Soldiers Fort

Brickbread's Bounty

Loot Island

I don't think I will get anymore before new ships come out,

Land stuffs don't do it for me, I like ships better..and my Ship now is full with Canons lol....

I don't have any sets,but I'm going to get Cannon Battle as an early X-mas present to myself when/if I can find it in stores.

Brickbread's Bounty

:pir_laugh2:

UPDATE:I now have some sets :pir-cry_happy: .

1 Cannon Battle

1 Soldiers Fort

1 Pirate Survival

and 1 Brickbeards Bounty. :pir-classic:

So far, my wife has the Shipwreck Hideout, which, a week after purchase, remains unopened on the shelf to date( and much to my temptation), and I have Brickbeard's Bounty, sailing the dangerous seas of my dining room. This is my first Pirate set ever in over 30 years of collecting LEGO, as I've never had much interest in the line, but I have to say it's a pretty sweet set...I was downright giddy when she was all done. I actually bought it as a surprise Christmas gift for my wife, but I couldn't resist when I got home, so I'll probably get her the Soldier's Fort instead. She heaved a bit of invective my way when I told her my true intentions, but I've since been forgiven..at least that's what I keep telling myself as i look over my shoulder.

LOL~...Bread<--> Beard

I must be hungry!

I've got:

2 x Brickbeard's Bounty

2 x Soldier's Fort

1 x Shipwreck Hideout

1 x Loot Island

1 x Krackin Attackin'

3 x Cannon Battle (So far, will be getting more when I see them)

3 x Soldier Impulse (Probably more of these too)

1 x Pirate Impulse

Still trying to track down more Cannon Battles at TRU befroe the sale ends

2 Brickbeard's Bounty

2 Soldiers' Forts

4 Shipwreck Hideouts

1 Loot Island

1 Kraken Attackin'

67 Cannon Battles

0 Pirate Survival

30 Soldiers' Arsenal (ordered from Lego...waiting for them)

I Really hope we see more sets from this line, I really want to see new "Blue Coats"

I managed to get ahold of a Shipwreck Hideout, a Kraken Attackin' Raft, and a Cannon Battle. I could've got more, but I'm on a fixed budget and need to buy Christmas Presents. I would like to get a ton of the soldier impulse packs and a few of the modular fort sets as well.

Cheers!

Right now, just down the two impulses and BB--and my mother, who's decided after seeing mine she's gotta have a set of her own, is only down the BB, and Loot Island and the S/W Hideout (she's getting the latter two for Christmas). 30-ish and 50-ish AFOLs... who says this isn't a "family" and/or "lifetime" hobby?lol

UPDATE: Scratch the impulses--just waiting for a little more "ready cash" and the next sale to do the BB's...

In my position, it would be a miracle to get anything that costs more than $30...

Because the new pirate's line isn't released in Europe yet I haven't any of them. But I have some of the old pirate's line:

The Armada Flagship 2x

The Redbeard Runner 2x

Fort Eldorado

Caribbean Clipper

Buccaneers ( contains only 6 minifigs and a treasure chest )

12 Imperial Bluecoats

A lot of extra pieces obtained from Ebay, friends and Bricklink.

Of course I want everything from the new pirate's line and I'm probably going to stock them up!

Edited by Cap'n Blackmoor

So for Christmas I can confirm I'm getting a Shipwreck Hideout and a Soldiers' Fort, yay!

That brings my total sets to:

2 Shipwreck Hideout (it's an amazing set!)

1 Soldiers' Fort (Plan to pick up at least 2 more by the end of 09)

And that's just what I'll have at 11 AM Christmas day - THEN I go to my grandparents' house =D

(Anyone counting soldier figs, that brings me to 4 soldiers, 3 officers, and an admiral. =D)

Today I took advantage of the buy one get one half off sale at Toys R Us and picked up a Soldiers Fort and Shipwreck Hide Out, I absolutely love them both! They are my first Pirate sets and I only wish I can find a proper place to set them up with a good setting to do them justice.

No sets, only a few minifigs and new parts through BrickLink. I have to wait a few more weeks before I can lay my hands on the first amount of sets that hit these shores. But then again, I am in Europe where the sets have not even been introduced so far, not even by the Lego Stores.

Like jamtf, I haven't any sets yet as I live in Europe (well the UK), however, I will definitely buy:

  • Cannon Battle :cannon:
  • Pirate Survival
  • Soldier's Arsenal
  • Loot Island

If, after that I still have enough money, I will buy the other sets.

Just bought 2 Soldier Forts yesterday, taking advantage of TRU's buy 1 get 1 @ 50% off Lego sale. They were hard to get! I had to sign up for the "email me when in stock" thing like ten times before I caught it in stock.
