General Armendariz Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Since theirs a new captain in town I made this Vote now And tell everyone why! I personaly think red beards the best! Captain Roger Red Beard Iron Hook Brick Beard That other guy from the Creator set... Call him Captain Pete Edited June 11, 2009 by SlyOwl Quote
Natman8000 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 You could always ask someone to make you a poll. But i think red beard is the best. Brick beard is good, but kind of cheezy. Quote
Ryan_T Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Brick beard is good, but kind of cheezy. Oooo, So I can go eat Brick Beard and he will taste like cheese?!? :D YAY!!! Quote
Al7 Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Captain Iron Hook doesn't has a stick wood leg ... and ofcourse the best Captain will always be Redbeard Captain ! Quote
Sir Dano Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Looks to me like Iron Hook is just a shipwrecked Redbeard... Edited January 12, 2009 by sir dano Quote
General Armendariz Posted January 13, 2009 Author Posted January 13, 2009 Looks to me like Iron Hook is just a shipwrecked Redbeard... Iron Hook has a more brown beard Quote
QuartermasterRobert Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I've always been partial to Iron Hook. He had a cooler name, looked more badassly rugged, and got to harass Islander women. Quote
Al7 Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 Looks to me like Iron Hook is just a shipwrecked Redbeard... That one on display is not captain Iron Hook, captain Iron Hook has 2 normal legs color black pants and his beard is BROWN not a red one, so the one on display is a wrong one that isn't a captain Iron Hook. Quote
SlyOwl Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I'll have to go with Brickbeard, as his torso and head are more useful than the other two. His hook, however... I prefer dark grey, then light grey, but that pearl gold is a bit icky (same with the epaulettes). However, as I prefer Ironhook to Redbeard, I'd like to see a modern guerilla captain (not just a castaway pirate), with a similar torso, just updated. Looks to me like Iron Hook is just a shipwrecked Redbeard... Yeah, I always thought that too, beard aside. Regarding Ironhook, he came out in various guises; pegleg, blue epaulettes... he likes to dress up Quote
Specever Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I would feel... Safer... Under the command of Captain Iron Hook! It is his face... The smile, and protection... Quote
Zepher Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 Brickbeard is the best. Awesome torso, fairly nice face... I guess I never really got Classic Pirates, so I don't have any happy memoires to win me over! Quote
Etzel Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I voted for Captain Roger/Redbeard. It was a very hard choice between him and Brickbeard. I don't like Iron Hook's torso, what kind of captain looks like that? No style at all! Redbeard and Brickbeard however have both great torsos and nice coloured epaulettes (right spelling?). I can't say I like the face on either of them, maybe Brickbeard is a little better. But finally it was the colour of the torso that was the main reason of my choice. I really like green I only got Redbeard at the moment but hopefully I will get my S@H order tomorrow so I can have personal meeting with Captain Brickbeard. Maybe I will change my mind then Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2009 Governor Posted January 31, 2009 Poor old Ironhook, now he's still living in the shadow of two captains instead of one! I think Brickbeard seems too much like an updated version of Roger/Beard, would be good if the LEGO Group could come up with something more unique for future Pirate sets. Quote
Fluyt Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 Poor old Ironhook, now he's still living in the shadow of two captains instead of one! He's just keeping a low profile, so he can take over the world when you least expect it . I don't like BB's head and his golden hook, I hope he gets replaced by a better one, that could rival with Redbeard and Ironhook. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2009 Governor Posted January 31, 2009 Wouldn't silver or chrome be a more appropriate colour for a hook? Quote
Captain Blackmoor Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I voted for Captain Roger/Redbeard because he's just my favorite. It's the only pirate captain I got so far. That's because the new pirate sets aren't avaible here yet. Quote
Legoking Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) I would have to say captain RedBeard because he was the original pirate captain, he is my favorite pirate and he was my first pirate captain I had ever got. Edited January 31, 2009 by LegoKing Quote
Blackheart Brit Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 Tied it up 14-14. I vote Brickbeard. He looks meaner than Redbeard and by his dress his is wealthier than Ironhook. "By some decent clothes you poor sop," both Captains to Ironhook. Quote
Capt. Kirk Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I vote IronHook... Not that he's so fantastic but the other 2 captains look the same IMO (Brickbeard = updated Redbeard). Quote
Zorro Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I voted for good old Redbeard! The new Brickbeard looks more like a Ballet-dancer and Ironhook has something from a beggar/ a since longtime schipwrecked pirate, which doesn't really plea into his advantage . Quote
Thee Pirate Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 Oh snap!!! Apparently I already voted in this poll, but I don't remember how I voted :-/ I only had 1 Redbeard. He has since been lost in the sands of time. I have no idea where he disappeared to, or even how I got him, because I don't have any sets that have him. I should 4 Ironhooks, but a brief glance at my Minifig display shows only 3 torsos, 2 heads, and 1 original hat. I don't know what happened to the other parts. of him :-p I was young, I probably traded pieced with friends, or I just lost them. I now have 6 or 7 Brickbeards, his torso looks so effing sharp. but I can't exactly have that many Captains missing eyes, hands, and legs, so I've done a little customization on him. That torso is so freakin useful. I love it. By swapping out the hook, pants, and putting a different head on him, he can be anything from a stern merchant captain, to a wealthy businessman. Quote
Ratshot Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I agree with Thee Pirate, BB torso is very useful but I don't really like him. Ironhook............huh, I just don't like him hes so useless ...to me that is, I'm not sure why I feel this way. But I decided to vote for Readbeard hes just...awesome Quote
Casval Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I voted Brickbeard. I like Redbeard and all, but he is severely dated and doesn't look menacing. Quote
Blackheart Brit Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 None of them must be good with swords, they have all lost an eye, hand and leg, either swordmanship or sailing. Quote
