Captain Blackbeard Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Bah! Endeavor all the way! A mini Endeavor would be cool too...or a mini fleet of the Hoist the Colors scene. Quote
Napoleon53 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 or a mini fleet of the Hoist the Colors scene. How about lots of the small ships from Hoist the Colors as independent sets? I think I suggested this a while ago. I think smaller one-to-two mid-section ships would sell like hotcakes. Quote
Captain Blackbeard Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) That's a good idea! Now all we need is some LEGO spy to sniff out our ideas and take them back to LEGO! What's that? They don't do that anymore? Ugh. But still, that's a great idea! Edited January 10, 2012 by Captain Blackbeard Quote

They don't do that anymore? Ugh. But still, that's a great idea! When I was younger, I wrote descriptions for about two years of pirate sets centered around a generic soldier faction patterned on the Dutch. I think I called it 'High Seas." It was much, much more like the planned-but-never-released Europa theme from the 80's, and less like regular pirates. I might have to try that again with perhaps PotC instead, just in case Lego ever does check in here. Edited January 10, 2012 by Napoleon53 Quote
Piranha Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 This one (just checking)? Macoco, have you guys seen/heard of any 2012 POTC sets besides the Flying Dutchman? Because the POTC line can be nominally over next year even if the Flying Dutchman set is released, just as the Pirates line ended in 2009 even with the subsequent release of the IFS in 2010. I think there was an indication in the post of a final wave of POTC and the Dutchman is the last set and is the D2C. Quote
Napoleon53 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I think there was an indication in the post of a final wave of POTC and the Dutchman is the last set and is the D2C. You mean there will be another wave of sets and not just the Dutchman!? Quote
Jack Bricker Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) You mean there will be another wave of sets and not just the Dutchman!? Yeah, I kind of heard that too. I don't know for sure but, I would bet my wager on it. It just doesn't make sense for Lego to release only a few of the main characters of the series and skip characters like like pintel and regetti and some of the undead pirates etc...

Napoleon53 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) This is beautiful. Pintel & Ragetti are in my top five favorite characters. If this is true, and there are at least some pirate sets next year, it will be the best year for LEGO in a looonnnnggg time. Dino, Munsters- er, Monsters, LotR, Hobbit... Wow. I'm going to go bankrupt. Edited January 10, 2012 by Napoleon53 Quote

Captain Blackbeard Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Ah, I'm glad to hear this! No offense to the FD, but it will be a bit useless as they won't give it it's full cannon complement, the captain's cabin will be tiny, there won't be a gun deck, and there'll be not very many figs, so we best hope for Pintel and Ragetti. Quote
LegoIndy Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Sincerely, I'm really anxious to see the first, at least, preliminary image of the FD! ;) Quote
Lord Cutler Beckett Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) I can't wait for the Flying Dutchman Hopefully there will be some information soon about not only the FD but other sets too Edited January 10, 2012 by Lord Cutler Beckett Quote
Bluecoupe Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) I can't wait for the Flying Dutchman Hopefully there will be some information soon about not only the FD but other sets too The only thing with potential mini figs that may come with the FD (if its produced) is that we could be getting doubles of the mini figs that come with the Black Pearl? I mean pretty sure that Jack will be there and you can't have the FD without Davey Jones... maybe a Will Turner with a scar on his chest? Its just my speculation though... although I wouldn't mind having an extra Davey Jones Now to pick up a Black Pearl next time when I head south of the boarder Edited January 10, 2012 by Bluecoupe Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Perhaps the Dutchman will be a last hurray for the line as a Lego S@H exclusive, like what's happened in HP and Kingdom's ! But I doubt there will be any more general release sets, especially that dealer I spoke too had asked the state rep who is quite good with his information (I was told about a ninja theme series in August 2010 by the same guy).

LegoIndy Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I can't wait for the Flying Dutchman Hopefully there will be some information soon about not only the FD but other sets too Soon, yes, but... When ? :D Quote
Lord Cutler Beckett Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 we may indeed get a davy jones but mabye also Cutler Beckett, admiral Norrington (uniform) and E.I.T.C. soldiers just like in At World's End when they all come aboard and talk to davy that he is "a loose canon' Quote
Napoleon53 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Aye, I'd me revolted if Beckett wasn't in any sets; he's the main bad guy in two out of four movies! Quote
Storel Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I hope the Flying Dutchman does have some unique minifigs. TLG are over doing some of the minifigs at the moment and for no good reason really :-/ Oh, and for UK members, might be of interest to note that at the moment, Tesco direct has QAR for £76.00. Quote
Bluecoupe Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 lol I totally forgot about Beckett! Now if we do get Beckett then we will also need the HMS Endeavour won't be hard for lego to do just re-release the Imperial Flagship (I missed out on it so anyway I can get my hands on one would be good) and the Hai Peng would be interesting to add into the wish list as well that could open up many possibilities for minifigs too Quote

I've been here the whole time and people forgot about me while i'm the main villain in At World's end Quote
Cammo Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Well the ideal wave for me would be: little sets: Tia Dalma's Shack (exclusive: Tia Dalma, Jack the monkey) Medium sets: Tortuga set, Jack's Trial (hanging) (exclusives: Pintel, Ragetti, Marty, Cotton, Anna-Maria) (exclusives: Musketeer Will Turner, Governor Swann, non-scruffy Norrington) Bigger sets: Singapore set, Brethren court set (Exclusives: Sao Feng, Asian twins, Pirate version of Elisabeth) (Exclusives: elisabeth pirate king version, 2 pirate lords and Cpt. Teague) Biggest set: Flying Dutchman (Exclusives: Cutler Beckett, some Dutchman crewmember, 2 soldiers [maybe those 2 wimps]) Edited January 11, 2012 by Cammo Quote

For Tortuga I could see a tavern (I know they've done one already, but pirates frequent a lot of taverns!) and small dock. (Maybe a pig-sty as well) With: Scarlett, Giselle, Mr Gibbs (and pigs?) a few random pirates. Biggest set: Flying Dutchman (Exclusives: Cutler Beckett, some Dutchman crewmember, 2 soldiers [maybe those 2 wimps]) Murtogg and Mullroy Would love some minifigs of them! Quote
Cammo Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Well for Jack's trial, I just mean a hangplatform (but maybe that's already too child-unfriendly) + the balcony of the fort from Port Royal with the bell. Then a judicial executioner (with a black hood), musketeer Will, Cpt. J. Sparrow, Governor Swann and Norrington. But i guess you can leave out the executioner too because of Lego's anti-violence policy. Quote
Storel Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I just meant 'Port Royal' as the location for Jack's trial Mmm... Dunno whether they'd go for an executioner or not... Quote
Bluecoupe Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I don't understand. I've been here the whole time and people forgot about me while i'm the main villain in At World's end My apologies! I'm new here Quote
