deskp Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Thanks, that's great news, tops 5 days left till images. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Sounds great, can't wait for the reveal Hopefully they don't skimp us out on the minifigs, I mean we can at least expect all of the six main characters to make an appearance in this set, right? Right? Right? Usually I'd be a bit more trusty when it comes to D2C sets, but I can still feel the burn of the Disney Castle's minifig roster Edited February 14, 2017 by Lego-Freak Quote
GoldenNinja3000 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 WOOHOO! Great to hear the news and love the fact that it's just $200! If I save aggressively I should be able to get it in March. Plus I'll have a $35 reward to apply to it! And it's funny how I heard this news right after I finished rebuilding my Black Pearl Quote
TAFOL Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Will the POTC Brickheadz also be revealed this weekend? Quote

TheLegoDr Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 A leak isn't a reveal... Anyway, I can't wait to see how this turns out. I likely won't be getting it right away, if at all, but I am still curious on how it looks. Quote

Pricing is not as bad as i thought it would be. Glad we've got confirmation that its the Silent Mary. Hopefully we get pictures sooner rather than later. 1 hour ago, deskp said: Thanks, that's great news, tops 5 days left till images. Well... NYTF is 18th-21st. It could be revealed in person on the 21st at the toy fair or if its a day after then it could be the 22nd via official images online. Quote
Legoman123 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I have a feeling we may get a reveal tomorrow.? As long as we get 10+ mini figures I'll be a happy guy. Quote

As long as we get 10+ mini figures I'll be a happy guy. Main requirements are the following seven; 1. Salazar 2. Jack Sparrow 3. Hector Barbossa 4. Will Turner 5. Henry 6. Carina Smyth 7. Ghostly crew member Just give us those with full printing including arms and legs and i'll be satisified with the figure line-up. If they wanted to expand, perhaps Gibb's and a few variants of the ghostly crewmembers for army-building. 10 figures would be great though. Just as long as we get the core six characters which the film will revolve around, plus a generic ghostly crew member. Hopefully we do see it tomorrow, really interested in seeing how they do it.

Bit of a bummer we didn't get to see the ship today, but those Brickheads look pretty nice! I may have to get both of them to display with the ship! Quote

GoldenNinja3000 Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I'm assuming pictures will release on the 18th, or maybe 17th at the earliest. I can't wait for this ship! If they incorporate the weird bow design, I'll probably make a display of that against the QAR like in the trailer, but if not then I'll just make a three-way sea battle with the ships. Quote
benderisgreat Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Is there a reason Lego decided to make just one UCS set instead of a smal line of 4-5 sets in different price ranges? As someone who missed out on 2011 line, I still don't have Jack Sparrow! And I'd love a cheap-ish set with him, because I don't really care about a gigantic pirate ship, and I'd rather spend 200$ on various other themes , plus I don't even have enough space for new ship. So I'm seriously disappointed in Lego's decision regarding sets for this line. Quote

So I'm seriously disappointed in Lego's decision regarding sets for this line. In my view the reasoning could be along the lines of the following; The ships have more recogniseability and are featured more in the movie than specific locations. From the trailer and the extended superbowl spot we also have'nt been shown any locations in detail that could forseeably be made into sets. We are also only really aware of about 6 or 7 characters, so releasing one ship with all of them makes sense. When people think 'Pirates' they tend to think 'Pirate Ship' so it also appeals at a more basic level. If its popular we could potentially get more sets later (considering we got a few from the previous movies in 2011 due to the popularity/license) At the moment it makes more sense to give us the ship.

So I'm seriously disappointed in Lego's decision regarding sets for this line. There are a lot of AFOL Pirates fans out there... For that market, if there's going to be a limited line, I think most people would want a big ticket ship rather than 4-5 smaller sets. By the way, if you're after a relatively cheap Jack Sparrow minifig - the 30131 polybag goes for about £7 on eBay Quote
TeufelHund Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Pirate ships must be consistent sellers for TLG because they release them on an almost annual basis. Conversely I remember some of the mid-size PotC sets from 2011 hanging around on shelves for years. They've obviously done the maths and decided the best way they can profit from the next film is by releasing a single UCS set. I think as an AFOL it's easy to forget that TLG exist to make a profit and that their main audience is kids and their parents rather than AFOLs. Quote
