Useful Pirate Pieces from other Themes?

I swear that that part was on PAB up until recently. Maybe it was part of that old-part batch, I don't know?

Was that helmet part of a flower set? Or was it only in purple or so? I don't recall it. Maybe there is a newer design ID.

Nah, that's the bicorne hat, available in magenta and purple.

 

Speaking of which, I'm actually going to buy some orange epaulets, that magenta bicorne, a red pair of pants and a certain teal Ninjago torso for use as a psychedelic pirate captain. (Think like the Beatles outfits from the cover of the Sgt. Pepper album.)

There will a new pirate minifigure in the upcoming CMF series 27. A "quartermaster"

Heard this exact same rumour online.  
 A Wolfpack beastmaster too apparently.

Good stuff. Although I’m still hoping for a future dedicated Pirate only CMF series. And Castle too for that matter. D&D CMF series doesn’t count for the latter, I want a dedicated Castle themed CMF series with yellow skin, featuring Catle factions. Eagerly awaiting the Quartermaster CMF though, should be good.

with yellow skin

Please not

At least the minifigs should have no yellow neckline, so the torso could be used for fleshies as well.

Yes yellow. 
 I abhor flesh heads in non licensed sets.

Perhaps the Quartermaster will be an updated Steve? I’ve always thought of him as a merchant based on Imperial Trading Post, but Quartermaster would make sense for the version in Skull’s Eye Schooner.

Hear hear 

 

super excited for the Pirate related minifig!!

The new Jabba's Sail Barge has a minifigure with an interesting head piece:

One on the top right has a bandana wrapped around his head. I see potential if LEGO recolour the green top part yellow, could do well for a fellow scallywag.

Looks like we are getting a female quartermaster with a new cookatoo. Nice aqua torso with printed brown legs. The black hair with red bonnet is a nice touch. Cannot tell if the torso has hip curves or not. If not, could be a great torso for males as well.

LOVE the new bird! The recent parrots have been just okay; this one is a proper new addition to the pirate related bird pool.

Pictures are out?

michael_bricks_f0rever on Instagram. Just the group shot, and it's blurry, but you can see a decent amount.

Thank you!

The cockatoo looks great. I guess the bird shows up at PAB eventually? Also the steampunk inventor in the back looks interesting (from what i can tell by the blurry picture).

CMF parts are not often on PAB unless they're in regular sets. We've yet to see the falcon from series 24 in either a set or PAB. Same for the hornbill from series 22.

Amy wihehouse with parrot seems a more accurate description. How disappointing.

[brickbride]

From what can be seen in the blurry picture, the Cupid's torso might also work for a sort of torn, stained shirt?

[Yperio_Bricks]

Generally the CMF minifigs looks pretty boring again. A bunch of city minifigs and a castle army builder. Have to wait for better pictures but as of now the steampunk inventor is the only interesting minifig. If we are lucky he comes with a vest and jacket that works for a merchant or an other civilian.

Stoked for the new minifig, love that bird!!

A set of printed 2x2 tile maps from the city jungle exploration sub-theme is available at PAB now:

I find those maps perfect for City sets, but they look a bit goofy for the Pirates IMO

Matt Hooper's hair & hat combo is up at PAB online. Surprisingly the price is great with just 50c for a dual molded piece. Would the piece work for a historic sailor? The ID is 6504271.

It would work for a late 19th - early 20th century sailor. In other words, the crew of the Endurance.

It would work for any sailor/pirate I think, afteral beanies were very common sailor wear in the period. They didnt wear Cocked hats or bandanas as were let to believe.
