Like many others I really liked the Pirates of Barracuda Bay, it was fun to build, nice to look at, could be a shipwreck hideout or a normal ship, and had an impressive amount of minifigures. This was one of the intended army builder for this period, my question is why include an officer, don’t get me wrong I love the whole Imperial forced labour idea (possibly seen later in the flagship set), with the officer holding the pistol forcing the pirate to uncover (or bury) his treasure.

In honesty both the sets are of a very high-class, and it is nice to have the luxury of choice over a favourite rather than there being only one good set, more of this say’s I arrrg.

Others feel that Brickbeard is just a new release of Roger/Redbeard, due to the close resemblance between the two figures. Lego Pirates minifigures were the first to go beyond the traditional head with simply two dots for eyes and a smile, as many of them had a variety of different printed features including eyepatches, facial hair, and feminine makeup. BrickWarriors are well known for their Fantasy, Vikings, Wild West and Sci-Fi, themes, and they have just released a range of fantastic items in their brand new Redcoats theme.

The idea behind this set is very good; we finally get a set for the large pirate ships to actually attack, a trading post must contain worthy booty for a pirate to plunder.Lego Pirates (stylized as LEGO Pirates) was a Lego theme launched in 1989 featuring pirates, soldiers from the Napoleonic Wars, Pacific Islanders, sailing ships, and buried treasure, being influenced by the late Golden Age of Piracy. I like your opinion I have never thought about that before, after all, all pirates are a little impoverished. This otherwise sounds very brave, although in Pirate Comic he then remarks that they are still too young to die. Redbeard Runner's crew consists of: Black Jack Hawkins, George, Jake the Snake Blake, Gonzo Goldbar, Parma Sean LaFeet and Tattoo McGoo.

saw fewer sets released than 1992, this was the style of Lego at the time, release lots of sets in the first year and then release a smaller number of sets the second year, to keep the theme alive but let them focus on other themes.Governor Tierney is the leader of the redcoats and captain of the new Imperial Flagship in the new pirates' line from 2009 to 2010.
