Just need an enemy ship to shoot at
Posted: June 4, 2009
"This is the best medium sized Ship since the Carribean Clipper!
Hoping for a larger Imperial Soldier ship to fight this one!
I bought the Canon Battle to add a fourth canon to the ship. I replaced the rear swivel canon with a shorter "homemade" one out of extra Star Wars parts.

Double masts make it look awesome!!!

Price is reasonable
Longer than past ships in this size

Cons:
Weak excuse of a crane
No Anchor?!?
Too easy to put together, some instruction pages only had ONE piece to add!!!
The bow and stern base plates are too simple
The rudder is flimsy and small (I modified mine to be bigger)
The Masts are too flimsy too.

Overall a great ship that I will be making modifications to. Mostly reinforcments to its unstable areas... also in my pirate world there are glider-bombers so my ship will have anti-air canons on the crows nest.
The Soldier's Fort goes well with it as a "dock" because it has a REAL Crane. Or the Medieval Market as a "Dock". Just need to apply some imagination here and there."

good set, bad price
Posted: June 3, 2009
"this is my first review.
this set is fun to play with! although im not much of a fan of the canons since the broadsides are hard to fire.
although its an expensive set for the massive size and pieces.
ive decided to put pros and cons also, if you buy this with several other sets, u have a full crew. plus, the captains quarters can be filled with treasures. i HAVE seen the old maps (one ship water and an X on an island) and i cant beleive lego didnt take the time to remake it.
PROS : D
very good playability
canons (whats a ship without canons?)
brickbeard (very cool minifig)
sails
flag is more piratey and is not a solid plastic piece anymore.
the one pirate with a green hat and a smile seemed liked the perfect first mate
CONS D :
mast tend to fall apart
hard to fire canons
very hard to put captains quarters on ship without it falling apart
no crows nest
no anchor
hard to build.

as you can see, most of the cons are building problems and detail problems. lego WOULD make it a better set, but with the rising prices of supplies its hard to."

"I liked this ship very much from the very first time I saw it; maybe because it was a new Pirate line or because it reminded me of the legendary Black Seas Barracuda set released back in 1989.
There are a lot of interesting parts about this ship-From new double torso pirates and redcoats to new colors (the boat, the row boat, pirate accessories, the parrot, the cannon etc.) and awesome new shark (I personally like it much better then the old small sharks. This one can swallow the entire minifigure). The boat is pretty well designed towards the back with Captain's cabin being the highlight of it.
The only downfall I see with this set is lack of Pirate crew. Only 3 pirates and 1 captian on the entire boat :(
With that said this set is worth the money and I recommend it to any pirate fan."

Posted: May 9, 2009
"That set is just awesome! Now to the Pros and Cons
Pros:
-HUGE ship with really neat sails and cannons!
-really nice minifigures
-shark, parrot, and monkey
-pieces in rare colors such as the windows
-captain's cabin is big.
-nice mermaid on the front
-really nice minifigures

-nice mermaid on the front
Cons:
-Way expensive for $100, shouldh have been $70-$80.
-the crane is just weird
-lego forgot to put an anchor!!!
-the cabin as only a printed map (which is originally to the Indy line but lego decided to put it in the Pirates sets =/ ) and a table with a cup, and a stool. There should have been more stuff in there, but as you get more pirates sets you can fill it up with diffrent accesories.
Overall really neat set if you have the money for it."

A really fun set
Posted: April 19, 2009
"This is lots of fun to play with and create different adventures with. My brother built it in about two hours. This is our first LEGO pirates set and it was great!
Pros:
-8 minifigures, as well as 4 animals (mouse, parrot, monkey, shark)
-Cannons really do fire
-Roof comes off of cabin so you can play inside
-Details like a water barrel under the cabin make the set interesting
Cons:
-Sails take a little while to get on and off
-Doesn't really float
Overall, we have really enjoyed this set!"

Nice set!
Posted: February 18, 2009
"This is a very nice set. The shooting cannons are good, and I like the stern chaser (cannon at the back of the ship). However, the Captain and sails look a bit too cartoony. Also, I think that LEGO could have really put in two cannons per side, not just two rotating ones. The set could use a few more mini-figs and is very pricy, but overall it is a good set."

Brickbeards Bounty
Posted: February 15, 2009
"Brickbeards Bounty is a very good set. I would recommend it to all pirate lovers. It is also good for beginners, it only took me 2 to 3 hours to complete. The things I don't like about it are, that it was a little pricey and there's these rifles that are in front of the ship that are in really bad spots. Plus, the princess doesn't have legs! But, other than those things it is a good ship."

Beautiful Pirate Ship!
Posted: February 14, 2009
"This set is AWESOME!
Te ship is incredibly detailed, especially the captains quarters at the the stern and the mermaid figurehead. The size is also quite decent, especially at the price that I paid for it. All the golden parts make the ship look gorgeous.
To sum it up,
Pros:
Huge!
Very detailed
Fabric sails
Giant shark
Working cannons

"As an ADULT collector of lego pirates I was super excited to add this to my collection. Unfortunately this ship looks out of place in the same waters as the old legendary pirate ships. Luckily the pro's outweigh the con's and make this set worth it. It's a beautiful ship with a beautiful princess now go save her!
PROS:
Rich looking ship
Gold treasure chest
New shark
Lots of Cabin room
Beautiful Princess(Admirals daughter)
Beautiful Mermaid built into front of ship.
Better constructed sails than older ships.

Awesome!
Posted: January 31, 2009
"This is a great pirate ship. It has just about all the stereo-typed pirate stuff and then some. A Pirate with a hook hand, and a peg-leg, an eye patch, with a skull and cross-bones hat. A Treasure chest with gold and jewels, a parrot, a plank, and a shark. Also many other cool stereo-type stuff that you will have to discover if you purchase this set.
A few other things that I failed to mention, the sails are made of cloth, I really liked that. It also has Three cannons that shoot really great and far. Two cannons on deck, that you can put on either side of the ship, and one to protect the rear of the ship. The only thing that would have made this set better, (in my opinion) would have been two more cannons to put on deck. Besides that, this could be the best lego pirate ship thus far."

Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me!
Posted: January 17, 2009
"Here is a pirate ship that is commemorating 20 years of Lego Pirates! This set has a lot of features like pearl gold elements, an Agents shark, pirates, soldiers, and a mermaid! Lego hasn't made a mermaid figure since the Harry Potter line! Onto the Pros and the Cons:
Pros:
Dual-sided torsos.
Mermaid
Sharky
Peg-Leg, hook, and Bicorne hat for Captain Brickbeard
Epaulettes (The neck pieces on the Soldiers and the Captain)
Treasure
Firing Cannons
Monkey
Flintlock Pistols, Cutlass Sword, Musket Rifles and new telescope piece
Gold Elements (This captain must be possessed with gold)
Tricorne hats and plume
Shako (The tall stamped hat on the Imperial Oarsman)
Cons:
No anchor
Should have cannons at all bays
Blue rowboat and White Oars (Must be Imperial Trademark)
Not enough treasure
Needs more pirates and cannon balls
The skull and crossbone looks strange
Net falls apart too easily.
Should have a new dynamite piece
In the old days, there used to be a working compass on the Lego ships
It's a bit pricey
Overall, this set is excellent with some improvement needed. I highly recommend it. All Lego has to do now is come out with an Imperial Flagship and maybe conquistadors and Bluecoats Soldiers and Islander Natives. I salute you on this one, Lego!"
