It reminds of a Galaxy Squad bug. But, to each their own. Not for me, but I can see why someone would enjoy it. Yeah have to say they made something unique and not safe which we've all been bitching about. So give them credit for that. Sure box will have a big impression of whether I like it or not in person. Ah galaxy squad bug. Remember a certain unnamed Lego store selling me a pallet of them. $21 couldn't go wrong lol. Well maybe you could. For some reason limits didn't apply to the last unwanted GS sets 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, this is true to the ship in the movie from what we have seen in the trailer, and unique not the same old ship build. Looks like a neat display set and possible play potential if it doesn't fall apart. Creative and original what we have been asking for not a remake/rehash. The box, seriously? So if Disney Castle came in a plain brown box you wouldn't like it, rhetorical question don't waste your time answering it go enjoy your vacation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauro23 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Two questions: 1. Are the sets from existing wave from different movies? 2. Will there be another sets beside the ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO the black pearl should have had minifigs from the first movie, then the Davy Jones minifig could have come in a flying dutchmen ship (wishful thinking) Curse of the Black Pearl: 4181: Isla de la Muerta Dead Mans Chest: 4182: The Cannibal Escape 4183: The Mill 4184: The Black Pearl On Stranger Tides: 4191: Captain's Cabin 4192: Fountain of Youth 4193: The London Escape 4194: Whitecap Bay 4195: Queen Anne's Revenge Edited February 18, 2017 by John82 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as I remember we had 4 movies and not only three, you have forgotten the third movie - At World's End. Does it mean that we have a gap missing sets from this one?

redghostx Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Thanks. But as I remember we had 4 movies and not only three. Does it mean that we have a gap missing sets from the last one?It means that the third movie was so bad and didn't receive a set. On stranger tides was around at the same time the sets came out, thus sets were released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, yes the third movie may have no sets, although the minifigs with the black pearl probably cover the third movie (At Worlds End), so maybe there isn't a gap. I'd have to watch both of those movies again to be sure though. Edited February 18, 2017 by John82 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunally we have no subthemes for the PotC sets on BrickLink like we have for Indiana Jones or Harry Potter (beside the very last wave).

inversion Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) I have to say that the minifigs are fantastic in my opinion after looking at the high res images (on thebrickfan). Edited February 18, 2017 by inversion 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
house72 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I think it looks pretty bad a$$.. It's not your same ol'e ship persay.. It's different and original and that's what I like to see in a set. KUDO's to the designer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas007 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Worst ship ever. Horrible. Absolutely missed oportunity. They could make a great big ship again, this was great chance, since classic pirate ships are so simple and recycled. If they want to have a scary ship, they can create Flying Dutchman or something like this. Also figs are poor, opposite to great figs from previous POTC sets. I hope they will produce one more, at least classic sized ship, like there was Black pearl and Anne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if its the worst ship ever, it'll probably reach the price of the 4184 or 4195 after it retires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedilego Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Ahh thanks for pinpointing the 'issue' fantomas. I think, like you, people had built up expectations for one thing and received something else entirely, which was a let down. But, and maybe it's just me, if people overcome that they'll see Lego recognized an opportunity, based on the new PotC movie, to make something really unique and different. There will always be more opportunities for a counterpart to the Imperial Flagship and such; pirates (as a branded theme or not) will always be around, even if only intermittently I actually like the set, and so does my wife. We have an extremely modest mermaid cove adjacent to our Imperial Flagship vs. Pirate-colored Imperial Flagship. I think this'll look neat when placed against the cove in it's crooked 'broken' configuration, as if it had been run aground due to battle and / or the lure of the mermaid sirens. The only challenge is, as always, finding room hahah. Unpopular intro, AFOL level appeal at 2k pieces, completely (and probably forever) unique... quite the equation. Then again, tunes could change after the movie. Edited February 18, 2017 by Pedilego 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas007 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I really doubt it will reach the price level of 84 or 4195 after it retires. Not every set from classic pirates and castle series is popular after EOL. Look at the poor performance of Seacow (another untraditional ship). Or a fiasco with Medieval Marketplace and Kingdom Joust - even wonderful sets, but not classic castle sets - and the result is very poor increase in price. I cannot imagine that somebody will pay 400 bucks for this sh..t after EOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Au contraire, never understimate the power of a GOOD licenced theme, which none of the logs you mentioned had. Double RRP is by no means out of the question, it all depends on shelf life, numbers produced and discounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shewie Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Some technical details about size. (26 inch long and 18inch tall)https://sg.style.yahoo.com/new-pirates-of-the-caribbean-dead-men-tell-no-tales-ghost-ship-revealed-in-lego-form-exclusive-120049373.html Well, that's gonna be a massive but fairly fragile construction, defo for display only seeing this flimsy transparent legs on which are standing on. after vetting I will most likely pull the trigger just because of those fabulous minifigs!

LandAhoy Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 as much as I'm gutted there isn't a Kraken i really like this ship and I've been looking at the other POC Ships tonight so i think it will boost sales of the retired ones I'm def thinking about getting all three now.

Leopard Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Since it seems like this will be exclusive only to the Lego Stores, will this ever be discounted at some "random" time? I've only seen discounted items in the Lego stores if it's retired or black Friday deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lego Templar Posted February 19, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2017 I think everyone is missing the point. This is a movie. The ship looks like that. Lego made it to look like that. Take off the "I want a complete ship goggles" THEN look at it. Maybe they will release other ship based sets but this is based on a movie not a legit pirates theme..... I think they did well It's like commenting on the UCS snowspeeder thread and saying "uhhh pass I wanted the UCS At-At" 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
