Darth_Raichu Posted August 22 Posted August 22 Nothing like coming full circle. I joined BP because of BP and have stayed around long enough to see the release of UCS version of BP. LOL 5 Quote

BRIX23 Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago I'm excited for it, but agree with some of the reviewers that the price seems off. Quote

Darth_Raichu Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Curious, why did LEGO not call this the Black Pearl ??? 1 Quote

It’s crazy but there is zero mention of The Black Pearl in the manual, except in the use of movie’s name. That’s it. It does look like LEGO/Disney went to great lengths to avoid calling it The Black Pearl. When I spoke to the lead designer Mike Psiaki, he dodged the question, stating that it was an internal LEGO/Disney decision on why to name the set as such, which is frustrating for anyone looking for answers. I’m not entirely convinced that it was Disney’s decision to block the use of The Black Pearl, as they’ve licensed products out like bags to Loungefly (another Disney IP partner), who have a recent bag called The Black Pearl, so who knows what the real story is. ETA: Mike P is the designer of Rivendell, Lion Knights Castle, Titanic and more. Edited 58 minutes ago by Pseudoty 1 Quote

Perhaps the set would have cost $399.99 had it been called the Black Pearl. Quote
