Nary a pirate set among them… but The LEGO Group hasn’t released any new pirate sets lately… so they must be waiting for the fourth quarter of this year.
I’ve been marooned and have no idea what this about!
The LEGO Group is celebrating their 90th Anniversary this year so they’ve been holding a series of contests to celebrate.
Look at all those contests you could have entered… or maybe you did?
They’ve held contests for various classic themes including Castle, Space and Bionicle, but being LEGO Pirate fans, we’re only covering the Pirate Contest.
You can access all the 90th Anniversary contests on the official contests webpage.
And, if you haven’t been reading the Classic-Pirates.com blog you’d do well to follow our Instagram or join our Facebook Group (or both) to keep up with the latest news.
Levi writes:
“When the ship the Leviathan crashed into the side of a mountain that looked suspiciously like a skull, Captain CJ Mason and his pirate crew found themselves a new home where a secret treasure awaits to be found.”
Here be the island – and it’s loaded with details!
The build weaves in homages from various LEGO Pirate sets.
Skull Harbour… Pirates Perilous Pitfall… Pirates of Barracuda Bay… Forbidden Island…
And from above it’s an eclectic assortment of all kinds of piratey things – there’s even a kraken bursting out of the shipwreck!
And here’s the treasure chamber… it’s got Aqua de Vida… the Trident of Poseidon… even Excalibur!
And there you have it!
About the Builder…
We’re loyal followers of @levicjmason on Instagram and you should be too! There you will discover a variety of pirate creations interspersed with builds from a plethora of themes.
