Additional info on Black Pearl, One Piece and Star Wars from Maxbaut podcast (Source: Maxbaut)
I noticed nobody was discussing the news Maxbaut talked about in his podcast, probably because it’s in German, so I thought I’d write it down. I listened to this ~a week ago, so I might be forgetting some things. Feel free to listen yourself.
-Black pearl: ~2800 pieces, based on the first movies, minifigures are Jack, Gibbs, Will, Elisabeth, Anamaria, Cotton, Marty
-One piece: the 18+ set is the Baratie and the $100+ set is the Going Merry
-Star Wars: the $1000 death star will have ~40 minifigures, you can expect obscure ones like the emperors advisors and specific officers.
-Star trek: Enterprise is ~60cm, has stickers and the big dish can be removed apparently
And yer can take the information straight from the horse’s mouth on Reddit. No that we’re calling IChimney a horse.

Can The LEGO Group design a better set than Genecyst’s MOC?
Brick Fanatics observed 31109 Pirate Ship is comprised of 1,264 pieces, versus the 1,376 pieces of the rumoured Going Merry set, perhaps indicating it will be comparable in size.
