"This set, along with Pirates of Barracuda Bay, feel like a lure on whether LEGO will invest in a wave of Pirate sets in the future. Well Im happy this seems to be selling as well as it is. I love original LEGO IPs.
This is my first Pirate ship since the early 2000s and LEGO hit it out of the park as far as im concerned. Good price, good amount of minifigures (considering this is in the creator line), fun build. Brick built masts, shark/parrot; though the original single molds still hold a place in my heart...
If I had ONE complaint, I would have liked to seen another minifigure (female perhaps?) or two extra cannons just to flush the set out a tad more."
