Battling a mighty whirlpool and then finding yourself in an underwater paradise filled with riches galore. Sounds great - well, at least that's what the scurvy crew of a small vessel thought. However when they tried to take the riches of Charyblantis, they soon found themselves having to escape from pretty angry undersea beasts.
Yargh, there be treasure under the sea!
SlyOwl delivers us another outstanding MOC. Jam packed with hidden treasure, the aquatic city of Charyblantis is certainly an awe inspiring creaton. Filled with details and undersea warriors, the MOC is split in two, a top section and an underwater section. Both house great building skills and techniques. The interesting name as some of you may have guessed derives from Charybdis, a whirlpool in Greek mythology, and Atlantis.

RichardAM's second Pirate MOC. A pirate ship stranded, leaving only one poor survivor alive that now wishes he had married the butcher's daughter and started a new life as a meat delivery boy.
Will the poor pirate ever see his fellows again? His mate didn't have as much "luck" as him...

Among Brickforge's new additions to their range of customs are a primitive spear and adze - great for variety in any Islander army. The new designs also helps differentiate between Incas, Mayas and Aztecs etc. and the Polynesian Islanders from the Lego sets.
Oonga-boonga-oonga-boonga-oonga-boonga-oo-oo!

Arrr! We're here for your gold!
''Just a simple vig to celebrate my new camera.'' Imagine this: you're a soldier aboard an Imperial Ship. You see the black and white Pirates flag. You immediately alert the captain. But it's already too late. . .They're boarding the ship! You need to fight for the Empire and for your life!

Another beautiful MOC from RichardAM: the pirates can't believe their eyes when passing by Mermaid Rock!
Though the map was innaccurate, the journey was far from a failure- Mermaid Rock proved to be the real treasure of the quest.

TheBrickster wants to know...
What do you want to see added to the new Pirates lines? A Pirates of the Caribbean license line? A new and much more detailed pirate ship? A fresh Armade line? Or do you just want a lot of re-releases of the older sets in form of LEGO® LEGENDS sets? Or maybe something entirely new?

SlyOwl treats our eyes yet again with another stunning MOC, entitled "Tortuga? Aye, Tortuga".
Honey, I think we should find a new travel agent...
The MOC includes tons of exciting minifig action in every corner, along with some lovely buildings with unique design elements such as the very creative black roof. Every time you look you'll see a quirky new detail to enjoy.

The pirates, although running for their pathetic little lives, are hunted down one by one by the Islanders, who are lead by a new King. At least the crocodiles are happy...
Achu has killed Kahuka and now rules the tribe.
