6260 - Shipwreck Island
It may be small, but it's a worthy addition to any pirate layout. Two minifigs, two animals, a printed island baseplate and gold! This maybe one of the best values in the line, from way back in 1989. Check out the full MISB unboxing and review and decide for yourself.

Spanish Colonization of Latin America
This great scene comes to us from ACPin and features many Spanish Conquistadors arriving to the small island to talk to the natives. Be sure to check out all the photos and get a good look at the excellent water detailing and simple but effective vegetation.

French Frigate Minerve (20 guns)
A majestic ship built by Eurobricks heavyweights Bonaparte and Captain Green Hair, this ship has custom sails and rigging that may just take your breath away. If you are in Belgium, you might get a chance to see it in person, but at least the rest of us can enjoy viewing the photos and discussing such a wonderful ship in the forum.

Where's All the Rum?
Shipwrecks happen, but when it happens to you remember step one: locate the rum! Matthew Hurt built this amazing shipwreck scene with tattered brick sales and planks everywhere. Looks like the pirates are making the best of it though, at least they have a safe place from the rain.

Porto de Sao Filipe
Toltomeja has created a simple scene with a fort high up on a rocky plateau. There are a lot of great small details like the uneven planking on the dock, seagulls, and a great statue.

Big power in a small package.
Everyone loves a good underdog story, well here's one on the high seas! One little canon, will they be able to take out the ship and head home with much needed gold and rum? It's going well so far!

What be this magic?
Constantly pushing the boundaries of what can be done with LEGO elements, Siercon & Coral treat us with this interesting concept. They have built an island out of strange colors with the sole purpose of inverting the colors on the final image. The result is surreal and amazing.

The dog won't help you.
TheBrickAvenger has taken it upon himself to recreate some Playmobile sets in LEGO form. This is his second set and it came out looking at least ten times better than the source material. I especially like the look of the prison walls where he has mixed plates and tiles to give it a real stone feel, as well as the mixing in of a few darker pieces to break up the solid color a bit. Check out the rest of the pictures on the forum, and you'll see the prison has a moving door and the great details on the dock too.
