Star Wars Figbarf

Flickr user Adam Dodge has posted this creative picture of pirate figures meant to represent characters from the Star Wars universe. It's a great idea and well executed, as any Star Wars fan should be able to identify who the figures represent. He has incorporated pieces from classic pirates all the way to pieces from Pirates of the Caribbean and even other themes. If you check out his photostream he also has some other great creations.

Fancy New Pirate Figures are Coming!

We may be missing a pirate theme this year, but LEGO is throwing us a bone with some new minifigures! Series 8 in the Collectible Minifigures line has some amazingly detailed figures for pirate theme lovers. We get the newly designed Pirate Captain complete with a pearl gold saber and hook, in addition to a highly detailed Conquistador with a pearl gold helmet and printed armor as well as printed legs.

Discuss Series 8 Minifgures in the forum.

3 vs. Many

Not all Pirates wear rags and sail on ships.  Some come in a more sophisticated form.  Musketeers are just those men.  Men of class but also of skill, they enjoy fine wine, and can drop your pants with a swing of their blade.  I actually feel sorry for the incoming group of Cardinal Guards.

Brave soldiers!

It's always nice to see some good-looking custom minifigs, and these Prussian soldiers built by Classic-Pirates.com user woody64 certainly fit well into the LEGO Pirates theme! Check out all these custom-made torsos and accessories!

A beautiful elegant ship!

Something new has appeared on the seas, a beautiful elegant ship! It is a fantastical ship of her majesty Queen Beatrix from Brickland! It is a ship to travel short distances, and she is very fast and agile. With a beautiful figurehead and many other nice features this ship is unique in it's kind!

EB member L-space brings us his 2010 Community Build entry, A poor house/charity building were people in need of cloths, food, water and tax relief can find refuge from the pressures of the world.

A nice environment for the children.

The 2010 Community Build brings us lots of neat entries, including badboytje88's orphanage.The orphanage, ran by Father McBrickbeard and his evil nuns,  try to find  new homes for the children who have been saved from the sea, pillaged villages and other nasty places.The truth is that the little orphanage is a very dangerous place for kids. They are abused, beaten and even sold to rich folks, or worse......pressed into slavery!
