In our efforts to provide ourselves and our members with an ever growing LEGO collection, we found a cheap MISB set on eBay.
The ship that transports the gold found in the New World back to Spain!
If you want to buy even more MISB/MINT sets we have created a Mint in Sealed Box Madness thread in the Pirates forum, especcialy for the members and visitors of the Pirate forum!
No one pays attention to signs anyway... right?
This clever vignette by Crimson Wolf is packed with all sorts of details, including blue rubber bands around the tentacles and the pirate’s little accident when he encounters the sea monster…
Discuss his fate in the Pirate forum!
Classic-Pirates has added a new leader, Vice Admiral Zorro!
He has worked very hard for Classic-Pirates, and now has a brand-spanking new title, complete with red font, a name without number (Plus proper capitalization), and the responsibility of shaping up all of the Classic-Pirates.com sea dog crew to ship-shape standard.
Let’s give a warm welcome to our new Vice Admiral in the Pirate Forum!
I Scream Clone gives us an updated version of the classic Eldorado Fortress set with his “My Eldorado Fortress” MOC. The newer building techniques such as SNOT, and more recent colors like tan and dark bley give it a modern touch while still retaining the classic feel and design of the old version.
With a modern twist!
Discuss the updates in the LEGO Pirates Forum!
SirNadroj blows us away with what is perhaps his greatest creation ever, a beautiful Dutch whaler:
"Look, Cap'n! It's Moby Dick!"
The MOC is complete with blocks of ice, a gigantic whale, and marvelous details including a polar bear and an innovative flag design. Discuss the whaling expedition and discover the many masterful touches of “Thar She Blows!” in the Pirates forum!
This really is one of the toughest showdowns ever. You have to decide weather you would rather be a bloody thirsty scallywag of a Pirate or a finely dressed well spoken of Imperial. The choice is yours, settle the conflict in the Classic-Pirates.com forums.

Crimson Wolf presents the wonderful Black Maiden, a small, SNOT vessel employed by the highest bidder, whose crew is almost entirely composed of crippled misfits. Due to this, watching them attempt a pillaging would be quite a sight!
It'd be intriguing to see how they'd raid a village...
Now discuss the Black Maiden in the Pirates forum!
