To determine the winner of our upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean Contest you will be assigned 5 points.  You will then allocate points to the entries you deem worth of winning.

Contest entrants may also allocate 1 point to their own entry!

Visual Overview

So participating in all three will give you a total of 8 points!

And if participating in all three, you may also allocate two of these bonus points to your own entry! So in total you will be able to allocate 3 points to your own entry.

But to claim your bonus point(s) you will need to verify your participation in the respective initiative, so prepare for that!

The Imperial Trading Post

As a steeple of the Imperial Army, The Imperial Trading Post is a great place to catch a view of the sea, or to hold an infamous pirate captive.  There are numerous detailed pictures and it’s an amazing MOC that is worth your view!

Pat's Pirate Ship, it's BIG

There’s the Black Seas Barracuda, or the Black Pearl, or even the Imperial Flagship, but all are dwarfed by the behemoth I present to you today.  Simply referred to as Pat’s Pirate Ship, this has more real estate than Port Royal.  You must see all the detailed pictures in the forum, the size will blow you away.

See all of Pat’s Pirate Ship in the forum.

A screenshot of these excellent instructions.

As you may know, The LEGO Group has made a special build, which you can make by combining the sets London Escape and Whitecap Bay. They only didn’t provide proper instructions, so Eurobricks member Boomchil made his own, put them in a PDF format and shared them on our forum.
