Welcome to Singapore!

Only two days before the deadline, Eurobricks member Burman came up with this nice MOC called The Singapore Situation. It depicts the movie scene in which the pirate crew, hidden below the floorboards, throws Elizabeth and Barbossa swords at the mention of the word “weapons”.

Look at that beautiful little fishing shop!

Entering this Royal Colony is very hard, especially for pirates. At least, that’s how it seems, because outside the walls are various shops and baithouses with secret tunnels under the wall. Have a look at this excellent MOC and welcome our new member Sabarrus.

"Now, that's the very question Jack wants answered. Bad enough, even, to go visit...her."

Another great entry for the LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean contest! And another famous scene. Tia Dalma’s Shack: a shack in a distant part of the swamp on Pantano River in Cuba. This house isn’t only famous because of Tia Dalma, but also because it contains the notorious jar of dirt in the movie. Take a look at this fine piece of LEGO-art and share your thoughts.

These cages we're in...weren't built 'til after we got here.

With a contest in full swing, the MOC’s keep showing up. Fat Tony brings us his version of the hanging cages from the second film, “Dead man’s Chest”. There is more to be seen in the Pirate Forum, including more to this MOC.

Performing for their number one fan!

SlyOwl is known for his great MOC’s and this is no exception. The Napoleon Bonepartes usually have sellout shows, it looks like this time was no exception. They look like they would be right at home in Tortuga.
