Since I own the latest german dealer's catalog, I can tell you that for certain:
Pirates are Jack-Stone-scaled in 2004. Sets are with many large elements, but
also with a few very nice parts (new pirate flags, maps on 4x4-tiles, chrome
weapon...). Sorry, I'm NOT allowed to upload pictures before mid-december and I
will NOT send pictures by mail. But I would bet we will see the pictures
somewhere in the next days :-)

Let's hope TLC will make a Pirate-theme with minifigs in the future too.

That means no more
regular minifig scale Pirates?

I was convinced after seeing the set numbers on the pirate sets (7070-...) that
the sets would be minifig scaled, because recent minifig-themes (orient
expedition, world city) are all in the 7-series, whereas the new 4-juniors
sets (formerly known as jack stone) have set numbers starting with “4”. The new
“bionicle-castle” sets also fit this reasoning since they are in the
8-series like “old” bionicle. Therefore I was not surprised they were not in
minifig-scale when the pictures popped up.
Guess the logic does not hold for the pirate sets (still hoping it will
though...)
Rick.
