I got a flagship and I suspected mine was a Japanese set since the catalog
that came with it is in Japanese (at least I think it is Japanese). The
canon
on mine also fires and is different than the cannon on my Cross Bone Clipper

I got my 6280 is two days: Ordered on Monday, delivered to my office on

time I ordered (about 9:30 AM EST) she said there were only 13 left. I
don't
know how many they started with.

| (...) How odd. Somehow I don't think the pirates line did too well in Japan as here in the UK I can currently buy the huge islanders set - don't ask me the name or number, I cannot remember - for 20UKP in Tesco's. This is the set with two 32x32 (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)
