Hello everyone ! On Ebay I've seen that someone is selling these "Lego female pirate-- very rare--Women of Lego". Does anyone know which sets these girls come from, or if they are just a mix of different parts ? Henrik (24 years ago, 27-Jun-00, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Hello Tom That looks very nice! I've been trying the same thing, and would suggest putting the bottom plate at the top or in the middle instead, this puts the section more in line with the rest of the hull (and makes it a bit more fragile, I (...)
