|
|
I'm looking at getting into pirates and am trying to figure out just how many different sets of bow and stern sections there are, and which ones are used in which sets? Are there any hulls that are considered generally better or worse than others? (...) (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Hi Legofans, I need some pieces to complete my #6270 Forbidden Island. I tried Lego Consumer Affairs, but they didn't have most of the pieces I asked for and the others were too expensive.

(...) It's always a tossup between 6285 Black Seas Barracuda and 6277 Imperial Trading Post for me. 6285 is absolutely the best ship, and what would pirates be without ships. On the other hand, 6277 is a beautiful little port with a nifty little (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
