If you watch the pirate minifig auctions on eBay, you may find this
figure. I have at least one I got from a minifig lot separately from
6277 or 6286 (the cause of which allowed me to not be too worried about
the minifigs being missing from the 6286 which was in the AucZilla 500
sets auction). You may also want to watch eBay for 6277. I've got three
copies, all for a reasonable price (my first in fact was below MSRP). Of
course we should all hope for 6286 and 6277 in the Legends line. I
wonder if TLC would be open to a Legends or Heroes line of minifigs,
though it would require quite a few sets. The following might be a
limited number of sets:
- soldiers (2 red, 2 blue, extra parts so all 4 can be made as soldiers,
or one as an officer)
- crew (red & white striped, blue & white striped, red & black striped,
blue coat w/red & white stripes - for example:
http://www.lugnet.com/fibblesnork/lego/guide/pirates/minifig/bluelaceshirt-3.html
)
- heroes (pirate lady, 6277/6286 torso guy, green vest, 1747 guy [like
in
http://www.lugnet.com/fibblesnork/lego/guide/pirates/minifig/bluecoat-1.html
])
- islanders (1 king kahuka, 1 lady, 2 regular, 1 extra hair [so king
kahuka can be made into a regular islander)
That covers all the figures (well, torsos) I think except the two
captains and the two admirals. Those could be in another set. Oh, it
also doesn't cover the armada figures.
Too bad it just doesn't look like one or two sets could be made which
would satisfy most needs.

| (...) Thanks for the additional tips. I have started trying to keep my eye open for that fig (and a couple of other ones that can be used as generic 18th century civilians) in ebay auctions. So far the only one I saw it in was the one you probably (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jun-01, to lugnet.pirates)
