Same here. I am not senior, nor particularly wealthy. I have to make do
with a couple of the re-released Armada Flagships and That Islander One (tm).

To me, as a builder (keeping in mind I don't own either of them), they're
worth about the same. And, as I have previously commented, I would have
prefered Eldorado Fortress to any of them. This is not to take away from
their cool design and good-lookiness, it's just I can already get large
pirate ship pieces from Lego but I can't get Imperials or base pieces.
But that's just my builder side speaking, of course. If the 6285 does end
up being re-released I'll probably pick one up. But I have a sneaky
suspicion that it will be Black Falcon Fortress. It edged out in the
Brickshelf poll, and I imagine it will also win on the dreaded 'kiddies' vote.
Which isn't too bad. Grey wall pieces are good, even for a pirate :)
