(...) Junk, as in the name of the boat, not an assessment of it's qualities. The battens (long wooden reinforcements in the sails running from the mast to the sail's trailing edge) are hinted at by the points on the sail's edge. Very cool, but this (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) A close-up of the set (which was leaked by Marz) can be seen here: (URL) it is a fairly nice ship, with multiple applications if necessary. The Chinese Sailors look pretty nice in their helmets. The boat itself has funny looking sides, this (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Isn't that a chinese boat? I don't know the English name for it, in Portuguese it's "junco". Pedro (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.pirates)

Richie- Thanks for the comments. I'm just waiting for the next incarnation of the Famous Mister Snottler to appear--they've been getting to be quite amazing, and given the extreme flare of the bows on those types of warships I'm looking forward to (...)

Mattias- Thanks so much for the feedback--I think selective compression plus the minifig scale meant that some details (for example, using triple TT instead of the real ship's quads) were in fact sacrificed. But I'm sure it would be very possible (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats)

(...) Truly magnificent, Lindsay. The LEGO scaling is amazing, the attention to detail superb. (One of my favourite details are your spoked wheel drums. I've already built a few - it's always good to find new uses for common (and seldom used parts). (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats)
