  Re: 2004 Pirates .... Creator/Jack Stone figures?
 
Hi Daniel, (...) The large ship (set 7075) contains a big element (as big as a BURP) which has one or two windows in it. But it's not to tell from the picture whether this window is an extra piece or not. BTW: I would estimate the large hull (...) (21 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.year.2004, lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: 2004 Castle Products
 
Hi Andrzej, (...) Since I own the latest german dealer's catalog, I can tell you that for certain: Pirates are Jack-Stone-scaled in 2004. Sets are with many large elements, but also with a few very nice parts (new pirate flags, maps on 4x4-tiles, (...) (21 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general)
 
  2004 Pirates .... Creator/Jack Stone figures?
 
There's some discussion about 2004 sets here: (URL) ran it through Babelfish.altavista.com and was dismayed that the author appears to indicate that the new Pirate sets will have Creator-style figures (Jack-Stone-like scale and design). Can someone (...) (21 years ago, 20-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.year.2004)
 
  FWD: OurCon: BrickWars, Moonbases, Pirates
 
Hello GLUG! A few of you might remember me from BrickFest this past year. We met regarding ways to try to have more events that included Lego® related gaming. I am currently involved in helping to organize just such a thing for OurCon, a local (...) (21 years ago, 18-Nov-03, to lugnet.org.glug, lugnet.gaming, lugnet.pirates)
 
  Master and Commander
 
For all you fans of Napoleonic era sailing ships, you should not miss Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. Patrick O'Brian fans will be pleased by the anal-retentive accuracy that the movie tried for - the movie, like the books, is more (...) (21 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Mini pirate ship
 
(...) That's the first thing I tried when I built the ship, but I didn't like the look of it being just horizontal. I like the angle from the hinge, even if the hinge makes it a bit tall for a forecastle. Thanks, Peter (21 years ago, 15-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.fun.holiday, lugnet.build.microscale)
 
  Re: Mini pirate ship
 
(...) Neat little ship! If I may, I'd suggest trying a jumper on the front two studs with a...what do you call it... U-clip? Much like you would do for a Cutter. Here's a picture of what I mean; apologies to Jason Mantor. (URL) (21 years ago, 15-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.fun.holiday, lugnet.build.microscale)
 
  Re: Mini pirate ship
 
(...) Thanks. (...) With the 1x2 jumper plate, it just juts out too far in front if it's on the front studs. I liked the look better this way. However, I should probably put a 1x2 plate between the hinge and the jumper to put it a bit closer to the (...)

  Re: Mini pirate ship

  Re: 10040 Black Sea Baracuda
 
(...) Stern ;-) (...) IIRC, it's okay as long as it's not too tight. On my shortened BSB, I've got more string left, so it's looped around the outside lamp brackets and attached back onto itself (below the boom) with a rolling hitch. And tensioned (...)

  Re: 10040 Black Sea Baracuda
 
(...) Much much later ... 10040 Finally got around to putting this together this - It does look great when finished. The pirates though are likely to be overwhelmed by the massed ranks of imperial soldiers who have got fed up waiting for their own (...) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates)

  Mini pirate ship
 
For MichLUG's appearance at the Detroit-area Festival of Trees, I thought a mini pirate ship would be a fun ornament. (URL) it'll have to be a good glue job to keep this on the tree. After mutilating both ends of an axle trying to drill a hole for a (...) (21 years ago, 8-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.fun.holiday, lugnet.build.microscale)

  Re: New Castle/Pirate Sets???
 
(...) Nice that lego is going back to one of the great legoland themes, especially since the quality of design is now on the upswing in many areas. Although I admire sets like land busters etc., minifig based sets are what made me a lego fan. (...) (21 years ago, 8-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates)

For NWBrickCon, my wife helped me build some bases and islands for the Pirate Game. This is one of the best IMO. More will come later, when it's not 1 in the morning... (URL) (21 years ago, 4-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle, FTX) ! 
 
  New Castle/Pirate Sets???
 
Hey all, I've been hearing (or maybe that is more accurately reading) rumors of new Castle and Pirate sets on fbtb.net and CCC, but haven't heard any discussion here. Here's what I have heard: -An indeterminate number or smaller Castle sets -A large (...) (21 years ago, 3-Nov-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)
