On Fri, 8 Oct 1999, Steve Bliss (<37fe1cee.86097904@...gnet.com>) wrote at 16:36:47 (...) You can lash them together in various ways, just like the real thing. I've only got the idea in my head at the moment, but you should be able to use multiple (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Personal Pirates Trivia
 
(...) I'm pretty pathetic with a mere three extension RBR. I'll have another extension coming whenever my swag arrives from Auczilla 10. If you want to see one with (counting on fingers) 6 extensions, check Stephen Gabriel's page: (URL) the ship in (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Locally (Norwich UK) I've found 2 6289s, at least 5 6280s and a 6279 recently all at list price. John (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Mast options
 
(...) Hmmm, there's a mast base, a thick lower section with a built-in base, a medium section, a skinny top section, and a "technic" section (the Armada Flagship uses this). I haven't really experimented with trying to get a precise size. I tend to (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Mast options
 
I think I already know the answer to these questions, but I'm hoping I'm wrong: It seems like the pirate-ship masts go together only one way: base-mast, octagonal "crow's nest" platform, then the upper-mast. Is there any other useful way to put (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Personal Pirates Trivia
 
Quick question: what is the longest ship you've built using the Pirates hull pieces? I've only got just a bit of Pirates stuff, I'm working on lengthening my RBR with two extra hull sections (for a total of 4 mid-sections, plus the bow and stern). (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: 6289 : RBR
 
(...) If you are reasonably patient, around $80-$90. If you are impatient, the price can rise to $100-$120 or more. Some fools....ummmmm, avid collectors are paying $160 for European versions with shooting cannons. They were still on sale last year (...)

  Re: 6289 : RBR
 
(...) That's a tough one. It has recently been relatively available, but retail stocks are probably depleted (DYA doesn't have them any more for example), so I would expect the price to start rising. Good candidate for an auction if you are selling. (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.pirates)

  Re: Finding Sets in Stores!
 
(...) I think you got lucky. I found a few Kahukas at a Kay-Bee in February, and an Imperial Outpost (!!!) missing the rowboat at a Service Merchandise in January for $12.
