Read This Review Before Buying LEGO Pirates Of The Caribbean Black Pearl!
When the first wave of POTC sets came out in Might there was a gaping hole in the collection. While the Queen Anne’s Revenge was a fairly cool ship, exactly where was the Black Pearl, Captain Jack Sparrow’s beloved ship?! Well that gaping hole has lastly been filled using the arrival of 4184 The Lego Black Pearl. I took some time last weekend to construct the Pearl with my ten year old son Connor. This evaluation is from two perspectives: The jaded, overly critical analysis of a lengthy time LEGO enthusiast, and mine.
As we started creating we noticed some thing unusual. Only one minifig in the first bag. In our home it is a long standing tradition that everyone but dad builds the minifigures, even my wife gets into it. Usually I’m a few pages into the instructions before they’re all built. As we continued to construct we found there was a single minifig in every of the six bags. Not truly great or bad, just unusual. Connor was impressed at the stage where we had to flip over the hull to put the 2×2 round boat bottoms on that the hull laid flat on the table.
I was much more impressed using the clever reinforcement of the masts and the connection of the jib boom. The last ship I built was 6243 Brickbeard’s Bounty and also the rigging on that was always wonky. The Lego Black Pearl 2011 has pretty sturdy rigging overall. I was pleased to see that the cannons fire. I’m old sufficient to have witnessed the declawing of the toy industry. When I was a kid the toys were correctly harmful, from the scolding hot Thingmaker towards the launching missiles of the Colonial Viper. Then things changed and toys got “safe”, fingers weren’t burned, cannons stopped firing and kids had been sad. Because of this I’m always just just a little surprised and pleased when a toy will actually fire a projectile. So Connor and I spent just a little time playing with the two cannons and shooting 1×1 round bricks around the kitchen. By the way, that was not a typo, I did say two. In spite of the reality that there are six gun ports on the Black Pearl you will find only two cannons included. I’ve to say the box art is really a small deceptive also, featuring both cannons on one side of the ship, leaving their starboard side completely defenseless. The figurehead is really a nice touch, with her small black wings.
All the figures are quite nice, and it is a good amount for a set and ship of this size. I don’t know if the figures alone would prompt anybody to buy the set, but the hardcore pirate fans out there just may.
Jack Sparrow. This figure was an instant classic from the moment it first appeared in prototype form at Comic Con in 2010. If I’m not mistaken this is a version of Jack we haven’t seen prior to with a combination of a printed overcoat and no hat. He has double sided printing on his torso, front printing on his legs and printing on his hat. As with all the other sets he comes with his compass (plus an additional one).
