VintageLegoEra Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) HI Everyone! After building the Awesome Black Pearl, here is my other POTC Ship finished Today. IMO, this set is awesome in details and building and i love the sails design. Here are some photos of the Set: http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g464/TamiyaEra/20140627_155219-1_zpsdca7db8c.jpg http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g464/TamiyaEra/20140627_155231-1_zpsa107f7a6.jpg What an amazing design of the rear section of the Ship especially the Big hanging Lantern: PROS: - Many Pieces compared to BP which gave some more time and Joy - Many Details. - New Features. - Excellent Design CONS: -The only CONS i have is The deck is empty. Wished if it has more features and building concepts! Some Remarks i have: - I noticed this set has 2 Version, The one i have is with normal skeleton face and not as per the box and some other set i saw in youtube. Here is mine type: And here is the one from the other Version: Now My Question is, Why 2 versions? and what Else difference between the 2 versions? Would highly appreciate if someone replies with a comparison between the 2 versions ( If Any ) Regards Edited June 29, 2014 by Capt. Stabbin Removed pics that are larger than site guidelines! Quote
Faefrost Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 That is a Fantasy Era Skeleton Head. One of the bad guys from the Castle Fantasy Era line from a few years ago. I've never seen one in this set, but it would not surprise me if a few got mixed in with the regular skeletons somewhere along the line. Quote

I've never seen one in this set, but it would not surprise me if a few got mixed in with the regular skeletons somewhere along the line. Ohh,,,Cos i really went mad when i unpacked the bags as i thought it has to be as per this Head. I kept searching and searching and thought i might have been drop it somewhere. Then i went through the Manual and saw it is the normal Head. So The one with the regular head is the correct one. right? But to be frank, Lego must be more careful about this as this could change the look totally. Thanks Quote
Faefrost Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 The regular Skeleton head is correct. (There are a few subtle variations on some prints of those, that Lego does not really discriminate between in stock. The newer ones are slightly creepier. I don't know if any variants of those have appeared in this set.) But I have never seen that Fantasy Era head mentioned in this set. Maybe it is an early prototype photo? Or someone swapped it out and posted a pic on the Internet for looks? If you prefer that look the Fantasy Skelly heads are pretty easy to come by. Quote

Maybe Lego produces several sets with this Fantasy Era head early their production...after all, it is a nice set whether with this head or not...looooool :) Quote
Dharkan Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 It is practically the same thing. I don't see any reason to make a big fuss about it. Quote
