Pirates of Barracuda Bay

I've always loved pirates. I loved Pirates of the Caribbean as a kid. I wasn't around for the original Pirates sets from the 80's and 90's, but always looked at them in awe. I finally got the chance to experience the Pirates theme with this set. It's one of my favorite sets of all time. The number of details and intricacy and care put into the build is incredible. The fact that it transforms from an island to a ship …

Pre-Release Thoughts I wasn't very interested in this set upon the time of its reveal. I thought i was just another IDEAS set and I also didn't have much space in my collection. My birthday happened though, and I decided that this was the one big set I wanted. Build Experience I definitely had a great time building this model. The strings were not a problem, thankfully, because I know we all HATE string in LEGO sets.…

cette boite est magnifique, le bateau est entiérement aménagé et l'ile rend très bien même sans le bateau dessus. Seul point négatif c'est le fait qu'il faille changer pas mal de choses pour passer du bateau à la baie. (il y a aussi quelque références que je ne vais pas divulguer ici.)

This was one of the most fun LEGO sets that I have ever built. It has tons of easter egg throwbacks to the original Pirates theme, and was an interesting and creative build. My daughter absolutely loved building it with me, and it has appeal to both adult and child fans of LEGO (although it's probably too challenging for younger kids without adult assistance, since parts of the build are somewhat complicated).

I just finished building this, the largest and most complex Lego set that I own. There's honestly very little I can say about it that hasn't already been said, but I need to tell someone about it, so I'm writing this review anyway. This set is incredible, and building it and playing with it are as close as I've come to recapturing the joy and wonder that Lego brought to my childhood. I have many smaller Pirates sets …

While this set brings back some great memories of the original Barracuda, and its island design is great, as a pirate ship it could do with some work. There are 8 windows for cannons, but only 3 cannons supplied? It is difficult to separate and reconnect the pirate ship. And NO PLANK??! What kind of pirate ship doesn't have a plank!?! I have since customised it to make it a better pirate ship, and not have the ship b…
