Description

A small pirate ship

Historically a clipper was a fast, slender sailing ship, and the set translates that idea into a model of around 150 pieces. With three minifigures the crew has room, and the build stays small enough that the ship is ready for the playroom in no time, if not for the water. If you like ships, this is a model you can hold in your hand and use for sea battles on the carpet, not just something to put on a shelf.

Black, red, light grey and yellow

Black leads the colour mix and gives the ship its typical pirate look. Red adds accents, mainly on sails and fittings, while light grey and yellow supply details. Sixty-five distinct part types among 157 pieces is a decent figure, meaning many special shapes are included, for example for the hull, rigging and weapons. For ship builds in particular these pieces carry over well into your own models, such as a tender, a patrol boat or part of a fleet.

Play and collect

Collectors of Pirates I like the set as a companion to larger ships and fortresses from the same period. It is very good for play, because ships at this scale fit easily into a child's hand and nothing snaps off quickly. As a source of spare parts it is in demand for its hull elements and sail mounts. It also makes a fine gift for someone interested in pirates, especially if a big ship on the shelf is not wanted right away.

Parts list and rebuilds

The full parts list with colours and quantities is on this page. It helps when checking a used copy and when buying individual pieces to fill gaps. The What can I build? tool shows which other models you can make with this set and the bricks you already own. With ships that is worth doing, since the same stock quickly turns into boats, rafts or small harbours that can stand beside the original.
