Eldorado Fortress
Christmas present. This will pair well with the Pirates of Barracuda Bay set from 2020. This is a modern remake of one of the original pirates sets from 1989.
One LEGO Shop order, three Gift with Purchase sets. The bags are dubbed “Add-On Packs”, i.e. collections of loosely themed parts, one pirates and the other Halloween. I’m excited for the Halloween pack because it has a part I have been waiting almost two years for.
Pirates of Barracuda Bay

Pirates in Space
Q: What’s better than LEGO Space?

Day 8: Skeleton Crew
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 8: Skeleton Crew (6232), 1996. Another small pirate set. I dig the skeleton in the Conquistador helmet.
Day 7: Pirate Mini Figures (Sea Mates)
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 7: Pirate Mini Figures (Sea Mates) (6251), 1989. Continuing the Pirate theme, this minifig pack came with three pirates and two Imperial soldiers. Captain Red Beard with his hook hand and pegleg is one of my all-time favorite minifigs.
