This set was re released back in 2002 as 10040....but very rear now la....try e bay...You can see this set on display at brickboys times square too.....
Hi Designer, thanks for your reply.

Do you know how much brickboy time square is selling it?
I believe that if i purchase from Ebay, the price would be cheaper. However, I have to bear the risk of missing parts and faded paints..
I don't think lego is going to release this ship again, at least not in the near future. Should have bought it last time, but back then I was only a student, how can I afford...
With the movie POTC3 showing now, why won't lego take this golden opportunity to bring back the pirate theme? They can for sure make a fortune from this theme. Now the castle theme and space theme are back. I wonder what takes lego so long time to bring back their once very famous and hot selling pirate theme.
From what I seen. lego pirate fans are smaller in number if compare to castle fans. Maybe that's why lego does not see it as a potential market.
Sorry for the rants.....
