I think I saw Brick Sanctuary posting a photo. But not sure if it's all the ones that you're looking for.

I also think I saw posts about some/all of these modulars on Impulse's FB page.

Thanks everyone for the suggestion and replies. Yea, I am aware that QAR and BP production had stopped, hence the sky high price. Maybe I will go for Sea Cow and Imperial Flagship. Plus, RM1k+ for my first Lego is kinda high. Hell, this new hobby is more expensive than Gundam and Hot Toys. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I am generally more interested in classical ship theme. POTC theme suits my taste, but my wallet doesn't agree with it (and so does my wife). I will get Seacow or Imperical instead.

Thanks again everyone. :thumb:

There will be a new pirate ship coming out next year I think. Previously there was a name the ship contest.

The winning name was "The Brick Bounty". Not the best of names, in my opinion.

The custom will lego........Peace... usually it depends on the value. If the value is more than RM500 ( plus shipping ), they can impose tax on you. So it depends on luck. Sometimes you might escape.

Now both Ideas sets are out of stock in Europe.

[attachmentid=4090297]

Word on the street is saying that brick and mortar stores (pardon the pun) still have stock.  I think Lego underestimated the online shopping crowd.  Also, Brickpicker is showing many scalpers sitting on upwards of 10 sets, even up to 45!

I hope Lego can somehow slot in more production of this set soon.  It's not gonna be easy, seeing as production for the holiday season should be right about now.

Frankfurt Lego store is celebrating 5 year anniversary end of August.  Free Lego Store set for purchases above €125.  Anyone willing to sponsor my trip there?  brows.gif [attachmentid=4090307]

This is just crazy and Lego is solely responsible for encouraging this sort of activity. IMHO I think it is fine if a collector keeps a set and it becomes expensive once discontinued, there is speculative element in this and the collector is also taking a risk in terms of picking the right set to collect. But to just goreng the price like this is scandalous! vmad.gif

Sorry to mention Imperial Flagship is also discontinued. tongue.gif

If you just like the classic looking ships then wait for the new one. icon_rolleyes.gif Ships being ships they tend to look pretty much the same release after re-releases...

I'm on mobile version - missed out on everyone's signatures!
I've semi-retired my Hot Toys collecting (future releases). I'm going to LEGO and smaller-scale action figures now. OMG.  icon_question.gif

Customs will hold if the value of your parcel (Lego + shipping cost) is > RM500. That's the general guideline. smile.gif

Unfortunately, I don't think that's the case. Placed a pre-order for some Batman figures from DC Collectibles at RM 100/each. They come in sets of 4. Already pre-ordered Series 2 and 3rd Series coming out Q1 next year. *gulp*

lol! I don't want to find out what are those Batman Figures... nanti kena poison. tongue.gif

Believe or not, the Barbarian is just a cardboard cut-out figure (I think it is CMF Series 11) and was used as part of the packing material! doh.gif
