@@szymofilu3517 I think the main reason for the pirates sets failing was the big ship looked too similar to the one before (they have a very similar name, the same colours and nearly the same sails) and the second "big" Set was kinda "bad" because it wasn't what it said in the name. The Soldier's Fort was a little dock with a tower. I don't know how this was considered a "Fort", but a Fort to me needs to be... well... fortified. Some of the smaller Sets were neat though.
I mean it’s price per piece count is good, it is a two in one set, has the classic feel of the original pirates theme, an updated Captain Redbeard and can have a updated version of the black sea barracuda. I personally think it’s worth it.
So you are trying to find an excuse why a perfect piece per count set isn't worth it that much, but you see a 1600 pieces A wing that cost the same and have no doubts?
I guess the difference is you have a lot of spare pieces so not all of them get used. For what it’s worth though I’d rather have this set than the A-Wing and I’m a star wars fan
@@Tom-bn6pr Except, the fact that it has many extra pieces gives you everthemore ability to use your imagination and create other things with the set, making it much more than worth it.
Honestly $200 is almost too little for how incredible this set is. We won't really see pirates anytime soon/at all, its a 2-in-1 and best yet you don't really need to disassemble everything to get the ship out of it. The main mast is sooooo bloody tall too. This thing easily towers over probably 90% of all sets out.
Having just put it together I can say its a fantastic deal and one of the best ever sets Lego has made. HUGE set (I was surprised how massive it is) fully detailed inside and out. Great to display or play with. Plus the other thing that surprised me is they give you TONS of extra little guns, swords, plants and seashells and what not. Well at least I got a ton of extras.
Great! Can't wait to get this!! Hopefully soon. Is it apt bigger than a modular building? Are the inside details good and easy to access or is it more of a display piece?
It’s a 10/10 for me. Best LEGO set ever for me, I love the pirates theme and I love tropical beach scenes with palm trees and wooden stuff. Also the OPTION to transform to the ship is nice, but it’s not something I’m going to do.
To me personally, the classic pirate sets from system are the best ones ever made. Nothing has ever come close to it, second to that set are the johnny thunder sets.
@@ofiterpunte I just got back into buying Lego with the Blacksmith Shop on Feb 1. When the Amelia Earhart free gift set came out on March 6th, I ordered my first Barracuda Bay. Working on the first few bags right now. Looking at the parts, it's worth $225. Barracuda Shipyard is a work of art. What a great MOC. That's how Lego likes to design; each set is worth buying twice. Stimulus check meant I could order a second one with a second free gift. I am blessed.
You emphasize so much than when the ship is built-up, you're left with a lot of parts - but they that can be used in a cool and creative way. Some MOCers already designed some more compact and functional hideouts from those parts ...and provided free instructions! When I'll finally get the set, I'm definitely gonna try to build my own custom hideout, maybe spice it up with some extra parts.
It’s so nostalgic to me even though I wasn’t around when it was in stores but because my uncle has it and I can look at it and used to play with it every summer for a month
I think the beach section is useful with the completed ship. Just buy some extra azure and extend the water so the ship can dock next to the island and then you have a completed scene.
While most of my Lego sets are still in my parent's basement, the one I've always kept with me is the Black Seas Barracuda. It's missing its sails and has a couple of cracked pieces, but I've loved it since forever. Just picked up this set and I love it.
To be fair, the first time I saw the sign, I thought there was an "i" in there as well - read it as "Josie's Inn". It took another look (and listening to a different review) before I realized it's "Jose".
He also must not have looked at the announcement video or read the instructions of looked or read a lot of other things he not only didn't know it was Jose and not Josie, but is named after the original Ideas' designer's dad who got him into LEGO.
this island part can be rebuild perfectly into an island dock that ship parks with and is loaded with crates of food and barrels. Then you can probably connect it to some pirate hideout. Btw i took out the beds (as on these ships there were no beds) and put in there cannons, while other interior stays (except the wall). So you have a port a fully functional ship with cannons and very very few parts left.
I have only one gripe with this set. It comes with 3 canons when the ship has a 4-canon broadside. Other than that, this set is an absolute winner in every category. That's really my only nitpick. It's definitely geared towards older builders, though. It just has too much going on for kids with all the crazy attention to detail and the set is a bit fragile so its playability for kids is a tad low in my opinion.
Easily one of the best things I bought last year. I've also got myself some custom tattered and torn sails (laser cut) from eBay for the shipwreck form. As for the asking price, I mean, it's a nostalgia trip for people in their 30s and 40s. Furthermore, the option to turn it into a ship or a shipwreck island makes it a great display because you can keep switching back and forth when you get bored of one or the other.
In my opinion this is THE Set. Absolutly worth every buck. Some might say the price to piece ratio isn't as great, but it is sufficient and the set is gigantic.
@@JohnSoapMacTavish-tb6pk It's something I heard about this set, that the price per piece ratio is bad, compared with e.g. the IDEAS Treehouse. However in the end it doesnt matter much for this awesome model.
Yeah for me personally, the original ship from 89 was one of my first lego sets and along with one train set also from the 80’s is my most nostalgic set. Built it with my dad, and I was a massive fan of pirates and pirate themed movies at the time so this is something I’ve been begging for. I really wanted a reissue of the old set they put so much love into this and it really really captures the original set’s heart and soul so it’s a must for me and probably for many who remember the original set. It was the first ever pirate ship lego did, pirates was a brand new theme and it was magical! I miss the comics they did on the theme too. So glad the manual has a bit of that! 🙏 because it was such a special time and memory for both my dad and me he actually just ordered this for me. I’ll keep it on display as the ship but I’ll build the island first for fun and for the experience. I think that’s very cool, you get to sort of build two sets! Nice video my man 🙏
i had the original when i was a kid and it was destroyed in the northridge quake i was devastated my mom tossed the instructions so i wasn't able to rebuild it and the pieces slowly disappeared into other projects. to this day the only pieces i still have are the original hull plates. im going to buy this set it is a perfect design for what happened to my ship i might even try to build an off shore wreck using the old hull pieces.
I spent the weekend building this set, and I can say it is absolutely worth the price! It was a very enjoyable build, all the more so for being a remake of the favorite set from my childhood. I haven't converted it to the full ship yet, but I can tell from the individual parts that it is an incredible remake. I described it to someone as if the original Black Seas Barracuda were a paint by numbers picture, someone took it as inspiration to paint a work of art.
Oh, and I am so gutting out the below decks area (the inn), knocking out the windows, and arming this thing with eight cannons. Twice the firepower of the original!
It's absolutely worth it. I ordered it like 2 minutes after it was released and it's such a magnificent ship and an awesome island full of nostalgia. Bought it specifically for the ship, and it's definitely the most well made ship Lego has ever made, and it's definitely not a waste. Also, the island isn't useless once the ship is built. The beauty of Lego is that you can do whatever you want with it, and there is a lot to do stuff with. Definitely a must buy if you are even considering it.
Same here, bought it almost immediately at midnight on the first of April. The ship is exactly what I wanted. Always saw the original Barracuda ship in old catalogues but my parents wouldn't buy it, so this was my chance to get it anyway
Yes I just got the island on the side with the ship sitting in middle it looks amazing. Well werth the 200. Now ree saleing 300 to 350/ on secend hand ree sale wow. Its only bean two weeks. ..
I completely disagree with the statement of "$200 for a ship plus a lot of leftover wasted parts". Just look at classic lego sets like "forbidden island" and "rock island refuge" and "sabre island". It seems the Caribbean in the 1700s was some kind of wasteland with endless azure sea, sandy beaches, palm treas and makeshift settlements, filled with people who came in the hope of finding treasure but were literally starving. So the fact the castaways only could build things from the Barracuda itself (because the island was so poor and so deserted) is some kind of hommage and one big running joke. And if your imagination cannot fill the poor leftover parts and you cannot build sandy beaches, sharp rocks and barren vegetation, it means only one thing: lego pirates is not your theme.
I won’t lie, bought this set to recreate the ship only for nostalgia. Once I got to step 15 to take apart the shipwreck I decided to hold off for a week, it’s now been almost a month the shipwreck is one the best display sets ever imo!
I love this set. I own one, and its sealed because i dont have a good spot to build and display it. What i like about this one is that its “open”. There are not too many things happening where your eyes cant reach without opening the set, its great for display. Most big legos need you to move it or tear it apart so you can see the stuff that is hidden. And this doesnt happen here. Beautiful and perfect for display. Most pieces are there and you wont need to move them. I wish lego made more models that the “action” is happening outside like this one. If you know a set that got at least 2000 pieces and is in production let me know please.
I don't believe it is a waste if you just want the ship. You could easily use the island as a dock for loading goods and whatnot, or something like that. I don't know who would want just the boat without taking into consideration the fact that it would come with a large island build as well, which has much room for imagination, perhaps even equal to that of the actual ship of you ask me.
I love this set and how they made it incredible. If I had that set, I would want to add the white statue parrot with the skeleton and have the red and green parrot next to the blue and yellow parrot. I say it is worth the money but any more in price would cause many to reconsider. I think they nailed the price with this build.
Zippy Cohen it’s slightly larger I would say than, Assembly square. Tbh the barricuda island seems smaller than I thought, while the ship is much larger than I thought
I'm more of a display guy so I'll probably keep it in shipwreck mode. I'm having trouble deciding between this set and the ideas treehouse. What do you guys think?
i bought the set a couple days ago and it came in like 6 days (i live in canada so that is really fast), i used a couple of my spare pieces and made it a dock and added some british from the pirates of the caribbean sets. it was probably an extra 150 pieces so big but if you have a lot normal plate pieces you should be able to use the dock pieces. :)
Barracuda bay: 2545 pieces €200. UCS A-wing: 1673 pieces €200. You get almost 1000 more pieces (and minifigs) for the same price. I know Lego Star-wars by it self is more expensive then other thema's but wtf is this difference.
Lol great video I was going to ask a question on your live stream if you could reply that would be great I am getting the Dorito Tie Fighter and A wing from this wave of the rise of skywalker are they worth it thx
Today we can already say that Barracuda Bay is the most beautiful pirate ship ever made by Lego. It will be worth over $1000 one day. The island can be completed to grandiose proportions through other lego sets.
Fun fact: they gave all the pirates backstories and names. I don’t know them all because I don’t own the set, but the captain is named Redbeard (3 guesses how he got that name lol) and the opposing color guys are named Port and Starboard, the nautical terms for left and right respectively.
This is the first time I've really watched someone go from bay to boat, and I'm surprised just how much goes into it. Maybe even a little too much? Idk.
I have this set and most of the placing of the boxes and barrels on the deck of the black seas barracuda really isn't necessary and cuts down the time to transition between barracuda bay and the black seas barracuda a lot. I keep the sails on the foremast rolled up with the two extra strings that came with the set and the rear sail mostly assembled when in the barracuda bay mode.
I finally got my set....I remember as a kid really wanting the original ship from the early 90s but it was way to expensive, so to me it's worth every penny.
In all honesty, if I had the funds (and a time machine) I would’ve got this. I love the Lego Pirates theme, and never got any because I got into Lego a while after it was retired.
I can always use my Brick Beard Bounty for my pirate ship to put with the island for more fun which I am sure it would go well. Lucky for me, I did buy that set when it first came out around 2009 for my pirate ship since I never owned the original Black Seas Barracuda.
Are you able to remove any of the top floor parts when its ship form to see below deck? Or do you have to break it into the separate pieces to get a side view?
It's just amazing what a huge set you get here compared to what you would get for the same price from one of the lines like Star Wars where they obviously have to pay licensing fees
I am pretty sure I have that Pirate Ship 6285 but unfortunately it is in many pieces and the box was destroyed. If I remember correctly it would not stay together it would break apart.
Lego really needs to Reboot the Classic Lego themes like Pirates, Space, and Castle
Cameron Playz they tried with castle and pirates. And they failed
@@szymofilu3517 I think the main reason for the pirates sets failing was the big ship looked too similar to the one before (they have a very similar name, the same colours and nearly the same sails) and the second "big" Set was kinda "bad" because it wasn't what it said in the name.

You can easily make something nice from the bay with the extra parts!
Pirates was my favourite theme as a kid so this is a must
$200 is a bargain. It is absolutely outstanding.
Barracuda bay: 2545 pieces €200. UCS A-wing: 1673 pieces €200. You get almost 1000 more pieces (and minifigs) for the same price. I know Lego Star-wars by it self is more expensive then other thema's but wtf is this difference.
Disney licensing fees.
@@gbrlep Yes i know that but still its ridiculous how much of a difference there is here.
Lol great video I was going to ask a question on your live stream if you could reply that would be great I am getting the Dorito Tie Fighter and A wing from this wave of the rise of skywalker are they worth it thx
Lego Boba Fett great thx dide
Lego Boba Fett i meant dude not dide
Lego Boba Fett 👍 Looking forwars to getting them
Lego Boba Fett nice dude thx cant wait
the set was out of stock in 2 days , are you kidding me . this is gold.
They need to bring back Vikings! That’s a theme I grew up with that had a lot of versatility as far as types of sets and characters
I love the Viking's armor
Today we can already say that Barracuda Bay is the most beautiful pirate ship ever made by Lego. It will be worth over $1000 one day. The island can be completed to grandiose proportions through other lego sets.
the sharper colors play to the nostalgia.
Which is better ideas treehouse or this set I can buy only one pls tell fast befor any retires
this one is better
I have this set, and I must say it is really fun as a display item and as a play set
Can you transform the ship from complete form to broken down
Tbh i am much better in a accent of ye seven seas. I’d say: Yarr me mateys we be lookin’ at ye piratess o’ baracuda bay.
Yeah, ryan don't know what he's doin anymore
Awesome Pirate Playset! I like it and I like your pirate hat too!
Time shouldn’t be factor with LEGO, as long as your enjoying yourself 🙌🏻 great review can’t wait to grab one !
All you have to do is dismantle the ship in a reverse manner by going through the steps backwards from 30 to 1.
Fun fact: they gave all the pirates backstories and names. I don’t know them all because I don’t own the set, but the captain is named Redbeard (3 guesses how he got that name lol) and the opposing color guys are named Port and Starboard, the nautical terms for left and right respectively.
The guy with tattoos name is tattooga
This is the first time I've really watched someone go from bay to boat, and I'm surprised just how much goes into it. Maybe even a little too much? Idk.
I have this set and most of the placing of the boxes and barrels on the deck of the black seas barracuda really isn't necessary and cuts down the time to transition between barracuda bay and the black seas barracuda a lot. I keep the sails on the foremast rolled up with the two extra strings that came with the set and the rear sail mostly assembled when in the barracuda bay mode.
Me: sees how long it takes to transform it...
Also me: ahhhhhhh, no
I finally got my set....I remember as a kid really wanting the original ship from the early 90s but it was way to expensive, so to me it's worth every penny.
This does put a smile on my face
I bet Mike can send this to me!!!
REALLY WHOS MIKE!!
lol
this.. is not even slightly funny
YES WHO THE HELL IS MIKE!
batvaleska u r a party pooper
I had the older version and it’s definitely better as a pirate ship but I love this as pirate bay.
I like this type of "review." Could you do a "Should You Buy" on the UCS A-wing?
In all honesty, if I had the funds (and a time machine) I would’ve got this. I love the Lego Pirates theme, and never got any because I got into Lego a while after it was retired.
You can still get it for a little markup second hand in box

I can always use my Brick Beard Bounty for my pirate ship to put with the island for more fun which I am sure it would go well. Lucky for me, I did buy that set when it first came out around 2009 for my pirate ship since I never owned the original Black Seas Barracuda.
Are you able to remove any of the top floor parts when its ship form to see below deck? Or do you have to break it into the separate pieces to get a side view?
The inside is hard to access in ship form
My only complaint is that they got rid of the monkey
8:51 is a nice little nod to pirates/islanders set 6262
That’s a cool set and a cool vid!
I love this set so much. Top 5 sets I own.
It's just amazing what a huge set you get here compared to what you would get for the same price from one of the lines like Star Wars where they obviously have to pay licensing fees
I think Joses is the original designer's father and he putted it in the sign as an easter egg
I'm pretty sure I also heard that in another review or something like that
Yeah that’s true
I chocked on my water when you said “ahoy matie” with you dumb pirate hat lol
Ryan is brickworld Chicago still happening?
I don’t have much of a choice when it comes to not transforming it because I have no idea at all where I put the extra sails away too
Thanks for show the model i think is a good price :)
is there gonna be a vlog today?
SentinelLogan I think he likes beans
The way he pronounced Jose is the whitest thing he's probably done so far lol
Except José is a name both in Portugal and Spain, two white countries.
So, if anything, it's the most American thing he's probably done so far lol
You do realize that name originated in Europe right?
I like this ALOT, I so need this. It gives me super nostalgia rose tinted glasses. lol.
This set looks awesome
Welcome to the Pirate Ship collectors club! Is addictive!
I'm 41 years old and can't believe I'm watching a video about LEGO 😅 my dream as a kid it was to get the original pirate ship, still dreaming 😭
Can you do a comparison of this and the creator one?
I am pretty sure I have that Pirate Ship 6285 but unfortunately it is in many pieces and the box was destroyed. If I remember correctly it would not stay together it would break apart.
