JMBricklayer Pirate Ship Building Sets for Adults, Gorgeous Royal Fleet Ship with Tiered Design, Attractive Pirate Toys Building Blocks Pirate Ship Display, Gifts for Teens Adults(2830 Pieces)

For the money, this set is well worth it, hell at twice the price it's still cheaper than a Lego set of this size. (Though I did get mine on sale for $105) WHAT YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW: Yes the quality of the brick are good. Not as precise as Lego, but they are they are 1000 times better than the no name brands, and for the most part they do go together well. Just a little tight or lose sometimes, more tight than ever lose. This is my second JMBricklayer product, unlike the first one this had no missing pieces, though 4 were damaged, one short shot, one just broken, and due to the tight packaging both 16x16 plate were warped so bad they couldn't be used. Like the other major brands they do offer free replacements. You just have to jump through a few more hoops to get them. Taking pictures of the actual instructions (no screen shots) to circle the page, step, and part that is missing/damaged, giving a receipt to prove you actually bought the set. They don't have part numbers or an inventory at the end of the instructions to make it easier to just tell them I'm missing this piece. Be warned coming from China they can take a long time to get to you, both times mine took a month to get to me. The instructions were easy to follow until the very end. The sails are hard to tell apart and you may spend some time trying to figure out which one goes where. Speaking of the sails, you're going to have to spend some extra time ironing them out. Due to the tight packaging, the come folded and wrinkled, a little mist of water and an iron takes care of this, and they are as good as new. As for the overall design of the ship, it could have used a little more time in the oven. The poop deck doesn't come off all that easily to provide access to the captains cabin. The main deck is split in a poor location, right through one of the cannon ports. Making the mounting of that cannon a little precarious and incapable of staying in place when you remove either side of the deck. The ladder from the lower gun deck to the upper gun deck is attached to the bottom of the upper gun deck so that you can't lay it flat on the table when removed. The capstan doesn't have a way to lock in place when the anchors are raised so they fall back down immediately upon release. For detail it's a little sparse in the interior, though I consider that almost a plus, leaving you plenty of options for customization. Grab you extra parts and start decorating the captains cabin, add some creates and cannon balls. Throw in a few cots for the crew. Add a crew lol. This is really more of a display piece than a play set, though with some modifications it can definitely be turned into one, and like I said at the beginning, the price makes it to where you're not going to feel anxiety at letting your child actually play with it and lose a piece or three. It's probably never going to go up in value like Lego sets. But if you're buying sets for investment, you're probably not reading this review. Get it for your kids to play with, or as a really nice looking display piece.

Absolutely outstanding. This set was a lot of fun to build and even a little bit challenging. For a third-party company, this gives one of the bigger Lego sets a run for its money. Super detailed and enjoyable build, instructions are great and had no problems or missing pieces. Absolutely would buy this again without hesitation.

It was a fun build, some of the parts are slightly inconsistent (for example if one piece was a little loose try it with a different piece until find a snug fit) but nothing that prevented me from completing the build. No parts were missing but there are no extra pieces. My only real complaint would be the sails were folded in the box and I will need to iron the creases out of them.

It looked great and the price was amazing, then I started putting it together and the price suddenly made sense. I feel that the money I spent on this would have been better spent, if I had used it to start a fire. This is complete garbage! The instructions were just horrible, tiny pictures of confusing construction, impossible at time to decode. I literally had to look at the box picture to figure things out. The pieces do not fit together, they will look correct then just pop apart like you are using two different sets, from different companies. Rods do not fit correctly through designated holes pieces do not click or lock together. Absolutely nothing about this thing was fun or pleasant. Seriously save your money, this is complete garbage.

This has been such a fun build!!! Sooooo many pieces making for hours of entertainment and relaxation. Super super super fun and looks incredible when finished!!

First off it was an amazing build and fun to complete for the most part. Unfortunately some pieces had trouble sealing as well as certain instructions were unclear. There were even points to where I had to take apart certain sections just so I can fit 2 pieces together without others falling apart. Fun build but the price you pay is the quality you get.

My 9 year old bought the Lego's with his own money. It took him several hours to build but, he had a great time working on it and did not get frustrated. I assume the instructions were well done and he wasn't missing any pieces. The finished ship looks like a great product.

The quality is not similar to Lego. The pieces many times you have to use pliers to get them to stick together. It took twice as long to do as it should have and I have done a lot of Legos and several other off brand companies. It is cheaper but probably not worth it. I had trouble with the back staying on and just have it laying beside the ship and calling it shipwreck. It is very pretty however.

Impeccable

Sehr sehr großes Schiff O.o. Hat mich auch ziemlich überrascht wie schwer das Modell ist. Außerdem hat es sehr viel spaß gemacht es zusammenzubauen. Fing schon mit der Anleitung an kleine Details einzubauen z. B. eine Ratte im Bug des Schiffes dranzusetzen usw. Was ich leider vermisst habe sind die Kanonenkugeln für die Munitionskisten. Habe außerdem noch das zweite Deck (Türkise Leitplanken mit den Löwenköpfen) umgebaut, sodass man das Zweite Deck komplett abnehmen und wieder zusammen setzen kann. Ansonsten geht es auch mit den Zwei abnehmbaren hälften wie vorgesehen Finde es aber so persönlich sinnvoller und zu schwer ist das dafür auch nicht! Großteils ist dran gedacht alles stabil zusammen zu bauen. Aber Kleinigkeiten kann man noch optimieren :). Klare Kauf Empfehlung! Preis auf jeden fall gerechtfertigt! (circa 144 Euro)

This LEGO pirate ship building set is absolutely incredible. The instructions are very easy to follow, and while the build itself isn’t difficult, it does take time — and it’s completely worth it. My son usually finishes LEGO sets in just a few hours, but this one kept him engaged for almost three days. He started around 7:00 a.m. and built until 7:00 p.m. for two days in a row. That alone says a lot about how detailed and exciting this set is. He was so happy and proud when he finally finished it. The final result looks amazing, and now our only challenge is finding a place to display it because the pirate ship is huge! Highly recommended for LEGO fans who enjoy a longer, rewarding build. We bought it as a Christmas gift.

Great ship. Took a while. Very big.

This was a good solid quality build. Pieces fitted perfectly. I don't know how they manage it, but absolutely no spare pieces from any of the bags! Overall the kit is excellent. The manual is clear and easily followed. Just one tiny criticism. Maybe there could be a bit of a help identifying each sail and where it goes on the respective masts/rigging. Whilst the triangle shaped sails are obvious, the rest are similar in size and apearance. Maybe a removable sticker on each one to aid positive identification? That aside I still believe this period sailing vessel is excellent value for money and is a really good entertaining build.
