Amazon.com Product Description:
Do you have what it takes to control the powers of this mysterious vessel that eternally sails the seven seas? According to legend, the Flying Dutchman is a ghost ship that sails above and below the ocean's surface. Captained by Davy Jones and crewed by lost men condemned to serve until their final judgment, the Flying Dutchman is usually spotted from afar, glowing with ghostly light.
Build this 235-piece set to sail your very own Flying Dutchman and search down debt-owing pirates attempting to skirt their fate with Calypso. The sides and front of this massive ship feature glow-in-the-dark capability, offering an eerie presence on the high seas. Once built, the ship can be manned by the four included--and fully poseable--figures of Davy Jones, Admiral Norrington, Bootstrap Bill, and Penrod. The captain's tentacle beard will change colors when it touches cold water, which is to be expected for a man sailing the ocean.
But the formidable Davy Jones is not the only reason that the Flying Dutchman has such a reputation. It is also armed with legendary weaponry, and the two launching cannons allow you to engage in battle with enemies on the open water. Other accessories include real fabric sails, a zip line, functioning deck panels, and the captain's organ. Make sure a friend has the Black Pearl so it can be determined once and for all which ship is mightier.
Ship pieces feature small details and glow-in-the-dark capability.
Great toy and stays together pretty well!! I got this a couple of months ago. This toy is a great gift for any Pirates of the Caribbean fan. For the most part the toy stays together. The only part that falls off a lot is the back flagpole. Still, this toy is very durable. It does have small parts, though. (don't get this real young kids) It took me about an hour to put the whole thing together. You might want some adult supervision if you're getting this for a pretty young kid. Other than that, this is a great toy and I highly recommend it for any pirate fan!
Definite hit Our 8 year old rec'd this for Christmas this year. He requested "some big Lego thing" but when I saw the price on this one (I got a great deal), I couldn't pass it up, especially since I knew it would work with all of his other Lego toys. This is one big ship when it's all put together and very impressive. He has played with it several times since Christmas, even taking time off from playing his beloved Wii, which was the family "big gift" this year. He likes the characters, even though he has not seen the movies and likes that he can have his Lego Spiderman guys visit the pirate ship too. LOTS of small pieces, so you might want to buy a sturdy bin to keep everything in when it's not being played with, but we would definitely recommend this toy.
Awesome with modifications Got it for $10.99 before Christmas for my 8 year old. He built it himself. I have had to hotglue big parts of the ship because he actually plays with the ship as a toy, but it is awesome, cloth sails, great detail. I wish the blocks held together better, but much of the main sections of the ship can be glued and still leave access to the inside. I would buy this again.
Pirates of the Caribbean My nephew loved this product. He said it was one of the best presents he had ever gotten on Christmas. Easy to build and u can use it after u build it too...shoots real cannon balls. His name is Logan and he just turned 8. Excellent product & review.
great father and son project My 5 year old son and I put this model together. I would highly recomend this product. We needed model glue on the masts, but all parts fit nicely and we had great fun doing this together.
