>>9885341My first Lego pirate purchase as a kid was determined by the inclusion of a monkey.
These two sets were apparently released a few years apart, but here in Australia they were still on shelves together, outside of birthdays and christmas I could really only scrape together enough cash for the little minifig/accessory packs then moc up whatever with the rest of the lego I had, so every single purchase was painfully deliberated over.
A lifetime later and no regrets, 6252 every time, an even amount of pirates and imperial troops, a chest with gold, a parrot, one pistol, one rifle, two swords, a pirate flag that would turn any misshapen moc into a pirate ship or pirate island and a montherfucking monkey.
Absolute perfection.
