jp-30 Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 This was snapped at Comic-Con, though there's no announcement yet. There's a chance it's an unofficial custom figure. However LEGO and Disney have signed a deal (so far Cars, Toy Story & Prince of Persia), so there's a good chance we'll be getting POTC sets on the shelves with 'On Stranger Tides' movie release in 2011. And that means there's also a chance of a TTGames LEGO POTC videogame...
purple_tentacle_ Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 I think that would be GREAT!!! I love those lego games they always do good.
The Tingler Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 A LEGO game based on Pirates of the Caribbean would be an utterly perfect fit. Toy Story would also be acceptable.
Snugglecakes Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Ok I must admit, I still haven't touched the lego games. I probably spent 23 hours a day playing with lego when I was muuuuch younger so I'm a fan, but I still don't get the point of a computer game with lego characters. Are they really that good?
Haggis Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 I don't care about LEGO games, but if that turns out to be true... I want those LEGO sets!

I probably spent 23 hours a day playing with lego when I was muuuuch younger so I'm a fan, but I still don't get the point of a computer game with lego characters. Are they really that good? Yes, actually. They're very much "all-ages" games, like Mario or Sonic, but the best thing about all of them is the way they lampoon the movies in a very loving and surprisingly adult way. Pixar-like, you might say. Lego Star Wars fit the series perfectly, and Lego Indy 1 was excellent, although opinions are mixed on Lego Batman (I got bored with it) and Lego Indy 2 (I hated it at first and then loved it - there's a zombie level!). Lego Harry Potter is the only one I've not played, and it's supposed to be the best yet.
Aububuh Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 There's no way that's a custom. Please don't be a custom. I want this to happen.
Gabez Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 I wonder what he's doing on a camel? A little boat would make more sense -- unless this is part of the plot for the next film.
LordTrilobite Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 It must be a custom, look at the texture of his hat. Also, the LEGO Star Wars games are all awesome, buy them now. LEGO Indy 2 sucks though.
Aububuh Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 It must be a custom, look at the texture of his hat. Prototypes usually have that texture. Look at this camel from the Prince Of Persia set reveal. Gabez, as for why Jack's on a camel, the figure in front of him in the second shot looks like the prince from Prince Of Persia. I'm guessing Lego snuck Jack into the PoP showcase to tease fans.
LordTrilobite Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Lol is that a camel or a dromedary? Since it seems to have two half humps.

The Tingler Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Someone on the comments thread pointed out that with this new Disney deal, and since Disney now own Marvel Comics, it's possible we could see sets and games based on Marvel characters like Spider-Man, Iron Man, X-Men etc.

It would be cool to see some stuff based directly on the comics, though.
Edward van Helgen Posted July 27, 2010 Posted July 27, 2010 A lego PotC game would be great! I love the lego star wars games and I think this would be awesome!
jp-30 Posted August 20, 2010 Author Posted August 20, 2010 Pirates of the Carribean LEGO sets have been confirmed for 2011. (Look at this chat log with LEGO PR guy, Steve Witt at 6:03. http://bricknotes.blogspot.com/2010/08/steve-witts-q.html
clone2727 Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Pirates of the Carribean LEGO sets have been confirmed for 2011.And now we wait for the game...
Aububuh Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Then we wait for the first custom playable Guybrush.
jp-30 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Posted August 21, 2010 Hmmm, I really need to get my LEGO game re-skinning tutorial back online... http://web.archive.org/web/20080314232008/http://www.hansen.net.nz/lswtutorial/index.html
Aububuh Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 I think I've seen that tutorial before. I never could figure it out. Oh well, I've never really been good at that kind of stuff anyway.
jp-30 Posted August 22, 2010 Author Posted August 22, 2010 It needs updating - there was a tool developed that made the unpacking and repacking of the textures way easier.
jp-30 Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 First look at the sets... http://www.degrotespeelgoedwinkel.nl/sc12-607/lego/pirates-of-the-caribbean.html (likely prototype packaging)
