The blue light in the cave looks nice though, I'd love to see how it looks when filled up with lots of treasure instead of just the chest that comes with it. A truly legendary treasure.

Great review. The red flowers are new and so is the bamboo. The pandas finally have something decent to eat.
I didn't realize the coins have animal symbols on them. They are nice, and the game part seems ok though a bit simple, but then it is for kids. I'm probably not going to get it, too big and specialized for me, but the new plant parts and the coins may eventually find their way into my collection.

:yippee: :yippee: :yippee: Thanks so much for the review, panos! This set is even more fun than I realized! :inlove:

That's so cool that you need a pegleg clicky to pull the stairs out, kids will love this set!

But now we have to re-visit the shiny, shiny shiny, not so shiny topic all over again! :doh:

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

there is a catch... if the coins are not inserted in the correct order, a rock is pushed out of its way and hits the klicky that is standing in front of the door...

Very nice review. I think I'll pass, though. It's too big, and a 100 euro, and only three figures ...

I wasn't interested in this set at first, mostly because pirate landforms I have too many, and thought this one would be one too many (and too big).

However, darn it, you make me want it now.

Anyone notice the tan clicky looks a lot like Jack Sparrow?  Especially having a red bandana that fits and is visible even when the tricorn is being worn? (by the way, wolf, can you take a pic of the clicky showing more of its separate parts?  Is this a new hair/bandana, and the longcoat? And the boot cuffs look different too, are they?)



And the aztec design looks pretty spot on with the Pirates of the Caribbean aztec design?  Coinkidink I think not!

Excellent! Thanks!
The central Aztec sun stone is quite similar to the original one...

I would love to see a Conquistador/Aztec theme, many pyramids and treasures here.

Great review!!! Thank you WolfKnight. I have the set myself and as an addition to your review I agree with all your statements.  8-)

BTW the sensor in the coin is a RFID tag. It's a chip with a pattern, like a barcode, but also different.
