The sails are cloaks wrapped in rubber bands, and the crows nests are Black Panther ears and ninja cowls. The 1×1 round plate with bar makes for some nice cannons, even if I did not add enough to equal the real ship there are concessions one must make at this scale, after all. And if I was going to make a black ship, why not make Captain Jack’s ship, the Black Pearl?Īt first, I tried building the sides with slope bricks and tiles, but it looked too chunky at this small scale, so I hit upon the idea of using the quarter dome elements for the prow, and the rest of the ship filled in from there. And since I have a lot of black fabric elements, I decided to build a black ship. So when I ( Benjamin Stenlund) decided to enter the Style it Up contest to pass the time during my days at home, it wasn’t long before I hit on the idea of building a ship.

Furthermore, Blackbeard has super strength allowing him to pull orange levers in Free Play mode and lift other minifigures up and toss them about.Where I sit, the government has issued a stay at home order, and non-essential in-person businesses are closed. Swinging the sword regularly, you can beat most minifigures in one hit. You can use these energy bolts playing as Blackbeard to build nearby bricks from a distance and only as Blackbeard you can manipulate black and red bricks. In all other instances where you meet Blackbeard in Story Mode, he will use the red voodoo energy to push you back when you approach him. When on the business end of the Sword of Triton in the final battle of On Stranger Tides- Chapter 5, it switches your controls for a few moments so when you push left you move right, when you push forward you go back and vice versa. With Blackbeard, you can fire voodoo energy balls that smash LEGO bricks and make other minifigures fight your enemies for you. He is counting on his daughter Angelica to find the Fountain of Youth before a prophecy about his death by the claw of a one-legged man comes true.

As the ruthless brickthirsty Captain of The Queen Anne’s Revenge Pirate Ship, Blackbeard uses dark magic and the legendary Sword of Triton to terrify anyone who dares to sail in his path.

D3dw0d Edward Teach better known as Blackbeard is the pirate whose very name strikes fear into the plastic hearts of all other Minifigure Pirates.
