Black Pearl 40002 – KOL Featured

This was overall a great first time experience! It took some time for the lighting (it’s my first extensive lighting set) but it was worth it! Hoping to improve wiring in the future. Just in time for Halloween 🎃

The black pearl was my first JMBricklayer build. It was an enjoyable build other than a few items. 1) Sails - the punched hole was to close to the edge leaving it cut and unable to hang on the ship. I used fabric glue to bring the edges together and the problem was resolved. 2) The green "teeth" were extremely difficult to put into the U shaped bricks. Unless you have strong hand strength you are going to need a hammer.

All lights worked and they look really good!

Quality and design is really good. The steps to constructing some phases could use some revamping. Some phases require pressure to lock the bricks into place, but sometimes, there is no room to place fingers to do so because some structures are blocking the way. This is an easy fix for experienced builders who can take things apart and reconstruct out of sequence, but having them in sequence to begin with would really help. Overall, the end result is awesome and looks great.

This was a very enjoyable build! The included light kit adds tremendous value to the display appeal! Highly recommended!

Vraiment parfait!! On a l’impression d’avoir un vrai LEGO entre les mains, les instructions sont vraiment bien faites et claires! Je recommande à 100%
