The pirate ship from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" film series, which LEGO fans have been eagerly anticipating, is truly making a comeback! The Danish toy company LEGO has finally revealed product images and some information for set number 10365 in its LEGO Icons series, "Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirateship". Let's take a look!
This new version of The Black Pearl, now named "Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirateship," boasts 2862 pieces. Compared to the "4184 The Black Pearl" set released by LEGO in 2011, which had a total of 804 pieces, this is a massive increase of over two thousand parts! The integrity of the hull is outstanding, the deck features a lift-off section, and it includes an adjustable rudder. You can also find Jack Sparrow's small boat, and it comes with a faux wood-style base for display.
This set includes 8 minifigure characters: Captain Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, Gibbs, Cotton, Anamaria, Marty, Elizabeth Swann, and Captain Hector Barbossa.
"Pirates of the Caribbean" fans should be thrilled, as this is the first time we're getting Anamaria and Elizabeth Swann in her golden gown in LEGO minifigure form. Unfortunately, the popular comedic duo Pintel and Ragetti are surprisingly not included. The absence of these two crucial crew members from such a classic lineup will surely diminish the desire to purchase for many fans, especially since the set is named "Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirateship."
The new 2025 version of "The Black Pearl" is arguably the most substantial pirate ship in the LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean series. The main body reaches a height of 64 cm and a length of 64 cm, a massive scale that ranks among the top in LEGO pirate ship history. The all-black hull paired with its classic black sails perfectly recreates the legendary pirate ship from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films. Simply placing it in a display case gives it an overwhelming presence, delivering a powerful impact to both movie fans and LEGO collectors alike.
Beyond its massive size, the 2025 version of "The Black Pearl" also features significant upgrades compared to the 2011 edition, especially with more refined interactive play features.
Players can use a rotating mechanism to quickly deploy the cannons on the port and starboard sides, recreating thrilling naval battle scenes. Additionally, the ship's wheel above the cabin is linked to the rudder at the stern, allowing players to truly feel the immersive experience of "steering The Black Pearl." These details make this new set not just a magnificent display-grade pirate ship, but also a highly interactive LEGO creation.
Even more surprisingly, this "Black Pearl" includes a clever display design—the hull can be separated at the waterline, allowing players to choose between a "sailing mode" or placing it on its dedicated stand for display. This thoughtful mechanical design makes the ship's presentation more flexible and versatile, showcasing the LEGO design team's attention to detail and fully satisfying the dual desires of players to both "play" and "collect."
In terms of detail, this "Black Pearl" does not disappoint. The ship's interior is fully realized, including scenes like the Captain’s Quarters, allowing players to peek into Captain Jack Sparrow's private space. The rich interior details ensure that The Black Pearl is not just a domineering behemoth in appearance, but also full of narrative depth and playability.
The 4184 The Black Pearl, released in 2011, was built from 804 bricks and included 6 minifigures: Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, Joshamee Gibbs, Davy Jones, Maccus, and Bootstrap Bill.
As a veteran player who once owned the 4184 The Black Pearl, my only word for the new 10365 "Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirateship" is "breathtaking." Although the name is a bit lengthy, its scale and design ambition are deeply captivating. I believe all fans of the LEGO Pirates series will be incredibly excited about this brand-new creation.
As for the price, the recommended retail price is $380 USD. While it may not sound cheap, the price point might seem much more reasonable when you see this massive Black Pearl in front of you, or when you compare it side-by-side with the 2011 version. As Jack Sparrow's classic line from the movie goes: "Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate."
Finally, as a hidden Easter egg, the release date for LEGO 10365, "September 12th," is actually the Danish premiere date for "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl." (It also happens to be the birthday of Hans Zimmer, the renowned German film composer who scored the series.)
