"X marks the spot, but which spot? George Brickman's Modular Pirate Map refuses to commit, and that's precisely why I love it. This LEGO Ideas submission treats the pirate world like a puzzle where every piece works anywhere, creating a different adventure depending on your mood. Twenty tiles, each bursting with microscale detail, slot into an elegant frame to form a complete map. Then you mix them up and start again."
"The tiles themselves are tiny masterpieces. Corner pieces house imperial forts and mysterious caves. Interior tiles feature mountain waterfalls and crop fields. Island tiles show colonial outposts. And then there's the kraken, red tentacles wrapped around an unfortunate vessel, ready to terrorize whatever waters you assign it to. With approximately 2,120 pieces and already marked as a Staff Pick, this project currently has 4,172 supporters steering it toward the 10,000-vote goal. The frame measures about 16 by 13.5 inches, but the possibilities stretch much further."
Twenty microscale tiles slot into an elegant frame to form a modular pirate map that can be rearranged to create new layouts. Corner tiles contain major landmarks such as imperial forts, caves, a mountain waterfall, fields, harbors and a small town. Interior tiles provide transitional terrain with pools, agriculture and additional structures. Two island tiles add strategic focal points and a kraken tile features red tentacles wrapped around a vessel. The frame measures about 16 by 13.5 inches, uses dark brown borders with golden accents, and includes three ship's wheels along the bottom. The design totals approximately 2,120 pieces and emphasizes museum-style presentation combined with functional toy play.
