Probally the best set of the new pirate line, I think there are only two parts that I would not use, the black catapult and the fig. The rest of the pieces look really useful; flag, brown curved bricks, mast, palm leaf, and a CHROME scimitar!
Besides the figs, this set is rich with cool parts; brown boat, large black oars, gray (!!) barrel, black chain, red parrot, treasure, and a palm tree. yes, the palm tree is the 'new' one with a wider base a fuse-together branches, but I don't mind.
The highlight in this set is the black ship, but there is also a mast, red scorpion, a treasure chest, gray scimitar and misc other pieces.
No much of a set (are any of them?), but this too has some cool parts; light and dark gray scimitars, two grey chests, brown boat, black oars, new brown mast and interesting-looking mini skull.
This probally the worst set, but there are several interesting pieces; 4x4 tile with map printing (please don't be a sticker!), spider webs, croc, white scimitar, brown oars and that wierd skull.
An.....odd ship, to put it nicely. The brown railing at the front of the ship might be useful, but the rest.....
Cool parts pack if it was $1; black scimitar, bottle, croc and goblet.
The best of the three 'minifig' sets; two scimiters, black and white, jewel, flag and (LEGOFREAK's gonna luv this) a monkey!
A nice parts pack with a jewel, scimitar, white shark and chest.
I don't know about you, but I think the Pirate line will aid Castle greatly.
