Three Great New Pirates 3 Toys


Here are three great new Pirates Toys that I must have to complete my collection.

Pirates 3 Pirate Fleet Wave 1

Pirates 3 Pirate Fleet Wave 1

Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End Pirate Fleet Assortment Wave 1.   Includes 6 individually packaged pirate ships with figures, including: 3x Jack Sparrow’s Black Pearl, 2x Davy Jones’ Flying Dutchman, and 1x Empress.   (Subject to change.)

  Pirates ships wield the power of their captain and crew. Jack Sparrow sails the Black Pear - supernaturally fast, it is the last great pirate threat in the Caribbean. That is until the Flying Dutchman, an eerie ghost ship, surfaces with Davy Jones and his cursed crew. Like a shot across the bow, Davy Jones’ presence sends Jack and his crew into a frenzy. Will the ship battle at sea, cannons blazing - or will the challenge between Jack and Davy be one-on-one?


 

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 Davy Jones Haunted Locker Bank

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 Davy Jones Haunted Locker Bank

Save your gold in this ghoulish bank!  Let the lost soul of Davy Jones watch over your shined nickels and loose change.    Davy Jones sings the Yo Ho Pirates song and laughs as his heart beats in the locker.  It features a motorized lid and sounds and lights are activated when a coin is dropped in.

      Why would a man who can only walk on the land once every ten years hide the most important thing in his life under soil? To not only keep it away from treacherous mutineers, but also keep it away from his own haunted eyes. To still the heart would be Davy Jones’ final death. To restore it would bring back the pain of his life and of his long lost love. Best to keep it under lock and key. - $27.99


 

Pirates 3 Jack Sparrow 18-Inch Talking Action Figure

Pirates 3 Jack Sparrow 18-Inch Talking Action Figure

The rum may always be gone, but Jack Sparrow will still be here!  This figure is a 18-inch tall version of everyone’s favorite pirate, Jack Sparrow.  This version of Jack Sparrow is from the final movie of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. The 18-inch tall action figure is highly detailed and features multiple points of articulation.  Also included are movie accurate accessories to add to your swashbuckling adventures! With a single push of a button, hear Jack Sparrow speak several phrases from the movie!  Sound phrases include the following:

"I’ve always valued the Pearl for two reasons. The first is freedom and the second, well, the second’s much like the first."

      "Me compass don’t point to what your heart desires, it points to what your heart most desires."

      "Davy Jones fell prey to the greatest of beasties mate, love."

Shag Pirates of the Caribbean Pirate Boy Vinyl Figure


Did Someone mention Pirates? I don’t know about you, but I’m getting jazzed for the release of Pirates Of the Caribbean: At World’s End. Lest we not forget the movie series was inspired by the theme park attraction. This Pirates boy figure by Shag is a tribute to that great attraction. Long may it sail the briny seas!

Shag Pirates of the Caribbean Pirate Boy Vinyl Figure

Shag Pirates of the Caribbean Pirate Boy Vinyl Figure

It’s retro-licious!   Popular artist Shag lends his talent and style to a collectible vinyl figure based on the Disneyland Pirates of the Carribbean ride.   This colorful pirate boy stands almost 10-inches tall and comes in special window box packaging with a background also designed by Shag.   Limited edition of 500 pieces.

Shag, whose real name is Josh Agle (he took the last two letters of his first name and the first two letters of his last name to create his artist moniker), is a Southern California-based artist whose work reflects his love for tikis, primitive art, and vintage movie and television themes.  His vivid and colorful paintings often display characters who lavishly partake in consumerism and are often in the middle of a situation that the viewer can interpret as well as enjoy visually.

With his sophisticated and upbeat style, Disney naturally took keen interest in a collaboration with Shag.  His presence in the Disney resort world began with creating merchandise for the Enchanted Tiki Room’s 40th anniversary in 2003 and also led to his participation in commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Disneyland park in 2005. For the 50th anniversary, Shag created pieces of art that depicted each of Disneyland’s five lands, as well as a comprehensive "Shag-style" map of the park and other celebratory collectibles that are lauded and cherished by Disney and, of course, its legions of fans. - $59.99
