Solid list. I admit I only got into lego around 2020 during Covid so I don’t the nostalgia build up. To me Pirates of Barracuda Bay and the more recent El Dorado Fortress are just on a different level.
6277 & 6278 share my personal #1 spot. As a playset itself, 6277 leads. It has just so many different playoptions. It's a little world in itself. It has everything and more what I desire(d) form a (play) set in building-, landscape-, figure-/faction- (3!! with pirate, soldiers AND merchant(s), the latter figure was my fav pirate theme character of all childhood-time) and vehicle-diversity. I'd call it an epic set! set 6278 blew my mind, because after all those passionate years of lego pirate theme playing, they came up with this amazing new faction/world with the islanders. it felt like my playworld-horizont/universe was expanding. I was so happy!
You’ve hit the nail on the head there. They did just fill you with joy - something Lego still does with the odd set but rarely now. Those were just so brilliant to grow up with

Very interested to see what Lego do next with Pirates. Imagine a remaster of the trading post 🤩
I’m wanting them to do more. Sadly anything will need to come under icons or ideas as the theme itself is dead

Skull island 6279 is cool too, not the best but still have good features, trap, a crane, hidden pistols, a moving skull hiding a cave...
The new Eldorado Fortress is amazing and has the ship from the trading post which is really nice. Stud Lord is the best though. 😀
Modesty stops me from telling you how right you are 😉 🙏
"single-handedly" 😆👍
