Cleaning 40 Year Old LEGO Pirate Ships!

I got these 40 year old LEGO pirate ships from my buddy Casey and his wife. I took to the task of refurbishing them and making them look good as new! It was an awesome adventure that I know you will enjoy!

I have those 2 ships from when I was a kid. Thanks for reminding me they are 40 years old. Now I feel really old.

[@BenjBuilds]

Lol my bad. Hope it brought back good memories!

[@JRodStudios]

WOW! That was some incredible work! I'm so glad they decided to keep the sets!

[@BenjBuilds]

Was definitely a good choice! Thanks for watching

[@benjamindover6685]

That is awesome job 😄
That pirate ship is just legendary

[@BenjBuilds]

Thanks! They are some fantastic LEGO sets

[@robthomsen6928]

Nice! Can’t wait for the Millennium Falcon episode ;-)

[@tammypalmer365]

I wish I had this

[@BenjBuilds]

Same! They are amazing sets

[@brickjawns]

Great video

[@BenjBuilds]

Thanks!

[@wholeset]

I impressed how well you cleaned up those pirate ships. I already have the Caribbean clipper and I'm just ordering the barracuda

[@BenjBuilds]

Nice! They are great LEGO sets! Glad you enjoyed the video and have fun with yours

[@yellamach_1]

Good work man! Those ships look brand new

[@BenjBuilds]

Thanks!

[@jaredburtner8781]

Wow, nice job! Interesting how much of the ships were made of large specialty pieces

[@BenjBuilds]

Yeah I kinda miss those days of LEGO, but they have gotten really good at doing brick built counterparts

[@samanthaburtner9924]

They look amazing cleaned up!!

[@BenjBuilds]

Thanks!

[@spethomsen]

I never said toys were just for "youths". Many grown men like to play with fun little toys. It's cute. 🙂

[@BenjBuilds]

Yeah, like sailboats

[@prnzali2010]

Nice cleaning vid! I have those sets. How much is the Barracuda going for? Mine is not new in box but i also have the box in fair condition the ship is in great condition

[@BenjBuilds]

Thanks! Nice, just looking on Bricklink, it sells used for an average of $350, and having the box is a huge positive!

[@soppysteaks4397]

Like seriously those ships turned out F A N T A S T I C

[@BenjBuilds]

Thonks baab

[@danderth]

Does 3D printing parts ever work? like those flags that you had to order seemed like a good candidate.

[@BenjBuilds]

Possibly. I like to be a LEGO purist as much as I can. I have thought about getting a 3D printer to make some LEGO compatible stuff, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet lol

[@danderth]

@@BenjBuilds I agree, and felt kind of dirty even asking that question, lol.

[@BenjBuilds]
