The Lore:

Pirates from every creed and corner of the map find refuge behind the walls of Skull Island!

Weather you’re fleeing from the imperial armada or looking for a secure place to stash your loot, this island offers protection and pleasantries of all kinds.

Ruled strictly by the pirates code, only the most honorable thieves and brigands are allowed to set foot on its hallowed shores.

The caves of Skull Island overflow with gold and other treasures, while the well defended walls offer valuable protection from imperials and pirate hunters!

Located in strategic waters, the island is a perfect place to pick up a crew, find a captain, gather information or stock up on supplies, charts, and weapons.

The Inspiration:

I love locations,forts and buildings, so it only made sense to bring a new island to life in the world of Lego pirates!

This design was inspired by the toys of my past.

In those days the lack of realism is what added an air of fantastical whimsy to the experience. The exaggerated play features, bright colors and lager than life architectural pieces (like giant skulls or stone dragons) drew me instantly into those worlds. Here, I’ve attempted to capture some of that classic magic in Skull Island, I hope it stirs something in you as well!
