Set Review - #31109-1: Skull Island - Creator 3-in-1

Here is the last review for #31109-1. The Pirate Ship is here and the Pirate Inn is here. Skull Island is the smallest of the builds and I found there were a lot of pieces left over when it was complete. The design includes a brick built raft, a brick built row boat, and then the island itself. The island includes a brick built palm tree and a brick built monkey. The skull itself protects a pirate treasure of gold coins (1x1 round plates) and the treasure chest. The skull is mounted by a Technic axle and you can spin a wheel to have it move up and down. It doesn’t move much, but it would scare away anyone trying to steal the treasure.

The pictures below include the front and the back of the build. Overall, I think the skull could look slightly more realistic, but I guess that’s what is left up to the builder to adjust as required. The three builds for this set are all great and I could see wanting to keep all three assembled (I don’t plan to buy two more of these sets). They all would be a great part of a pirate scene or layout.

I haven’t bought a 3-in-1 set in a while, but this one was definitely worth it. I highly recommend this one… especially if you can find it on sale like I did. The builds are great and the pieces available are useful in other builds.

What are your thoughts on this one? A great addition for your Pirates or a lame attempt?

Happy building!
