My 7 year old child loves to play with this ship. He takes it all over the house to do battles with other ships and Pirates of the Caribbean characters. It does hold up well but will sometimes come apart. The sails seem to be the most unstable when moving it around. I would strongly suggest this item for a child above 5 years old.
Wow, great ship! Prirates crazy daughter loved it! December 26, 2006

The Black Pearl playset is absolutely worth the money. My 6 year old daughter who LOVES Capt. Jack received this along with other mega block sets in the series. I ended up putting it together for her while she entertained her grand parents.
The instructions were really well done. Each step was pictured in simple to understand notations and large images. Each piece fits like any other mega blocks or lego-type project. You just got to make sure you press the pieces together on a hard surface to get them to really lock well (carpet building is especially hard when attempting the port royal playset. lol)
It took me about an hour to get the Black Pearl together. This was only because there was so much going on around me while I was working. :-)
Yes, the ship will come apart while you are playing with it. My daughter didn't rip it in half or anything - just a part of the side had to be pushed back on. Isn't that part of the fun of a Pirate ship battle with two ships blowing holes into each other with their cannons?
Anyway, I've never known a lego-type toy not to come undone unless you permanently model glue them in strategic places. I think I'll probably end up doing that to this ship. It is quite pretty - can you say that about a pirate ship?!lol - and well detailed. The figures are really cool, too. Each of their little arms, legs, and heads are posable.
All and all, yes, I do recommend this toy. I'm tempted to buy another and keep it save and decked out on a shelf. :-)
Great Toy December 26, 2006

The toy is a nice set. Obviously, because it is made of blocks, it can fall apart if your kids are too rough - although it has faired well with my 6 year old so far. However, compared to most sets, the ship stays together without many problems right out of the box. In addition, as with any building toy, weak spots can be braced by using other mega blocks or legos (which is part of the building fun).
Great gift for a six year old. December 16, 2006

We bought this for our son for his sixth birthday (along with a bunch of other Mega Bloks PotC sets) and he loved it! The detail is amazing and he has spent hours playing with it. The directions are very detailed yet incredibly simple. It is very well made unlike the "Zizzle" version of the same toy which we had and fell apart at the slightest touch. If your kids (or you) are into PotC, I would definitely get this toy.
Fun toy with many pieces December 15, 2006

We have pretty much all of the POTC toys that have been made! The Megabloks Black Pearl pirate ship has a lot of detail and a lot of pieces. We have two of these and they each took about 20 minutes to build. The ships are fragile so if your child likes to play rough they will come apart. My 7yo and 4yo boys love them anyway. They are rich in detail and my kids are into their imaginary play for hours with them.
We also have the Zizzle Black Pearl pirate ship. It doesn't have nearly as many parts (not the "Lego" style like Megabloks) and is bigger. It has some cool electronic noises and trap doors, but is not as detailed as the Megabloks version. The Megabloks version has real sails too. The Zizzle ship has no action figures, so you have to order the 3" figures separately (my kids just use their Megabloks figures).
Their other favorites are the Megabloks Flying Dutchman (built a lot like the Black Pearl) and the Dead Man's Chest. These sets are a must have for the POTC fan!
