LEGO BrickLink Designer Program 910059 - Privateer Frigate Fortuna

Embark on an epic voyage with thePrivateer Frigate Fortuna — a swift and graceful 18th-century warship crafted for daring expeditions and high-seas adventure. This stunning 4,000-piece model is perhaps the closest a LEGO® creation has ever come to a historically accurate sailing frigate from the final years of the Golden Age of Piracy.

Whether proudly displayed as the centerpiece of your collection, integrated into a larger pirate diorama, or starring in a stop-motion film, Fortuna is breathtaking from every angle. When looking closely, you will find a host of innovative and largely unique building techniques and an extraordinary level of detail and refinement.

Crew & Passengers:

Fortuna comes with 20 Minifigures (including a magnificent figurehead):

• Captain, captain’s daughter, lieutenant, midshipman

• Boatswain, cook, sailmaker, carpenter

• Six sailors and five marines

They are joined by a goat, a cat, two chickens, and one mischievous stowaway — a monkey!

Flags: Raise the colors of the Redcoats, Bluecoats, or go rogue with an exquisite pirate flag!

Sail Templates: I designed printable sail templates (A4 or US Letter). When printed on heavy, natural-textured paper (single- or double-sided), they rival the appearance of real fabric sails. Assembly requires only scissors and a standard hole punch — no additional LEGO elements are needed.

Main Features:

• Run out the Cannons: Open the gun ports and slide out the cannons for realistic naval battles.

• Working Capstan & Anchors: A clever selector gearbox lets you raise or lower either anchor. The removable capstan can be turned with Minifigures on it. When unselected, the anchor can also be dropped.

• Accessible Interior: Remove the top deck in sections for full access. Minifigures can stand and move below deck, and there is storage for all of their weapons and utensils.

• Plentiful details:Prepare food for the crew in the galley, read maps in the captain's cabin, or look after the treasure chest below deck.

• Authentic Masts: Accurate, three-piece masts complete with standing rigging. The yards can turn into the wind and Minifigures can climb the shrouds.

• Elegant, Realistic Hull: The graceful curves of an 18th-century frigate are captured in all three dimensions using hinged sections, slopes, and half-a-plate high offsets for a smooth, historically faithful shape.

• Structural Integrity: Built on a technic frame, Fortuna has an exceptionally strong hull and is easy to transport.
