Set sail for imaginative play aboard the Team Spidey Pirate Ship (11208) creative building toy with Spidey, Green Goblin, Ghost-Spider and Miles “Spin” Morales. This building set offers a great way for boys, girls and kids ages 4 years old and up to develop skills as they explore fun at sea and on Spider Island. This feature-packed Spidey building toy includes a pirate ship, Spider Island with a slide, Green Goblin’s ship and a smaller boat. There’s a cannon on the pirate ship, a disc shooter on the island and shooters on Green Goblin’s ship. Spidey’s web rope can be used to catch a fish, a treasure chest or Goblin’s ship. This Spider-Man gift for fans of Spidey And His Amazing Friends comes with colorful pictorial instructions, a Starter Brick and separate bags containing 1 buildable model per bag to make creative construction fast and fun.
The packaging transmits all the aquatic fun contained in the set. The front of the box shows a large illustration of the combat between the set’s characters. To the left, Ghost Spider is standing on her island, aiming her water gun at Green Goblin, who is in his small ship, on the water. In the middle, we can see Spidey’s ship prominently, with Spidey at the wheel and Spin floating to its side, in a tub, attached to the ship by a web. Behind the Spidey’s ship, a shark lurks around the area. The background is composed of a white and blue sky with some clouds. On the top left corner, we have the classic LEGO and Marvel logos. On the right side, we have our heroes (Spidey, Ghost Spider, and Spin) as depicted in the Spidey and this Amazing Friends show. On the bottom left corner, we have a large red circle with the age indication (4+) in a large, white font. On the bottom right corner, we have small vignettes of the characters contained in the set, which are (from left to right) Spidey, Ghost Spider, Miles “Spin” Morales, and Green Goblin. On the right side of the box, we have the name of the set in different languages, as well as a warning that none of the set’s models float. The back of the box shows a more clean, static image of what is in the set. In the top part, in the middle, we can see the set’s minifigures with all their accessories. On the left, we have a left back view of Spidey’s ship. On the bottom, we can see Ghost Spider’s island. On the right, we have a vignette of our heroes sitting around, with Ghost Spider reading a treasure map, Spin drinking from a cup, and Spidey eating a hot dog. Beneath it, there is another vignette of Spin shooting discs from Ghost Spider’s island, defending himself from the shark. Beneath it, we have the text “LEARN TO BUILD”, showing the connection of Spidey’s ship haul, emphasizing that this is a set for younger builders. On the top left corner, we have the logos of LEGO and Marvel. On the bottom right corner, we have Spidey’s logo as well. The left of the box has the classic LEGO and Marvel logos on top of a white background with silhouettes of superheroes in their LEGO style. The top of the box has the LEGO and Marvel logos, as well as an image of Spidey’s minifigure on a 1:1 scale. The bottom side is a tidy strip that contains the barcode as well as a few technical bits, such as the place of manufacture, copyright and trademark notices. The build consists of 201 pieces in total and is recommended for ages 4+.
