ree

One of the most exciting LEGO Icons sets of 2025 is almost here as the long-awaited return of Pirates of the Caribbean sails into LEGO stores this September. The legendary Black Pearl, captained by the infamous Jack Sparrow, is finally receiving its ultimate LEGO 18+ brick-built treatment with 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship releasing on the 12th of September 2025.


Built with an incredible amount of detail alongside a fan favourite Minifigure lineup, the latest LEGO Icons model will be another highly sought-after model and the definitive LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean set. In this article, we'll break down everything you need to know about 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship ahead of its release, including key details, the ship's design, the confirmed cast of Minifigures and its accompanying Gift With Purchase.


The Important Details

With a set number of 10365, this 18+ LEGO Icons branded set marks the long-awaited return of Pirates of the Caribbean in brick-built form. Including a total of 2,862 pieces, the Black Pearl will be another expensive purchase with a rumoured retail price of $329.99 / €329.99 / £289.99, possibly increasing to $379.99 in the United States.


The set officially releases on the 12th of September 2025, remaining a LEGO store and LEGO shop@home exclusive for the first few months of its product life. With a piece count approaching 3,000, this is easily the most ambitious LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean set to date and is expected to stay on shelves until at least 2028. Recent reports suggest that an official presentation will take place within just a few days, Tuesday the 26th of August to be precise.


Previous LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean Sets

LEGO has tackled Pirates of the Caribbean before, most notably with 4184 The Black Pearl in 2011 and 71042 Silent Mary in 2017. Both were strong sets for their time, but collectors and fans alike have long wanted a modern, highly detailed LEGO Icons-scale Black Pearl to match today’s design standards and previous remakes seen with the likes of The Lord of the Rings, for example.


Compared to its predecessors, 10365 is far larger, far more detailed, and geared towards adult builders and display collectors. It follows LEGO’s recent trend of releasing large-scale ships such as 10335 The Endurance and 21356 River Steamboat, but this time, based on Disney’s ever-popular swashbuckling franchise.



The Main Build

The main build of the set is obviously the majestic Black Pearl, recreated as a large and imposing brick-built pirate ship. Its hull is entirely black, built using a combination of curved and angled elements to make it as accurate as possible to the onscreen counterpart. The vessel is held in place by two brick-built brown stands, raising it off the ground so the ship can easily be displayed whilst also showcasing its smooth brick-built underside.


The upper deck is filled with detail, with plenty of space for Minifigures to be displayed and played with. Rows of cannon ports line the sides of the hull, and the set includes several brick-built grey cannons which can be positioned through the openings. Ropes, chains and railings, along with ladders and climbing rigging, are also included, adding the authentic pirate ship look. The deck can also be opened/removed in sections to reveal further details and references hidden inside.


The most striking part of the ship is its full set of sails, made from black fabric pieces stretched across three tall masts. In total, nine sails give the ship its iconic silhouette, with many of these including purposefully placed holes and tears to reflect the ship's worn and ghostly look. A long bowsprit extends forward at the very front, supporting ropes and topped with a sand green mermaid-style figurehead, one of the only splashes of colour on the otherwise all-black build.


At the stern, the ship rises into a multi-level back section that is just as detailed as the rest of the 18+ model. The rear windows are framed with decorative elements, while three glowing lanterns sit across the back. Inside this area, the captain’s cabin is built with furniture such as a table, maps, and bottles, along with plenty of brick-built accessories. There are also hidden spaces where cargo and treasure can be stored


Minifigure Lineup

Alongside the mighty vessel, nine LEGO Minifigures are included, all exclusive to the September 2025 model with updated printing, accessories, and in some cases, new moulds. These figures are Captain Jack Sparrow, Hector Barbossa, Elizabeth Swann, Will Turner, Anamaria, Joshamee Gibbs, Cotton, Marty and the previously mentioned sand green figurehead at the front of the Black Pearl.


Gift With Purchase

Once 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship releases on the 12th of September 2025, an exclusive Gift With Purchase will also be available alongside the 18+ model. This GWP in particular currently has no set number or any further rumoured information apart from the fact that it will be in a yellow box, suggesting very limited availability and likely a small build with no more than 200 pieces included.


So that's everything you need to know about 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship, but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 10365 in just a few weeks time?
