  • 1989 was the introduction to the Lego Pirates theme and with it came the imperials. The Blue Coats and Red Coats were replaced with the Imperial armada which were soldiers based off of Spanish Conquistadors.

    It’s such a shame, they never got any larger bases. What I do like about them however is the fact, that their small flag isn’t a printed one like the other factions, but one red and one yellow flag stacked on top of each other. While this may seem a bit cheap, it reflects the actual Spanish flag and also is a cool deviation from the norm

    This waves of imperials and pirates with the better torso prints and faces were really good. Even though they cut the Imperial Armada faction a bit short, at least they didn't skimp on the parts in the sets like they started doing with Castle a bit later. If they had done a full wave of Aramada with a bigger fortress and stuff, it would have been pretty cool.

    I really hope El Dorado remake is successful enough we get a re release of any of the absolutely beautiful imperial ships (any of the three factions really). This was a cool faction due to how colorful it was compared to the other Imperials, way too short lived.

    I remember that I got this faction ship when I made 8 years old (as a Birthday gift from my aunt) and the chromed breastplate that I got on that ship is one of my most treasured and important LEGO parts. It was lost for almost a decade and when I found it, it was an amazing day for me!

    If you want a return to the Armada, you're going to have to wait until the Redcoats get their turn again, lol.
    Nice video, either way. The Imperial Factions have always been my favourites, and I never knew much about the Armada. It always irked me how Lego tried portraying them as the bad guys, so for the Admiral to be a nicer guy is a good change of pace.

      @@BrickingUpBrad Good question! I guess the Imperial Guards were, mainly because of the sets they came in. Also, the figs were kinda versatile. In their tricorns they still make nice 18th century / Revolutionary War redcoats, and if you put them in pith helmets they make nice 19th century British soldiers / riflemen. This video has me interested in collecting some Imperial Armada sets, though! Thanks!

    Ok, one correction. The Armada Flagship is not a schooner. LEGO didn't accurately follow naming conventions for the ships in the Pirate theme. The Armada Flagship is, in fact, a Yawl with a square-rigged main mast and an odd version of a lug-rigged mizzen.
    For reference:
    Black Seas Barracuda: Brig
    Caribbean Clipper: Ketch, but the mizzen lacks a sail for some reason.
    Skull's Eye Schooner: Barque, with that weird lug-rigged mizzen mast.
    Renegade Runner: Sloop
    Imperial Flagship (classic): Sloop
    Imperial Trading Post Ship: Sloop
    Red Beard Runner: Brig (with awkwardly tall masts)
    Cross Bone Clipper: Sloop
    Armada Flagship: Yawl
    Brickbeard's Bounty: Brig
    Imperial Flagship (2010): Full Rigged Ship
    LEGO Queen Ann's Revenge: Barque
    LEGO Black Pearl: Barque
    The Brick Bounty: Brig
    Black Seas Barracuda (Pirates of Barracuda Bay): Brig
    El Dorado Fortress (Icons) Ship: Sloop
    Creator 3-in-1 Pirate Ship: Brig

    The armada flagship was an embarrassing ship to the Spanish armada yet they always put more into the pirate ships lol I hope they upgrade the flagship to an ACTUAL GALLION with least 3 more members of the imperial Armada with new prints of there outfits I have a small group of the armada collection from the swashbuckler and the Golden Conquistador I need more of those guys with the white shirts with the green vest from the figure in Redbeard runner bout 20 for my rifle crew and 20 of the swashbucklers for the sailors then the figure from king Leo's Castle with the printed base plate for the fully armed imperial guard I really hope that they come back in full force the imperial guards and the armada are my most favorite
