Savage Shores - New Product Configuration for Pirates of the Cursed Seas

November 5th, 2008 by Andre Lawless

Savage Shores, the newest product in our Pirates of the Cursed Seas PocketModel Game line, arrives in stores today and while the contents have been listed on our website, (here: Savage Shores) and several previews have also run (Preview #1, Preview #2 & Preview #3), we haven’t said much about what has changed and why.

The newest release sees us moving away from the booster model to meet changing consumer demands and toward a gift SKU that provides days of fun at a reasonable price.  The new set, officially termed a “scavenger pack”, offers pirates fans a ton of ships and game content at a real value price - more than $30 worth of Pirates for an MSRP of $14.99.

While this is a model that is very friendly to new players, it also offers significant riches to be discovered by longtime Pirates fans and collectors.

 

For example, there are six different boxes in the set, each with an exclusive ship displayed in the window:

Cannibal King

#45 - Cannibal King

Speedy Return

#46 - Speedy Return

#47 - Libellule

#47 - Libellule

048 - Soul Crusher

#48 - Soul Crusher

Valeroso

#49 - Valeroso

HMS Mirage

#50 - HMS Mirage

Not only are these ships cool, and exclusive to their respective box, collecting all six also gives you the six ship cards needed to construct the two following 10-mast ships:

10-Mast Ships (L to R, Celtic Fury & Shui Xian)

10-Mast Ships (L to R, Celtic Fury & Shui Xian)

We expect Savage Shores to be a hot holiday purchase for pirate lovers everywhere.  Hope you enjoyed these little tidbits. Stay tuned for photos and news from Wizard World Texas!

Later!
