“In the next impulse set from wave four we see another new pirate and a skeleton. This guy looks completely different from those who have come before and the skeleton was only released in one set in the previous year, so figure wise the set is nice.”

“Inside lies a previously deceased Spanish Conquistador(I think that's what they call them). Anywho, it features a slightly larger baseplate to the set "Buried Treasure". This makes for more creativity. Also included are gold coins, a skeleton, a palm frond and a barrel. I... More remember having hours of fun with this, and I'm sure you will, too.”
