Figure ID

Theme
Pirates
Year Released
2009
Rarity
Uncommon. Released during the revival of the Pirates theme in 2009, making it less common than 90s classic pirates but more accessible than modern limited exclusives.
Head
Yellow head with dark orange eyebrows, facial hair (goatee), and a small scar under the left eye. Features the 'shaggy' hair piece in dark orange (62691).
Torso
White torso with blue horizontal stripes (tank top style), yellow arms, and yellow hands. Features a jagged brown belt with a gold buckle printed on the front and back.
Legs
Plain black legs without printing. Standard hip piece.
Accessories
Usually paired in sets with a cutlass (sword), flintlock pistol, or musket. The specific figure in the image is shown without accessories.
Color Scheme
A classic maritime palette: Blue and White stripes, Yellow skin, Dark Orange hair, and Black base.
Printing Details
Pad-printed torso with sharp contrast between the blue and white. The head print includes fine details like the cheek scar and textured facial hair.
Variants
Similar pirates exist with red stripes (pi099) or different headpieces (bandanas/tricorns). The hair piece makes this specific configuration distinct.
Condition Notes
The torso is prone to 'torso cracks' under the arms if played with heavily. The white printing on the torso can yellow over time if exposed to UV light.
Estimated Value
Used: $4.00 - $7.00 USD. New: $10.00 - $15.00 USD. Value is largely driven by the hair piece and torso condition.
Price (New)
N/A individually; primarily found in sets ranging from the $10.00 'Loot Island' to the $100.00+ 'Brickbeard’s Bounty'.
Compatible Sets
6241 Loot Island, 6243 Brickbeard's Bounty, 6253 Shipwreck Hideout.
Character Background
A generic pirate crew member designed to populate the LEGO Pirates world. These figures represent the aesthetic transition between the 1989 'Classics' and the 2015 revival.
Design Notes
This era of Pirates moved away from 'simple' faces to more expressive characters with specific features like scars and varied facial hair, while maintaining the iconic striped shirt.
Similar Minifigures
pi099 (Red Stripes), pi148 (Blue Stripes with Red Bandana), and the 1989 classic Pirate (pi002).
Collectibility
Medium. While generic, army-builders love Pirates, and 'Pirates II' (2009) is a nostalgic sweet spot for many collectors who missed the original 80s run.
History
Part of the 20th Anniversary wave of LEGO Pirates. This wave modernized the 1989 designs with updated molds and more complex printing.
Interesting Facts
The 'Shaggy' hair piece used here was also popularized by the Shaggy character in the Scooby-Doo theme years later, though in a different color.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on a beach-themed MOC, a custom pirate ship deck, or alongside a classic Captain Redbeard for a contrast in eras.
Modification Potential
Excellent. The striped torso is a staple for custom naval or civilian builds. Parts are highly interchangeable with other Pirates or City themes.
Overall Assessment
A solid, quintessentially 'LEGO' pirate. Highly recommended for builders looking to fill out a crew without the high cost of named characters like Captain Brickbeard.
