LEGO set 31109, Pirate Ship, depicts a pirate vessel in the Creator 3-in-1 range. Released in 2020, it belongs to the Creator theme and uses 1260 pieces for a classic seafaring subject.
Set 31109 is part of Creator 3-in-1, a theme structure built around reusing the same parts inventory for different models.
The figures are a skeleton with standard face, a pirate captain with blue jacket, peg leg and bicorne hat with white plume, a pirate with an open blue vest over a red and white striped shirt and black tricorne hat, and a pirate with a red and white striped shirt and red bandanna. The French retail title also refers to alternative builds as an inn and a skull island.
The set can be used for play or display because the ship and crew establish the subject clearly. Within Creator, its position is defined by the 3-in-1 format: it is not only a pirate ship model, but also a parts selection intended to be rebuilt into related scenes, making it useful for comparing Creator sets by rebuild value.
