unbox, build and review of Lego set 6270: Forbidden Island from 1989!

[@henrysvintagetoys]

EXTRA INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SET: There are multiple versions of the baseplate: one with white dots to indicate placement of parts, one which was light gray with blue print (without the dots), and one which was blue plastic.

Cool. I have it still, with box and everything.

[@henrysvintagetoys]

Very cool!

[@zvonimirvidovic1714]

Me too, even with a price in Austrian schillings (my parents bought it in Graz)!

[@robkuijpers9617]

@4:00 You see that the pin is the wrong mold, you need 4085B en that looks like 4085C. Just a tip to make it more original, been parting the set together myself :-) Enjoy!

[@henrysvintagetoys]

I will check it! Thanks for your message and info!

[@danielhampson]

Great memories. I have just got one! Takes me straight back to 1989 :)

[@henrysvintagetoys]

[@henrysvintagetoys]

A secret revealed 😄

[@beherenowz]

I had this! Wow.

[@henrysvintagetoys]

great!

my first lego pirates set! I got this several years later, because i was born in '87, so it's impossible to have it in '89... maybe for my birthday in '92... I still have in my collection, complete with his box

[@henrysvintagetoys]

Great story! Yes there are multiple versions of this baseplate: one with white dots to indicate placement of parts, one which was light gray with blue print, and one which was blue plastic.

I loved that set, but never had one. Good review.

[@henrysvintagetoys]

Thanks for your nice comment!

the pirates or knights where never my theme, but still awesome sets

[@henrysvintagetoys]

That's strange because for many fans, including me, these are the nicest and most interesting themes to collect. There are also a lot of sub-themes of Castle that make collecting fun because sometimes there are only a few sets of them per theme. So you can also collect nice subthemes of certain themes, which I will do in the future, because collecting everything turns out to be impossible :-)

@@henrysvintagetoys everyone has they own favorit themes, mine was allway's Space at the first place ;)

@@reyvenpl3525 there are some reviews about classic space and expolriens on my channel. I try to find nice sets but they are very expensive with box and manual!
