LEGO set 6243, Brickbeard's Bounty, is a pirate ship from the Pirates theme, specifically the Pirates II branch. Released in 2009, it contains 596 pieces and presents Brickbeard’s crew alongside Imperial Soldiers and supporting characters.
Brickbeard's Bounty is a ship-based Pirates model built around the familiar conflict between pirates and Imperial Soldiers. In the Pirates, Pirates II theme path, it serves as a seafaring centrepiece rather than a small accessory scene.
The set has 596 pieces and 8 minifigures according to Rebrickable. The listed figures are Pirate - Anchor Tattoo, Black Legs, Blue Bandana, Gold Tooth, Pirate - Captain, Pearl Gold Hook, Bicorne with Skull, Soldier (Imperial Soldier II) - Black Beard, Blue Epaulette, Red Plume, Soldier (Imperial Soldier II) - Printed Shako, Cheek Lines, Maiden - Black Hair, Pirate - Green Stripes, Dark Green Legs, Dark Green Bandana, Pirate - Blue Vest, Tan Legs, Black Tricorne (3626b Head), and Mermaid - Long with Bracket.
It is suited to story play, display as a LEGO pirate vessel, or collection building within Pirates II. Compared with smaller character or location-based entries in the theme, its appeal comes from combining a ship, a captain, a crew, and an opposing Imperial presence in one set.
