Auctioneer

He presides over the auction of women in one of the show scenes. We had a Park 3 version of this character as well, but this is a great update:



Davy Jones
A fun effect, Davy Jone's image is reflected onto a mist screen. Wow! Flat out wonderful design.


Skeleton Helmsman

This dead pirate once piloted a ship and is perpetually stuck in a storm. I love the rain and lightning in the ears.


The Red Head

Everyone wants the Red Head. She is waiting to be auctioned off in this famous show scene. This is a wonderful rendition, but comes after the perfect Park Starz 2 version:


Jailed Pirate
The bars in the ears are great. We at first couldn't match the figure to the exact AA, but DDG artist Casey Jones sent me the above reference photo.


Man at the Well

He plays the flute as his pirate comrades use water torture on poor Carlos.

Poor guy... whatever info he has, he is not giving it up. He is perpetually being dunked in the well. A great variant would be him spitting out water!


Mystery Chaser
Peg Leg Parrot
Guesses?

Mine: Man balancing at boat with many hats. Peg Leg Parrot.

YES!!!!!!! Love it!!!!! Perfection.
