Sunken Treasure
My first Lego Pirates set was Burried Treasure from 1989. A very small build but how nostalgic for me. Why? It came with a treasure chest with 'real' golden coins and with the very first Lego monkey. For me back then, the monkey was the biggest treasure. So, I thought for this challenge, let's visualize that.
Years later, in 2025, a Lego City diver find this now gilded monkey on the bottom of the ocean right under the beach island where the pirate found his treasure in 1989 - he is still enjoying it. The beach has become greener and lively.
One can only find the golden monkey when opening 'the doors of the sea'. Make sure to open the door with the one fish first. Afterwards you can open the left door with two sea creatures on it. I made it so in order to rise tension before getting to the real treasure!
I also included an alternative build as was always suggested on the back of the box in the eighties. I hope you all like it!
