This review is from: Pirates of the Caribbean Chess in Collectible Tin (Toy)

The item arrived with a dent in the tin. I didn't send it back because I figured it would probably get dented anyway - we plan to use it as a working chess set as much as a collectible. A lot of the time it's hard to tell what chess piece the Pirates character represents so it makes the game somewhat tedious, which takes away from the fun a little bit. I'm thinking we'll get used to what pieces are what, be we haven't gotten there yet. One big caveat: I can't imagine anyone learning to play chess with this set since it's so hard to tell which pieces are which - I would consider it to only be appropriate for a somewhat experienced player. It does look cool though, so it definitely makes a good collectible.
