Scheduled to be available in October 2007, the Pirates of the Caribbean PocketModel game is published by WizKids.

Under an agreement with Disney, WizKids will be able to use content from all three Pirates of the Caribbean movies for the PocketModel game, which allows players to construct 3D pirate ships from pieces punched out of a styrene card. Players then use movie characters and action scenes on cards to help control the strategy of the game.

Since the debut of the Pirates line in 2004, WizKids has sold more than 20 million constructible ships to consumers worldwide. The "PocketModel platform" was introduced with the Star Wars PocketModel TCG and is being continued with the Pirates of the Caribbean PocketModel game.

Each Pirates of the Caribbean Game Pack will sell for about $4 and will feature everything a player needs to play, including two ships, one island/terrain card, a treasure or crew card, a rulebook and a six-sided die. The Pirates of the Caribbean PocketModel game will be available at hobby retailers nationwide, as well as Target and Wal-Mart.
