70413 The Brick Bounty is a Pirates set that was released in March 2015. A "Name the Ship" contest was held on ReBrick from April 7 to April 13 in 2014 to determine the name of the new ship.[1] The results, which were released on May 1, 2014, revealed "The Brick Bounty" as the winning name, though the results also mentioned that it cannot be guaranteed that this name will ultimately be used for the ship.[2] However, it was later revealed that the name was retained when a list of 2015 Pirates sets was found.
