In honor of Ixalan being released, I thought we might try a forum game for a change.

Here's mine:

Dinosaurs

1) Stegosaurus [edit - no, wait, Kentrosaurus! I've just found it. It looks badass!]
2) Spinosaurus
3) That nodosaurus they found in Canada. YOU CAN SEE IT'S FACE!
4) Parasaurolophus. Sleek design.
5) The baby from Dinosaurs.

Pirates

1) The Dread Pirate Roberts
2) Tim Curry in Muppet Treasure Island
3) Ancilla Van De Leest, former leader of the Netherlands' Pirate Party.
4) This guy
5) These guys

    You do realise that Wesley spent several years sailing the high seas, plundering ships, and murdering everone that he met, right?
