I don't know. I just bought something the other day and the small catalog that came with the set did not have the romans. They also only listed the dragonland theme. No knights were in there either. I know in germany new knights and castles are coming later this year so I'm assuming the current knight theme will become what's coming to germany this year. I'm no expert though on this. But I did sleep in a holiday express inn last night. :)

There are no Romans on the German Playmobil site so they have already been withdrawn there.  They will be withdrawn from other sites in 2011 if normal practice is followed.

Yes , when i was in the UK i bought them all pretty much in two orders. Still to take pictures of my Arena, made of two arenas , the two emperors stands facing each other and in between the plane walls replaced all round with seats , Hopefully will take some pictures in the near future , i have never set it up !!! To make it right i have bought from Playmobil DS  the chains and fires to put in the extra walls etc etc so it all looks good .  :)

I thought of that idea too...I did not like these walls and i wanted to try if an arena can be built with the seats sections...I bought two arenas for that purpose but i thing their pieces are insufficient.. Looking forward to that picture Giorginetto!!!

Even though the Romans are being discontinued, it looks as if they'll eventually resurface via Direct Service.

Giorginetto, I love those Romans!  I'll have to set up my Romans sometime to photograph them.

Thank you all for your kind words, i was very tempted before buying lots of medieval and steck in the past 6-8 months to buy huge numbers of romans ( was thinking of having 1200 leggionaires etc etc ) and lots of egyptians , pyramids, houses etc etc , ships for both sides but diddnt do so ... Shame really no roman houses were made , an agora etc etc nice combos with egyptians, gauls and africans from accessories catalogues, shame really it seems romans didnt do very well... I love the scorpio shields, i have 52 of them , horse mounted ...  ;D
