Some how I picture sloop type sail ships going up and down the Missouri in the 1830s and 40s.

Victorian and western themes can always be combined to have the city and the wild west. They are of roughly the same era after all.

Absolutely!

You could use the Grande Mansion as a Southern Plantation for the Civil War or several different ones for street scenes in a large town.

Out here on the prairies brick buildings were super popular when the railway arrived - trees were few and far between but freight cars loaded with bricks were easy to come by.

Then mail-order houses became popular (http://www.civilization.ca/cmc/exhibitions/cpm/catalog/cat2104e.shtml) with Eatons, Aladdin, BC Mills, etc in Canada and Sears Roebuck in the USA.

A shame that the vikings in DS are the most common ones. The blonde one in purple with scalemail and the one in red green are the two I already have, and which seem to be the most common ones. Was hoping to expand them a bit with some new friends to have a bit of a viking fighting force.

Also really torn about getting the schooner.. I have no place for it but I do want it. Going to see if I can make place for it since its such a nice neutral ship that could be used for so many purposes in the pirate theme.

I love the vikings, but the options regarding the klickys were.. odd. In the first batch there were a bunch of repeats. PLEASE.

It would have been great to see different ones released... especially in less... LOUD colors.

The new stuff is up on the german site! might help to get a better look at it all.  :)

I noticed a hansel and grettel set that wasnt shown before, looks like fun.

The schooner is looking great, but the dark blue parts they used to wear are dark grey now it seems. The set of three viking figures cant be found, kind of hoping myself that the figures in the set will be different than what was shown earlier.
