DILEMA! :o

[Wolf Knight]

Are you planning on having only early Republican Romans or are you going to have some Imperial Romans too?

Justindo do not puit more dilemas into WarriorOfToys!!!! 
Let him first get all the romans he can get and then he can organise them! 

Sorry but I thought your question, a very important one, might bring even more confussion in WoT dilema!!! All in good intention!!!

Personally I like both kinds or roman representation!!!

hello w.o.t., 
trying to help you with your dilemma (i think the word has 2 "m") i will just add the information i have about the napoleonic theme. 
compared to the other "families" the redcoats are a very small band. 
i think playmobil produced them to go with the pirates and they appear mainly in sets related with buidings - forts and harbours, http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=4690.0.
and even in this case, the red is not the main color.
1 green coat in 3859/3914.
1 red coat in 3351.
2 blue coats in 3133/3619, 3 in 3112, 2 in 5727, 1 in 3127, 2 in 5775 and 3 blue 5009/5881 (a total 11).
without using the very ancient 3387, 3388, 3544 or the less ancient 3795, 3857 you could only "produce" a red coat army using the ds sets 7675 (soldiers) and 7676 (captain) - this is to say only 2 different uniforms.
i am not happy to say this but, to build an army, tha medieval theme or the roman theme seem clearly a better option.

Thanks all for your replies.
I have recently learnt that I have enough to buy BOTH the Medieval and Roman armies.
I am going to build 3 centuries, 1 Hastatii, 1 Principe, and 1 Triarii century.
So, a republic army.

Cachalote,
I was not going to use the original redcoats,
I was going to use some bits and pieces from other klickies and form a totally unique regiment.

That sounds like a great plan, WarriorOfToys!

There seems to be only one problem...
Playmobil DS USA refuses to call me back!
I have called 3 times
And the one time they left a message I missed it and now they wont call again.

US DS is pathetically awful and although I didn't think it was possible, it has gotten worse!  After waiting over two months for my order, I finally received it yesterday and there are numerous incorrect parts included.  This is after they informed me that 80% of the parts I wanted were either discontinued or unavailable.
