That's a wonderful and most impressive Roman army, Giorginetto!  You have grand plans for an Egyptian army as well!

The Legionary Special with the green shield was released years ago prior to the Roman theme, but it's nice to see Playmobil is bringing it back to some countries.  They released this Special and the Centurion Special in a blister pack in the US a year or so ago and I was fortunate to be able to buy quite a few at a bargain price.  As Martin writes, I ended up customizing both Specials into non-Romans.  I would really like some auxiliaries with green tunics and shields!

Does that mean it is in production again in Europe? Does Playmobil do that often, bring back older sets?

I must lie down for a bit. I feel feverish.

well no only with these specials now who knows why but i don't think this has happened again perhaps a few previous years the've brought back again some old specials but in blister packages with one klicky more as well . they made some new specials but they realesed them only in germany and to the rest world they gave the old ones who knows why!!!!

Whatever the reason...
I am extatic! :o ;D :o ;D :o ;D :love: :love: :love:
I am going to try bidding on the Steck lot I found...
If I win (which I doubt...)
I will then ask for Legionnaires (4632) for Christmas. :)
(I have it all planned out! >:D )
If I loose,
I will buy 10 of the Romans and ask for 9 of these guys for Christmas instead!

How about Greece?
I will probably be over there sometime next year (in the summer)...
I could bring my Romans if we arranged a time and place. :)

By the way and that IS VERY IMPORTΑΝΤ  as i i have ordered 150 egyptian foot soldiers from playmobil hellas also  i told them i am not gonna buy them unless they get me enough egyptian leather shields for all of them , tomorrow they will tell me if thats ok or not, i will put a lot of pressure on them as i have spent a fair amount of money in playmobil hellas this year, so watch this space hopefully that will be the first of other such orders for everyone in greece , will kepp you all posted !!!!! ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

I have 30 Legionnaires,
20 Principes (Auxilary Units in a late Republic army (Ceasar's army)),
And I will most likely aquire 10 Triarii by next summer. (More Auxilary Units.)
So 60 inf. in total. 30 heavy, 20 light (or heavy, I could use them as either depending on what we need.)
And 10 heavy spear units.
I have a General's Bodyguard which includes 3 Heavy Cav, plus my General is 4.
And 1 mounted archer.

I have more auxilary units aswell. (If I were including my Eygyptian Auxilaries.)
Plus I have five Light Cav units (barbariens).

How many do you have in total?
I would assume we are not using the Eygyptian Auxilaries...?
