I like your chariot and catapult, Cheng ...

Why would you "retire" them when Playmobil's come out?

except for Slyvanian Family parts, somehow i end up keeping my 'temporary' non-PM parts...even those from Lego...its not just a quality issue...somehow a non-PM accessory just dont fit in, to me...its all in my mind :?

as for these 2...having seen the PM chariot & fire catapult...they look more correct or authentic, haha!

i understand ur views as well guys (cheng and gauius)
however i must say the catapult does look pretty authentic to me... and as richard said, why would u want to retire ur troops, they still look very capable to defend even the dangerous limes region between rhine and danube ;) :D

Cheng,

Great job on the Romans and your other new customs. When I first saw your Roman chariot and they catapult, I thought they were Playmobil parts! Really nice work on the figures as well!

Thanks for sharing!
