Hello!


King Mathias is advertised in the regular catalogue (not the S@H one but the cat you get in the toy store). At least in the German version. Dunno if this set is supposed to come with stickers in Germany as well, though. Probably not, as we don't get those sets with these cards that are listed in the "gear" section, either:

The KK2 sets that I recieved so far came without those cards.


Bye

Yeah, we had a thread on this a month or two ago. Not too much interest, as I recall...

Awsome, I'll probably by that if it comes with the cape. Other than that, why are they keeping this line going!

That's too bad. I think some of the new cards are cool, but the game you are supposed to play with them seems sort of lame.

What! The crown is under the lion. Is bad enough on the flags where the crown is a foor over the lions head, but under it! Thats terrible.

This cape will be most useful for the Vladek Bionic Knight I have...besides someone will probably want the cards...

One word: Useless

A little kid might like this, but I'm not going to spend $8 - $10 on a set that will be more of a space hogger than anything else. Such design does not even deserve to carry the name "Lego" on it

Maybe I'll get it if there is a demand for the LIMITED EDITION ones where you can't buy them in some countries.

I can't tell precisely what that cape's made of. Does anyone know? I'm thinking we may have a customizer special....
