To quote modern internet slang: Itou Takeshi FTW!
Just throw in some fantasy elements (like ogres and goblins and dwarves and elves and dragons and skeletons and ghosts and wizards and......)

'For the win'? Just what the heck does that mean?

Anyway...I'd want something completely realistic. No fantasy at all. Let's just see what the basics are like. Just out of interest.

I would love to see a Greece-themed line, including small hero sets, and definitely including gods and goddesses. Too bad it'll never happen.

Gamer slang. All the kids are saying it these days.

They are? I must be hanging out with the wrong kids.

The perfect thread for my first post.

Now, there are all sorts of things I'd love to see. More fantastic/supernatural elements. Classic sets (I wish I'd gotten the Yellow Castle the one time I saw it in a store). Ultimately though, what I really want is something that has already been mentioned: the sets I need to build a Medieval Town.

there are two things that'd do it for me.

ROMANS <It cannot be said enough. i mean maybe lego will do this just to shut us up?>

Or a line based on my fantasy writing. hehe Well all i have to do is sell several million books and they'll do it!

A roman line would be sweet. maybe bring back old Pirates. Castle Town would be interesting too.

For me:
LOTR; although, it seems like Lego is getting fairly close to this now...

Rome - Total War - with the various factions

Include other great nations above and beyond European ones.

Some battle-packs with dwarves/orcs in them - must have more orcs...

Romans

this could be like the viking line, or:

Romans vs knights
Romans vs Greeks

Romans vs pirates
...

TT

We want Romans!

I hope if they do have goblins/orcs that the sets come with plenty of them, but they should definitely have a faction-specific battlepack too. I'd get (at least) one.

Two Crown Knights, a dwarf and 2 orcs... probably not.

I'd really hate to see them do a Roman line, after all these years, and not have many authentic pieces. I would die if they did that and didn't have the awesome helmets and cloaks.

My most looked for "castle" piece would be a centurion helm with horsehair plumes. Sleeker than the dragon master's helmets too! I always used the Dragon Masters for Romans.

Well Forestmen and black falcons... The two greatest lines of lego castle.

However the people the forestmen are robbing are black falcons not the lion knights or whatever.

I think Shoes might be on to something here - I'd love to see an expansion of the forestmen and the wolfpack - something of a forest kingdom series with wooden castles, fortified hide-outs in waterfalls... there is a lot of possibility there.

Even better would be if they added elves.
