Not close enough no!!! Samurai is noble fighter class living according to a certain code of honor... ninja is a covert agent, a mercenary if you will, used for sabotage, espionage, assasination!!! Two sides of the same coin!!!

As one who practices Kendo and Iaido I can tell you they (Samurai and ninja) are not the opposite sides of the same coin.  They are from opposite coins altogether.

Your description of their beliefs/actions is pretty spot-on, though.

Do you guys read japanese or chinese? There is a cool RPG game designed by KOEI, where you play as an individual in the ancient Japan. You could be a merchant, sword maker, ninja or samurai whatsoever you choose, which is awesome!!!!! 8-)

Howdy

Thank you hadoque for taking the time to post the pictures of the new sets  :wow:

Are the glasses on 5112 set printed or are they removable ? I do not have many horse themed items and do not recognize these.

The 5117 looks like an angry Asian on a rice rocket  :lol: I must have a gang of these

I am glad the chopper is back as I need parts and the new color is welcomed

The other sets are looking good and I will be getting them in 2012  >:(

I sure do hope this new Samurai  and the new Asian zoo is a taster of things to come  :crossed:

Thanks again for making my wallet feel a bit lighter

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Thast would be an interesting playmo move but what about the romans .. so further sets were developed , no roman houses , no agora ( market) , no hannibal army and elephants, what a shame that is .. playmobil created the egyptians which i think is on eof the best themes ever but even better ( imo always) were the romans and what a shame that only an arena was made and a few battle sets ... Playmobil left this undone and i hop eif they start with an Asian set they dont do the same .. want to see huts of mongol warriors and who knows japanese houses and gardens with samurai and japanese foot soldiers with banners and lit bowls of rice ... that would be so nice !!!!! In steck please ....  :lol: :lol:

Hi

As much as I too liked the Romans from what I understood it did not sell well enough to justify its continuation or expansion. Historical themes are very popular with collectors and adults but these need to sell in large quantities to parents who buy for their children especially at Christmas time. I really do not see this happening these days with the emasculation of the male species. War toys brings out creative war play the masses do not seem to be interested in.

With the popularity of things like Mighty Morphan Powers and Teenage Mutant Turtles maybe the Asian theme would have a much better chance in the US. When you go to the park you will see kids playing ninja quite often but you will never see them playing Romans .

The new horses are interesting but definitely not interchangeable for knights etc. The saddles may be standard but no way will existing barding or caparison work. Having said that the chances of my being proven wrong have just gone up I expect.  ;)

The Samurai is a nice development but not entirely unexpected. I really like the new Knight, hopefully he will be available world wide eventually.
