Hi Kyle, I LOVED your theme! I mean, I never thought I'd ever see any Roman stuff *by LEGO*, but like you say, Rome was one of the most influential civilizations in History. So it is quite logical to have this civ prtrayed. And how nicely, must I (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.build.ancient)
