*Ahem*... not those! Coffee was only introduced in the Renaissance, from
Arabia! ;-)
(But here's a new idea - Renaissance!!! And I'd be especially interested in
this one, hehe!)

Yes, that was exactly what I was thinking of. It has an incredible potential
for new sets, it wouldn't even have to be a sub-theme of Castle (it has
enough weight on its own!)
I'd include the Arab knights in Castle, though, since their timeline is
closer to that of the Lion's and Dragon's knights.

LOL! :-)
The downside of that is the juniorization - Disney products would require a
much less "hard to build" line. For experienced builders, it would be a
nightmare!
Now, if it were a Spielberg/Lucas film set in that Era... there is no doubt
in my mind the sets would be fantastic.
