    Default Have an EB Xmas!

    To celebrate the birth of Mithra, why not get your kids some of this?







    My kids have it way better than I ever did.

    I would be creepy having a Roman legion with their faces stuck in that smile... but that is pretty dern cool. Why does the catapult fire carrots?

    Nice findings!

    I wanted to buy some of those legionaries in the first post to my son but his too young to play with them though.
    Perhaps I'll play with them until his in the proper age?

    By the way, you might want to check out Catapult Kits. I want one of these. Not for poisoning my neighbour with carrots, of course.

    So have you been hit by a carrot from a catapult? No, thought not.

    Notice how the Romans are smiling and the Gauls look menacing? Pure prejudice, that's what it is.

    Finaly some Horse archers
    (When I saw the first post I wanted to complain about the lack of horse archers)

    But now all is OK

    I couldn't find cataphracts, but I found Alexander the Great.



    The only makedonian thing I have found so far. I want a Casse Champion figurine. I bet no-one on earth could find that.
    Do you find something funny with the name Biggus Dickus?

    I saw an ad for those playmobile Romans two weeks ago, (there's a trierime with wheels too!)
    I only saw it once, I really wished I had taped it.

    The kid in it yells: "TO BATTLE!"
    ...at least put some spikes in your club for goodness sake!
