Has any buddy seen the shield on the set 10214 Tower Bridge perhaps a templar knights faction .

This is the shild of the City of London logo and has nothing to do with a templar knights faction coming soon!

Templar knights faction? Hope you're right....

I think it would be neat if Lego continued the Kingdoms line. Perhaps they could do a remake of the Black Falcon faction like they did with the other two. That would be cool!

Honestly, I think the current Dragon Faction is meant to stand in for the Falcon faction of old. In other words, they are the non-Lion faction. They don't get the king, they get smaller castles, they are portrayed as the bad guys, and they look so much cooler.

I would expect to see a few new sets next summer. Probably something featuring the Red Queen from the Advent Calendar. I would not expect to see a new faction until the 2012 lineup at the earliest, just based on past patterns. I agree with other posts that forestmen do not make sense due to the Dragon faction already being so heavily into green and brown. Shame too. I think a new take on forestmen using Dark Green and Dark Brown parts would look awesome.

I agree with this. A new line just came out so the TLC are probably not in a rush to make a new one. Also don't the bad guys alway look that much cooler Smaller castles aren't necessarily worse though sometimes it means it is easier to acquire the faction that has this trait as the sets cost less.

Given how many people here like the Falcon faction I wouldn't be suprised to see the Falcons as one of the next factions after the Lions/Dragons are done. It would be nice to see the Falcons with a possible Forestmen (the new elf with the Stag shield). That being said I am still enjoying the current Lion and Dragon factions and am not in a hurry for what comes up next. It will come soon enough, and liberate any spare cash on hand.

They had better continue this line... I'm still waiting for the prices of those torsos and great helms to drop below a dollar each. It is quite difficult to equip 30 - 60 man units with helmets and torsos that expensive.

I guess I disagree. I think the Dragon Knights represent the older Black Knights. You could be right however.

It would be cool to see a remake of the Forestmen. Lego just made the Robin Hood and Elf figures. By the way where can I find a picture of the new Elf mini-fig?

Thanks, it looks cool. I'll have to get me one of them. Does anyone know when they release in the U.S.?

Just by looking at some of the Bricklink sellers it looks like they have been released in the northwest corner of the US already.

Oh, I live in Washington so I'm surprised I haven't seen them yet. I'll have to keep my eyes open. Thanks.

Hey guys, lets keep this about the original topic and collectifig talk in {viewtopic.php?f=13&t=19897]this thread.[/url] If you must discuss finds of the items in question, the b/s/t forum may be more to your liking but the Series 3 thread contains discussion and finds all wrapped in one. Thanks guys.

I hope we hear something official from Lego on the Second Wave soon...

Honestly it's too early to expect anything 'Official' for Kingdom's second wave, it's set to release July 2011 if I'm remembering correctly...
Sure it'd be nice to hear some news sooner rather than later but I don't expect it real soon.
