Got a reply from Jay at RGG: I will do all three, but they delayed the non-German versions about a month behind theirs.
Jay No word yet on the 2010 expansions, but I think these three have become the priority.

The translucent Meeples are hideous.

Completely disagree. I think they look awesome. But they will be a pain to differentiate on the board. I think having just one per color will be much more manageable.

Didn't bother asking. He already told someone on BGG that they would be out sometime this year. That's all he said apparently.
In other news, there will indeed be 6 transparent meeples in the meeple boxes! Yay! Even though the promo photo only shows 5, the sixth is displayed in the rules and the rules clearly state that there are 6 meeples and that the gray player uses the purple one. Weird how they did that, but I agree that gray and black transparent cases would probably be hard to do.

I suspect that Gwommy may have lobbied heavily or made a 'sizable cash donation' to make that happen...

Check the image at full-res here: http://boardgamegeek.com/image/889446/henry-rhombus. You can read the top of Das Phantom's rules quite clearly. Unfortunately, a couple meeples block the bottom half of the rules sheet.

I do approve of the purple containers for these. :-D Although if I were to get some, I'm not sure how I'd paint the clear yellow one to make it clear purple. If I paint it, it'll just match the rest of my yellow meeples that I painted purple.
