Our next plastic set for our Hail Caesar Ancients range will be more Romans – this time Caesarian/Republican! Here are a few preview snaps of the 3-ups from before we sent them to the toolmakers
As you’d imagine, the plastic command group comprises of centurion, standard bearer and musician. Using the same bodies as the legionaries, these will be able to be built in a variety of poses as a result.
We’ve added arms with slings to the sprues as an unusual optional extra to the gladius and pilum arms.
As you can see, these models are considerably different from our Imperial Roman legionaries with chainmail armour, oval shields and Montefortino helmet
The new plastics will be released early in 2013 and, as you’d expect, also be supported by a range of metal models.
