Victrix Ltd - 28mm Athenian Hoplites 5th to 3rd Century BC

The first departure from Napoleonics for Victrix Ltd. and their foray into the ancient Greek world has been a canny step - judging by the quality of this product.

The box contains 48 figures, contained of 6 frames (see right), each holding 8 figures. That said there are only 4 torso / leg variations on each frame, so Victrix have missed a trick in providing added variety.

The figures are moulded well, with virtually no flash and they construct easily, basically adding the head, from a selection of variants, plus shield arm and weapon arm. There are a mix of swords and thrusting spears on each frame as well as a set of arms holding a set of pipes to be played by a musician.
