27th January 2012 - Brief update about Greeks and 54mm French kirjoitti: The Greeks are being patterned at present and we are (fingers crossed) expecting the first Athenian set to be ready for Salute. It will be a staggered release to cope with production and high demand. The Athenians will be followed by the Spartans, Thebans and then Mercenaries spaced about 2 weeks apart.

Victrix etusivu kirjoitti:Our Ancient Greek sets are being worked on at present and we thought we would give you a brief update and show off some images of these great figures.

We are looking at the first set being released around April/may. If all goes well the Athenian set could be out for Salute, but if not very shortly after. We are going to have a staggered release with the Greeks as it solves production problems. So it will be Athenians, Spartans, Thebans and then Mercenaries. With a 2 to 3 week gap between each set.

Each set will contain 48 figures with so many variations possible it is hard to count them all. Interchangeable heads with separate crests. Arm positions including thrusting, at rest and sword arms. We also have cloaks to add to figures and musician arms to make your command figures. The spears are cast separate to the hands so you can replace them with metal spears if you wish. However the plastic spears will be more flexible and less prone to breaking off than metal.

At present we are showing some positions possible with the Athenians, Spartans and Thebans. We will follow up with some more photos’ soon ( It takes Julian a long time to piece all the options together and photograph them, so he deserves a break for a week!)

Below are some images of the master resin castings. We hope you like them. We are really happy with the way they look and can’t wait for these to be released. We do have plans for more Greek and Ancient releases to follow these.
