Having already shown these:
 |
| G3, 'Hoplite with spear, Corinthian helmet crested' |
I thought it might be an idea to include some of the others in the Garrison 20mm Range. I'm not showing Spartans, Thebans or Ionians - done them, will do them, part of Persian army. That last point I'll now wreck by including a unit of G2 used as Carians:
 |
| G3 used as Carians with Persian officer and 25mm G3 carrying a cock standard. |
 |
| G2, 'Hoplite (for use with phalanx) with pike, Corinthian type helmet crested' |
 |
| G16, 'Boeotian hoplite (for use with phalanx) and pike Boeotian helmet' - these are actually Grant figures. | |
The next one is one I found with hand cut off at the wrist. I added a spear and released it, don't know if the original was ever releasedbut the description doesn't sound right!
 |
| G18, 'Hoplite with thigh and upper arm plates Thracian helmet crested' - don't think so, really, but the code was on the base. The shield pattern is the same pattern I used on my first Minifigs 'S' Range Greek unit and is in my old University colours. |
Thanks for finding the follower thingie bob.
ReplyDeleteThe G2 hopolites reminds me the figures I bought in the Toy Tub in the early 70s,sadly long gone.I wish I had them still...

It's a quirky figure. The spear is quite fragile and the figure itself almost like a flat - looks good as a side view though.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the shields!
ReplyDeleteThat's the area I've always concentrated on - really, it's the bit you notice the most on armies as opposed to individuals.
