Minor Assembly Required!
1/72 scale. Re-Issue! This plastic figures set includes 48 figures in various poses with weapons and accessories!
The men in this set have hands gripping a spear or javelin, but this item has not been provided, leaving the men empty-handed. HaT say that they were not able to produce such long thin items due to difficulties with the plastic injection method used. Consequently they decided to leave the figures for the customer to arm, and the best suggestion we have so far heard for doing so is to use a plastic bristle from a broom, although some use piano wire, florist's wire or plastic rod found in model railway shops. The Greek hoplites spear was shorter than the Macedonian pike, perhaps about 3 metres long on average.
