I discovered at Walmart some fairly nice 1st century legionaries and archers, in the popular 28mm scale most commonly used by wargamers that use metal miniatures. These are plastic and designed for a game called "Heroscape". They have perfect Leg XIIII shield emblems and were probably inspired from my book, in which many Roman products from China are using. This is a supplementarty pack for the main game, which seems to be a history-fantasy free-for-all with historic Samuarais, WWII GIs, Dragons, dinosaur-riding orcs, sci-fi robot types and everything in between. The figures average at about $1.50 each, which is not bad for hand painted figures of this scale. It would be a chance for someone to build up a ready to go army without taking the time to paint them. Alas, I already have over 10,000 painted Romans in the smaller 23-25mm scale, so they are of no use to me now.
