New Italeri 1/72 Roman miniatures...
#1
Apparently in segmented armor too. Just lookin' around on the Italeri site and found this:<br>
<br>
www.italeri.com/articolo2...n+Infantry<br>
<br>
<img src="http://www.italeri.com/Photos/6047.jpg"><br>
<br>
The sad thing about the Italeri site is it doesn't show figures, product details, or anything like that. Only the box art, and I doubt this good little sketch is the box art.<br>
<br>
Also the title, "Cesar's Wars - Roman Infantry" is inaccurate, as the segmented armor is later than C<b> a</b>esar's "wars." Actually, the Italeri Republican infantry is an excellent representation of Caesarian era troops, complete with a mounted Legate that I believe is supposed to bear a specific resemblence to the Julian.<br>
<br>
Anyone know more about all this? I'm still looking around on the 'net for more info myself. <p></p><i></i>

Cesar's War... well the outfit is correct for many of the Caesars, Maybe Augustus, and Tiberius, and Caligula, and Claudius, and.... just not Julius.... <p>"Just before class started, I looked in the big book where all the world's history is written, and it said...."

yep<br>
I got a confirmation email from Italeri, they are a<br>
reissue of the ESCI figures, and you already have plenty of those right?<br>

I've stocked up on ESCI Romans, but a reissue is great. It'll hold me until those HaT figures get out. <p></p><i></i>
