I espesially like the Roman legionare, Great use of accessories. How was the shield made?
It was made from 2 1*2 plates modified with horizontal bar and on the other side at the top and bottom a 1*1 plate modified with vertical clip and above that construction 2 1*4 tiles and a mechanical hook (Exo force robot hand) attached to one of those 1*2 plates modified horizontal bar. That way the hand can move closer to the shield (thanks to 1*2 gap thats open by only using 2 plates with vertical clip instead of four).

Update:

English Grenadier early 18th century (NCO):

These are awesome. You've come a long way with that style and proved it can be used for more than just cyborgs and robots.

Does the dwarf helmet on your roman guy come like that or did you modify it?

Anyways, keep up the good work.
It's a Christmas Miracle!

Just gone done going through all of these after seeing the CC frontpage features. The LEGO minifig is a classic, but I really like the more "human" scale that these figs have relative to the head, and how many detail and color options this gives for legs.
