Wow these are really neat Ryan! I'm a big fan of those hats, I'm glad you improved on the ones Lego's already made.

Re: BrickWarriors New Products
I would love it if you mixed colors on the presents and jack in the box. Maybe even more vivid colors as well.thrash wrote:mpoh98 wrote:I agree with Aeridian, those are really cool!

Re: BrickWarriors New Products
BrickWarriors just released 5 brand new Roman themed accessories to equip your Legionnaires, including a Roman Helmet, Plume, Scutum, Gladius, and Pilum. You might think that's too many items for one Legionnaire to carry, but luckily the Scutum features a clip that the Pilum can hook into!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Re: BrickWarriors New Products
These are just too awesome Ryan, so realistic looking, I am digging the Roman helmet, Gladius, Pilum, Scutum, everything!

Re: BrickWarriors New Products
The Gladius looks terrific. The helmet and shield will be a great way for people to create Roman troops without having to buy $15 hard-to-find CMFs.
Re: BrickWarriors New Products
Helmets are good and the shields are great - perhaps the most realistic Republican-era shields ever seen.
I have to disagree on the gladii however. The broad leaf-shape was not a feature of the gladius in either late republican or early to mid-imperial times as far as I know. It looks more like a short spatha.
As a sword, especially for gladiators and other uses it is fantastic. As a classical gladius it is not even close. Luckily LEGO has made a decent gladius and it seems to be pretty widely available in LOTR/Hobbit sets and CMF.
I was really impressed with their Lobster Armour. Somehow I had missed that you could flip it back to front and it makes a lovely lorica.

Re: BrickWarriors New Products
Thanks guys!
Thanks for the comments! I considered making the Gladius have a straight edge, but as you said, LEGO already did a pretty decent job of that. I did some research to see if it would be historically accurate to not have a straight edge and I stumbled upon the "Gladius Mainz," so that's what I based the BrickWarriors Gladius on.Tedward wrote:Helmets are good and the shields are great - perhaps the most realistic Republican-era shields ever seen.

I guess my comment wasn't really based as much on historical accuracy as it was on bada$$ery

Re: BrickWarriors New Products
BrickWarriors just released 5 brand new Spartan accessories to turn your minifigs into fierce Spartan Warriors!
-Spartan Helmet
-Spartan Plume
-Spartan Sword
-Spartan Shield
-Sarissa Spear
Enjoy!
P.S. I know that the Sarissa wasn't used by Spartans...I just thought minifigures needed a nice long spear for a Macedonian Phalanx!
