Spartan Hoplites

The Spartans are possibly the most famous fighting men in all of history and rightly so! Spartan Hoplites were respected and feared throughout Greece, and it was long thought that no power could stand against them. Lacedaemon, with Sparta as its capital, stood firm against the ambitions of the Athenians. The Classical period saw the height of Sparta’s power as well as its eventual downfall at the hands of the Thebans.

This box allows you to build 24 Spartan Hoplites, wearing their distinctive Pilos helmets, long hair, and characteristic beards. Also included is a sheet of waterslide transfers with a selection of uniform lambda for the Hoplites’ shields and a frame of plastic bases.
