Political controversies aside, I think you have a point there.

Jeremy Corbin, eh? Now that is a comparison I wasn't expecting! I am planning on adding a mounted Consul to the range - maybe I'll make him Cameron-esque??

Greg - Agema

For purposes of conversion, how do the Agema figures match up with the other plastics out there?

I have just used a bunch of the Agema heads on Victrix hoplite bodies and I think they work fine (don't have any photos yet sorry.)

I will get some Victrix in a bit and can then also supply some photos with headswaps etc.

That would be very cool!

I have some made up. I will photo and post them up tonight.

Cool!

Here is a comparison shot. The figure on the left is a Victrix figure with an Agema head, whilst on the right is an Agema body with a Victrix head. Apologies for the shoddy camera work.

Whilst both work, the Agema head is slightly too large for the Victrix body, which needs to have most of the neck removed. Conversely the Victrix head doesn't sit well on the Agema body as there is no neck and you need to add one with a small pice of sprue.

Hope that helps.

Below, some Victrix Greek hoplite bodies with Agema Carthaginian heads:

They are slightly smaller than the Victrix heads they replace but I think it still works okay. A lot of the Punic helmets are based on Hellenistic types so this also makes for a useful source of heads for later Successor troop types.

Thanks for those pics! Looks good!

I'm keen to get some of these Punic/Numidian heads but they aren't listed on the Agema Website. Anyone know how to get them ?

Have you tried writing Agema, and asking? The owner usually responds fairly promptly.

I was thinking of getting the plastic roman box set from Agema, but hearing that there's only 5 different models is kinda disappointing.
Also, I noticed that Agema gives its republican principes subarmalis armor with or without a pectoral. Is that historically accurate? I haven't seen any depictions of rank and file using subarmalis until the Marian reforms.

If you get the Hannibals Veternas you can have a few extra poses. ie this guy I just did
