Most are available from Foundry...sculpted by Mr. Copplestone. His crowning achievement IMHO. Pretty sure the middle guy is an old Gladiator Wars figure...well sculpted but not my favorite line. That said, if you like gladiators (and less than half of you seem to... ;)) I've more of it to come in the next few rounds.

I think the only thing that sepperates and gives the edge to the "Black Watch" is the photo style, Blacks are against a contrasting background and a little bigger showing the paint work better. The Glads are also fine looking but suffer slightly by blending a bit into the background (which personally I love, got my vote!) and resulting smaller figure size.

Just mee little 2 cents worth  lol
