The first 1st Corps figures were like these, then they were redone, probably 2005ish or so. I had some of these with spears. I still have many of the shields- which were big for the 1st Corps hoplites. They are great for larger figures, but they don't have any interior detail. They do have very nice pin in the center. They are very smooth shields and not too rounded so they paint up nice and really take transfers well. And if you are fanatical - you can paint on the interior straps like we used to do on our Minfigs!
