Good point!  :::cheers:::

Poor Chumley.  I can understand the allure of metal, although missing out on all the other goodies is more than I can do.

Not sure Morian helmets go with greatswords... seems like they would get in the way and fall off often?

Who's selling it?

On ebay look for a seller by the name of Ye Alchemist. Also he has sold then through kickstarters called fantasy fighters.

Type "Wheel" into the search box
 - various sizes

They're renaissance era - so may not be suitable for 'ancient' chariots

It's a really nice sculpt of a very large and big-helmeted Greatsword!

(Just got that miniature, and was a little let down by its size.)

Yeah, Foundry, Artizan etc. real historicals tend to be smaller. They're about the Perry Dogs of War size.

On the other hand, look at the Landsknechts from the Lead Adventure Bruegelburg range, and you're pretty much in the same size category with the Ye Alchemist Greatsword. Kinda 'Big Fighters' of our era.  :-)

Have a look @ Steelfist's range and Artisan they tend to be closer to the GW supersize figures. Casting Room fit in with the Perry 6th edition  ranges especially the Tilians.

Not really. But you should sesrch for Fantasy RPG clerics, who traditionally have robes & blunt weapons. Or cultists or monks, who have robes at least. They might then need converting, to update their weapons. There are some companies doing metal spare weapons.

An example of a cultists range:
https://www.midlamminiatures.co.uk/townsfolk/KS2019-14-Plague-Cult.html

In the end, the real metal Empire sculpts are still readily available via eBay, both the older Marauder ones and those of the sixth edition. They're not too expensive.

You're selling your whole Dwarf army on ebay???
