Young Miniatures brings to us a Gladiator bust with 2 optional heads. The helmet can have the face mask attached or off.

Arriving in Young's traditional sturdy black box the kit is comprised of 7 resin parts.

1st head





2nd Head

Above you see four views of each optional head. Each head/shoulder section fits right into the chest part of the bust. Young has sculpted a badly scarred right eye on both heads.

Conclusion:

An exception kit of a Roman Gladiator with the optional 2nd head as shown above. Mold blocks to be removed carefully with no other seam lines visable. Highly recommended.
