BLACK HAWK TOYSOLDIER: THE TOURNAMENT 1350s
Metal and resin cast figure hand painted and assembled
The exact origin of the tournament is by no means easy to establish, but the existence of military games in ancient times is well known. Skill in the use of arms is only acquired by extended training, so no doubt even in remote antiquity men prepared themselves for warfare by means of mock combats. In fact, properly speaking, the word tournament or “tourney” refers to groups of warriors engaged in battle, whilst the term “joust” applies to just two contestants. This new collection by Black Hawk is a faithful recreation of a typical European tournament from around the 1350s, comprising of a complete set of accessories and interchangeable, multi-purpose figures, allowing for the creation of many exciting tournament settings.
