Hi Malc

Thanks for sharing this duo ...certainly so much action in it ...be interested to see how is cast up and goes together

Ordered mine Direct from Pegaso and when their lockdown ended it arrived in a week. Absolutely fantastic casting with bags full of parts. A real work of art and a painters dream.

This has been for sale on Pegaso’s website for like a month. I can’t understand why some companies can’t take the few minutes it takes to post a new release here on PF. I’m sure a lot of you are like me and tend to buy what we see here.

Thanks to Malc and all others that post releases

The idea is excellent - but there are many faults with this - the Roman still has his gladius in the scabbard (if I'm being attacked I think i'd be reaching for my sword to fight back with all of my strength) - secondly and following on from that the standard bearer isn't struggling the German has no knife to his throat or his side - he is a trained and disciplined Roman soldier who is not going to surrender lightly - the scene is just not real - looks more like they are dance partners.

As I said I like the concept and few changes it would be an epic scene - so buy it and do some work on it - perfect.

There is the possibility the Roman could've been taken by surprise, thus the gladius still in the scabbard. Just a thought.
It's a very dramatic piece and I like regardless of any faults.This is going to be a very popular piece and I think we'll see many gracing the tables at the shows.

I was very surprised too, which is why I checked with Nap first before posting in case I'd missed it.
I'm very pleased El Greco brought this piece to my attention.

Yes, I agree with you - I don't dislike it all - having visited the Teutoberg Forest and the site of the ambush - it appeals even more - But.....

The Roman has both hands free as he is trying to remove the arm around his throat.... OK enough is a enough.

True but it is a miniature and would not be complete without the Aquila in the other hand.

Mine arrived today, great service from El Greco.
All I can say is Wow.
