11th Century Knights PAIR 2 - with Spear / Sword / Shield options

11th Century Knights PAIR 2 - with Spear / Sword / Shield options

28mm scale white metal 

This listing is for "PAIR 2" from a set of 6 rider figures available                  (Pair 1 and Pair 3  are listed separately )

This "PAIR 2" set of 2 riders  are shown in the photos  (they are 2a + 2b in product photo)  . They will come with  a random selection of 2 from our four standard Spanish Horses  .

We've listed them this way, because across the three pairs available, you can then build your cavalry units to the style you require - more Northern Iberian/Christian or more Southern/Muslim-influence - by doubling up certain riders or mixing & matching weapon styles.

We add a separate little sword-in-scabbard with each model. - Simply glue the scabbard in the position you prefer to add more realism and a unique pose - we found this so much more lifelike than trying to cast them flat on the bodies  PLUS , then if you choose Sword Hands , you simply clip off the hilt and glue the empty scabbard in position instead , for more flexibility, realism and detail !

Please note - one of the horses comes with a separate LH rein section .It allows us to replicate the iconic Reconquer designs that add so much flamboyance to the riders ... by adjusting this piece before you glue it , you can accommodate the different left shield arm height of different riders .. we've shown photos of how this level of detail has been achieved with 3 of the riders - you just don't get this in standard casting !... and if you just want the reins to the saddle front, then you can simply clip off the end and glue against the horse's neck.

SO, FIRST CHOICE IS  IF YOU WISH  YOUR TWO RIDERS WITH SPEARS OR SWORDS IN HAND , OR ONE OF EACH

SECOND CHOICE :  LET US KNOW  IF YOUR RIDERS REQUIRE STANDARD SWORD/SCABBARD OR THE "ORNATE" VERSION THAT MAY BE BETTER SUITED FOR ARAB/MUSLIM/SOUTHERN SPANISH FORCES .

AND FINAL CHOICE :  to help further with the personalisation and multi-purpose, there's a choice for the shields included in the unit price :

  • a)  2 x Kite shield - plain                                                                                             ( measure 23mm x 10mm so fit many transfers/decals to suit either force )
  • b)  2 x Kite Shield - patterned                                                                                   ( 2 random patterned as per photos - more suited to "Christian" forces )
  • c)  2 x Almond Shield - plain                                                                                     ( measure 19 x 10 mm - more for "Christian" forces)                       
  • d)  2 x Round Shield - plain                                                                                      ( just over 13mm diam. so fit many transfers/decals to suit either force ) 
  • e)  2 x Round Shield - patterned                                                                              ( 2 random of patterns as per photos , more suited "Muslim" forces )

And after all that ! , in a small attempt to move away from plastic, we offer a 2mm mdf base - our own take on the standard 50 x 25mm gaming base , but with rounded corners, so they fit in a standard formation but look better if used stand-alone, or a 40mm round version for those using the figures in fantasy/LOTR mode :-)

Notes :

NB 1 !! : You are buying the unpainted bare metal items as shown in the actual product photo ... they do NOT come with bases unless you select the optional extra ones.

NB 2 !! : Due to the nature of metal casting, finally assembly may require superglue and probably a small file or drill for making parts fit neatly etc ..... (we say this as standard , but the  hands do fit pretty well)
