Minifigure Roman Legion LEGO Alternative

a Roman Legion, along with their shields and weapon accessories.

Here are the details:

Minifigures (12 PCS):

• Each figure is approximately 5.8cm (2.3 inches) tall.
• They are all identical in appearance, representing Roman legionaries.
• Helmet: They wear silver-colored Roman Imperial Gallic type helmets (“galea”) with large, transverse red crests (“crista transversa”), which were often associated with Roman officers like Centurions, but here seem to be used for all figures.
• Armor: The figures have dark grey or gunmetal-colored body armor, resembling “lorica segmentata” (segmented plate armor), with printed details.
• Tunic/Skirt: Underneath the armor, they wear a red tunic with a brown “pteruges” (a skirt of leather or fabric strips) over it.

Accessories:

• 12 PCS Pauldrons/Shoulder Armor: These are black, curved shoulder armor pieces.
• 12 PCS Pilum Holders/Backpacks (less clear): These are black pieces that could be for holding pila (javelins) or represent small packs. (The image isn’t entirely clear on their exact function).
• 12 PCS Shields (“Scuta”): These are large, rectangular, curved shields, characteristic of Roman legionaries. They are red and feature golden designs, including wings, lightning bolts, and possibly other Roman symbols like wreaths or the SPQR lettering (though the detail is small).
• 4 PCS Weapon Sprues: Each sprue contains:
  • One silver-colored “pilum” (Roman javelin) with a flanged or mace-like head at the other end (a somewhat unusual combination for a pilum, but common in toy soldiers).
  • One silver-colored Roman short sword (“gladius”).

This set depicts a troop of Roman soldiers in full battle attire, equipped with their characteristic shields and weapons.
