Replicant Pikemen (1 Viewer)

[Scott]

I picked these up at a sale at The Hobby Bunker. I put off getting them until a sale as they go for $28.00 for a bag of 6. There are some problems in the hands and the wobbly pikes included. I use 1/16" diameter plastic rod for pike, cheap and replaceable. If you convert the short pike "partizan" figure to a pikeman you get 12 pikemen in 2 bags. They have some panache over the excellent Call To Arms pikemen but I can't see trying to build a large force at the price when CTA gives you 16 figures to a box for $12.00. The Replicant figures do have the problem of flash and some molding flaws not caught by quality control. They will get a little extra work to make a nice unit for close-up photos. I put some Replicant figures in the background that are not included in the bags.
