I recently stumbled across a pretty large collection of Greek toy soldiers. These are really nice, pre-pianted sculpts made by Ahona or Athena. Some are by a company called Del (I think).

Some are ancient Greek warriors and some are more recent, including a huge marching band.
Anyone here knowledgeable about Greek toy soldiers?

Del Prado perhaps?

There was a company that used to make sets one could find in the touristy areas. You can know find them in some of the toy and game stores on Ippokratus Street in Exarcheia. And indeed some of them were really cool. I remeber wanting them, though my parents had a strict no toy soldiers policy. :p
