Hi all, I finally got around writing down my thoughts on Agema Miniatures' Punic War ranges. I look at their plastic boxes, that is legionaries, velites and Hannibal's Veterans and a selection of metal and resin characters. I cover in some detail scope of the range, casting and sculpting quality, poses, conversion potential, value for money, customer service and most importantly historical accuracy.

Correction: Relic uses 'Lead Free" metal and prices are in Canadian Dollars. Not sure if I missed anything else. Thank you for your efforts towards the hobby and this review. Best, Mike 😬 |

Thank you for pointing out the slipup with Canadian Dollars. I changed it accordingly. Not sure why I thought Relic is based in the USA. The "heavy lead" is a figure of speech. However, let me know if this does not work in English,as it is not my first language. I don't think many producers these days use lead for their miniatures or mix it in :). |

Just clarifying that we are Lead Free. Thanks for your ammendments. PS. May I add my appreciation for the tunic terminating closer to mid thigh on this range of miniatures.👍 |

The tunic length is very much in keeping with the Pydna monument. A nice touch and an indication that the depictions we have were potentially used to research the final look of the miniatures. |
