Those look sweet. I'm counting Greco/Macedonian Provincial Light Cavalry, Early Greek Medium Cavalry, Tarantine Cavalry, and later Macedonian Light Cavalry in one box.

I'm actually a little surprised that there are no cloaks and Thracian caps. Not disappointed, just surprised.

The Thracian cap does not work as a single piece casting for a head. There is an undercut between the beard and the back of the cap hanging down. You can't have undercuts in injection moulded plastic unless you spend 4 times more on the tooling with sliding moulds. It would have to be built into the body as one piece otherwise. You could also use the cloaks from the Heavy cavalry set.

So is have Victrix abandoned 28mm Napoleonics? Most of what you do now seems to be for ancients (and very nice it is too).

A box of later thurophoroi would open up the range nicely to several armies of the period and would mean the infantry options of the Hellenistics were just about covered.
