a metaphoric symbolic situation of today Europa who knows… Photo blocked by adult filter: "Captive Europa *adult*" Photo blocked by adult filter: "Captive Europa *adult*" We continue to develop the series that we have begun, and this time we continued the development of the series "Ancient Greek Myths Series". Kit no #24069 shows an essentially eternal story with a captive girl being rewarded to the winner. Perhaps our kit reflects the myth of the Trojan War, perhaps a slightly different reading of the myth of the abduction of Europa by Zeus, or perhaps the modellers will find their own reading of this story. from link |

If it's Zeus, he should have the form of a white bull, right? |

…indeed should be a bull instead of a horseman of course :) Photo blocked by adult filter: "" Photo blocked by adult filter: "" |

Before the time of stirrups riding just with yourself on a horse was not a small feat. Hauling an unwilling passenger around is a show of skill probably worthy of a statue – for the horse no less then the rider. That said, I fail to recognize the "Greek Myth", though it certainly reflects the motivation of not a few of these ancient (or any other) warriors. |

Looking at the second (unpainted)figure it appears to represent the Greek Myth of the chap who pushed his entire hand up some poor girls bottom while riding a horse! (or is about to in the model!) Cheers Roger. |
