Thraex

Ukrainian firm, ICM, has released another 1/16th scale polystyrene kit of a gladiator--a Thraex--earlier this year. Based on the kit before me, it appears that ICM assiduously studied MiniArt's offering, and has released what appears to be a truly exceptional offering! 

While somewhat similar to its predecessor, this is a much more refined, finished kit. My only regret is that it does not scale favorably with MiniArt's Murmillo, thus precluding a somewhat dramatic vignette. Hopefully, ICM will develop a series of gladiators . . .
