Gladiator Maximus

QUOTE: Originally posted by Garry_Gnu hello guys! are there any "Gladiator" models out there? exactly like from the movie? or are there any models closest to it? it really looks cool in a diorama, fighting a roman legionairre in the middle of a scratchbuilt arena with people watching and..... whew! imagining it makes me tired! lol thanks!

Pegaso has as series of well done gladiators in action poses. http://www.redlancers.com should have most of these. Do a search for "Gladiator " and you'll come up with 44 or so matches. Raul Latorre also sculpted a Roman Cavalryman (dismounted) with a very close likeness of Russell Crowe. DeTara models at the same site has a two figure vignette with a Crowe lookalike and an opponenet with a helmet like one of his opponents in the movie. Your project sounds as costly as making the movie!
