Recreación de la batalla de Numancia con Playmobil
« on: March 29, 2017, 16:51:21 »
There is currently in the town of Garray, Spain, an exhibition of Playmobil featuring a diorama of the Battle of Numancia. The exhibition is in the Archaeological Hall of Garray & will be open until Nov. 4. I've culled pictures from several different news sources of the diorama & display as it's quite an impressive set-up.

"It is a diorama of 50 square meters that houses the Archaeological Hall and that exhibits 1,500 dolls of Playmobil that tell the history numantina to the detail. It is a unique model in the world of these characteristics that has been mounted for more than two weeks thanks to the association Tierraquemada and the city council of Garray, who contacted private collectors from all over Spain and immediately received the help of AESClick, The Spanish Association of Collectors of Playmobil."

I've been clicking through to those Numantia articles, thanks for gathering the pics! Looks like a smashing setup.

I too would like to see a Celtic theme but looking at the latest Romans I am not confident they would do a good job.

Anything would be better than those "Gauls" they did awhile back. The Romans were excellent when first released. It's only not so good now because they've decided to create new sets by recycling old parts without knowing what the original designs were meant to be.

It wouldn't require a lot of new moulds either.
One sword with lobbed pommel.
One spear with wavy blade.
A shield with central spine.
Helmet - coolus type though an agen-port type would be nice too.
Neckring - clip on.
Heavy swept back hair style.
Carnyx - war horn.
Four lobbed saddle which could then be used for Romans as well.

Those are great ideas! I'd love to see such a theme.

I believe they were meant to be imitation Asterix characters.
