British Infantryman (161)

 

This is the British Infantryman that first appeared in the Miniature Figurines 72/73 catalogue as PB 161. The same title is given to a second figure PB 162, hence I've added the number to the title to avoid confusion.

Both PB ranges were based on Phil Barker's books Armies of the Macedonian and Punic Wars and The Armies and Enemies of Imperial Rome. This figure is taken from illustration 61 in the first edition of AEIR.

The code numbers for the AEIR range correspond to the illustrations in the book plus '100', i.e. illustration 1 is figure 101. 

The base is stamped PB 161 on the upper surface in the usual manner.

Strictly speaking this warrior is a Briton although the model would serve perfectly well as a Gaul or German and will probably sneak his way into my Carthaginian army in the guise of a Celtiberean.
