So Rebel made a mini of the shouting dude from 300? Cool! Will be a nice model for dioramas or Total Testosterone III

Nice mini. 10 dollars is a bit much though for a 28mm scale fig. maybe that's due to the big cape and multipart nature of the thing?

Unfortunately if it's supposed to be historical it is missing an important detail.

The Spartans famously wore their hair long. Where's his hair?

(oh, and they also used much longer spears)

I don't think the spartas employed giant Rhino's in the battle either, but thats not going to stop me from watching the Movie....

This looks great! Not sure about the cape...but I am so stoked for this movie....wouldn't it be cool to paint in the '300' look?

the cut out job around the metal is crap! they need a new image guy :)

mini isn't so bad, not my type of thing though :(

The sculpting isn't bad, but it's a terribly ugly miniature, IMO. I've always hated capes, robes etc. that seem to live a life of their own.

I didn't think about it before, but you are right. This would be a way cooler mini without the cloak.
