Named after their large round shields, or hoplons, these warriors fought in tightly packed phalanx formations, where each man’s shield protected his comrade. Their discipline and unity made them nearly invincible on the battlefield, allowing city-states like Athens and Sparta to rise as powerful forces in the Mediterranean. The hoplite’s equipment, from the dory spear to the bronze armor, became symbols of Greek identity and military innovation. This Mil-Fig captures their legendary look, bringing the ancient world’s most iconic infantryman to life. This product is recommended for children six years of age and up due to small parts which could present a choking hazard. Parental supervision is strongly encouraged during play.
