Roman Tubicen Players
Roman Tubicen Player
Resplendent in his Bearskin and with his personal arms, the Tubicen player is equally at home signaling the attack or even a retreat on the battlefield. He was also utilized for announcing the arrival of VIPs and/or a new troop detachment. Away from the battlefield, the Tubicen player could also be found at celebration parades held in Rome and other major cities across the empire.
Thirty-six or thirty-eight Tubicen (Musicians) were assigned to each Roman legion. The Tubicen would be blown twice each spring in military, governmental, or religious functions, known as the Tubilustrium. It was also used in ancient Roman triumphs and was considered a symbol of war and battle.
This all-new Legionnaire with Tubicen comes in a box containing two figures.
Limited to 50 worldwide.
Due to be released in AUGUST 2024.
