Publisher's Description of COBI Roman Chariot - 93 pieces (Imperium Romanum)
In ancient Rome, the chariot was mainly used as a representative vehicle. Races organized in hippodromes were also very popular. This is also the case with us. The block chariot, to which two white horses are harnessed, is driven by a triumphant general, ready for a ceremonial entry into the Eternal City!
Place Roman legionaries from the set with figures behind the chariot so that the leader can truly lead! Do you think it is too early for triumph? Combine the chariot with the set containing gladiator figures and create a battle scene! Get yourself a few chariots, mix figures from other sets and organize races even more exciting than those presented in the movie Ben-Hur! Build history, piece by piece, with COBI!
