Details
This is the officially licensed reproduction of the shield used by King Leonidas and his Spartans in Frank Miller's "300." The movie, which is based on Frank Miller's graphic novel by the same name, portrays the battle of Thermopylae in which 300 Spartans stood against the innumerable horde that King Xerxes of Persia had brought to conquer Greece. The shield is made of resin and cast on a metal frame, and features the same styling and detail that you can see in the movie itself. This shield features a leather grip brace on the back of the shield, matching the handle that the Spartans actually invented. The shield shows the battle damage of three days of hard fighting against Xerxes warriors. This is a limited production piece, with only 300 numbered pieces ever being produced. This will be a sure favorite for any collector as it is a movie accurate piece.
