Persian Achaemenid 2-horse chariot

Posted by Mr. Andrea on 11 Mar 2019, 07:45

Does anybody know where I can find a Persian Achaemenid 2-horse chariot?
I searched here and there, but couldn't find any. Only the zvezda 4-horse scythed chariot or similar 4-horse metal chariots. Thanks!

Have you looked at the Newline Designs site? They have quite a few two horse chariots. They're mainly 20mm but there is a 1.72.

Thanks to all, guys.
@Fred: looked at Newline Design. Also there only 4-horse chariot.
@Peter and Carlos. Yes, Hittite chariot can make the job. The Mitannian one too http://plasticsoldierreview.com/Review.aspx?id=1049

But....I eventually decided to use the Zvezda one. I made a quick and easy modification and converted it into a 2- horse chariot.

Did you make sausage or glue of the horses you didn't use? Or did you just let them go free? Will be nice to see the result! The wagon!!! not the missing horses!
