Are the two part heads really good idea? - Review of Late Saxons/Anglo Danes from Victrix

Welcome to my review of Vitrix  Late Saxons/Anglo Danes bo- er, plastic bag. The review of sprues and two elephant in the room: How they fit on the bases and its the two part heads really good idea? And as bonus, comparision with other models from Gripping Beast, Footsore and VnV miniatures.

As per Victrix description: The Late Saxon/Anglo Dane set contains 60 superbly detailed miniatures.

This exceptional 60 figure set of 28mm hard plastic saxons has superbly detailed figures and a myriad of additional parts allowing hundreds of options when building the figures. Perfect for skirmish games such as SAGA.

This set is fully supported by a range of shield transfers and banner sheets from LBMS.

The armoured figures representing more well off and equipped select Fyrd or Theigns. The Unarmoured represent the standard not so well off Fyrd but still equipped with a stout shield and assortment of helmets and spears, swords and Saxes. Hand axes have not been included in this set not because the Saxons did not use hand axes but because the Viking set has a plethora of spare hand axes. You can use a lot of these with the new Saxon set.

The command frame has a monk and some armoured warriors that can be used as commanders, standard bearers and also when equipped with double handed Dane axes as Anglo Danish Huscarls.
