A much-loved legendary figure in British folklore, the story of Robin Hood has inspired generations of working class people (Guy of Gisbourne would call them peasants) because of his steadfast defiance against oppression and injustice, perfecting his own brand of social support by taking from the rich and re-distributing it to the poor. 

Always at odds with the tyrannical Sheriff of Nottingham and his men, Robin Hood and his followers used Sherwood Forest as their hideout, but would regularly mount raids against the Sheriff’s men and their strongholds, usually relieving them of a chest of gold or treasure whilst they were there. 

Recreate these historic clashes in Sherwood Forest with this classic Airfix playset.

Although seen as invaders at the time, the Romans had a profound influence on Britain and the British way of life, bringing law and order, roads, buildings, currency, and taxes to a land which may not have been as barbaric as they would have everyone believe, did benefit from some structure and organisation. 

Other than our weather, the Romans liked it here in Britain and it was turned into a mini Rome. Before they left, their network of forts protected Britain against a succession of invaders from across the water. 

And they left Britain with so many things we still benefit from to this day, along with over 400 years of fascinating history. 

This Roman Fort and Figurines Set is part of our Vintage Classics range, bringing diorama fun to your workbench in 1:76 scale.
