His reign was largely spent on crusade, and despite ruling for ten years, he spent only six months in England. He fought prominently in the Third Crusade and earned a reputation for bravery and battlefield leadership. Richard was the son of Henry II and the third of five sons, ascending the throne after the deaths of his two older brothers. This historical legacy is reflected through a minifigure and miniature character interpretation suited for crusader themed displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Greek Hoplite appears as a historical warrior archetype inspired by ancient Greek soldiers known for bronze armor, large round shields, and disciplined phalanx formations. A collectible hoplite figure released in 2013 reflects this legacy with a detailed helmet featuring cheek guards, a decorated round shield, a spear, and printed armor detailing. This design emphasizes historical accuracy in weaponry and armor, translated into a small scale figure and brick based character format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe term Asperity Infantry does not correspond to a specific historical military unit. It may represent a misunderstanding of documented infantry classifications or reference a fictional element. In some fictional contexts, Asperity may relate to the Knights of Asperity, described as wraith like beings that hunt for hosts, blending fantasy lore into the broader collection narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir Thomas Grey of Heaton refers to two historical figures associated with the Grey family of Northumberland. One was a soldier who fought in the Wars of Scottish Independence and died before March 1344, later chronicled by his son Thomas Grey. Another was a conspirator against King Henry V who lived from 1384 to 1415. Both figures were connected to Heaton Castle and represent English noble military lineage, adapted here as brick style figures for medieval storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThomas Montagu, the fourth Earl of Salisbury, was a prominent English commander during the Hundred Years War. Known for his campaigns in France, he fought at major engagements including the Battle of Agincourt and died from wounds sustained at the siege of Orleans. Summoned to Parliament as Earl in 1409 and appointed Knight of the Garter in 1414, he married Eleanor Holland and later Alice Chaucer. His noble military career and lineage are reflected through a modular figure portrayal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ascension Bowman Psychic Scout is a character from the Vitruvian HACKS action figure line, featuring a psychic archer equipped with a bow, quiver, shield, interchangeable hands, an alternate unhelmeted head, a hawk companion, and a display stand. This character blends fantasy and science fiction themes and is represented here as a building block figure inspired by the original action figure design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir Edmund de Thorpe was born in 1343 in Ashwellthorpe, Norfolk, England. He married Margaret De La Riviere on 6 October 1348 and they had at least one daughter. He held the position of sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk by 1379 and registered for military service in 1417. He died on 1 July 1419 in Louviers, France, and was buried in Ashwellthorpe. His life reflects the responsibilities of English nobility and local governance, interpreted through a small scale figure format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe term Ascension Frontlight Mercenary refers either to a character from the Vitruvian HACKS action figure line or to a gameplay role within the Project Ascension MMORPG. As an action figure, it represents a limited edition collectible character. Within the game context, a mercenary is defined as a Mercenary for Hire who can attack players of any faction and group freely in high risk zones. This dual interpretation is reflected through a brick based character designed for flexible narrative use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"King Richard the Lionheart","offer_id":48872171897088,"sku":"GH0624","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Greek Hoplite","offer_id":48872171929856,"sku":"GH0625","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Asperity Infantry","offer_id":48872171962624,"sku":"GH0626","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sir Thomas Grey of Heaton","offer_id":48872171995392,"sku":"GH0627","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Thomas Montagu","offer_id":48872172028160,"sku":"GH0628","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ascension Bowman Psychic Scout","offer_id":48872172060928,"sku":"GH0629","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sir Edmund de Thorpe","offer_id":48872172093696,"sku":"GH0630","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ascension Frontlight Mercenary","offer_id":48872172126464,"sku":"GH0631","price":4.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/0323\/8912\/files\/zGH0624GH0631_2B-_2BKing_2BRichard_2Bthe_2BLionheart_2BGreek_2BHoplite_2BAsperity_2BInfantry_2BSir_2BThomas_2BGrey_2Bof_2BHeaton_2BThomas_2BMontagu_2BAscension_2BBowman_2BPsychic_2BSc.jpg?v=1782016904","url":"https:\/\/theminifigfun.com\/products\/ancient-medieval-castle-knights-richard-the-lionheart-greek-hoplite-english-nobles-custom-brick-compatible-minifigure-toy-7154","provider":"theminifigfun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
