Unaffordable is what they are.
Or at least we are made to think so by the sellers offering them...

Those are way too high-quality. Plus, by every indication Ragnar is a pussyfoot. That guy looks like he shat that sword out, personally.

Also, a note about those above HQ Mercenary-a-likes. They are wearing boots. The HQ mercs are wearing caligae. Strange, I guess.

The footsoldier is also wearing caligulae. (So that's what those look like!)
The Ragnar dude has a metal peg leg it seems :P

And as much as I like this mini in many respects, the face on his torso disturbs me to no end.

I suspected some strange military footwear--but why toes? Thanks for clearing up that mystery with some history.
