A must-have support set for any Samurai army, these figures bring the color, pageantry, and commanding presence of feudal Japan’s armies to your tabletop.
During the Sengoku Jidai, Ashigaru bannermen and musicians played vital roles on the battlefield — coordinating troop formations, signaling advances or retreats, and maintaining morale through the chaos of combat. Their rhythmic drumming and high banners were both practical and symbolic, representing the honor and unity of the daimyo’s clan. This advancing set perfectly captures that moment of anticipation before engagement, adding motion and cinematic detail to your diorama or wargaming scene.
Whether you’re expanding your Perry Miniatures Samurai Command or creating a realistic Sengoku-era display, these advancing musicians and standard bearers give your army the leadership presence and cultural depth it deserves.
