The Terracotta Army is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. It was a form of funerary art buried with the emperor in 210–209 BC. The figures include warriors, chariots and horses and were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses.

The terracotta army figures were manufactured in workshops by government laborers and by local craftsmen, and the material used to make the terracotta warriors originated on Mount Li. The head, arms, legs and torsos were created separately and then assembled, a bit like custom LEGO minifigures!

These Terracotta Warrior custom minifigures look brilliant and it’s a great little MOC(My Own Creation).
