I purchased the re-issued Ben Hur Playset from Hobby Bunker (at that time, Excalibur Hobbies) about 14 years ago. Recently dragged it out of storage to let my oldest play. The re-issue set comes with the red plastic stadium sections (with yellow gates), gray plastic "emperor" section and columns, two sets of figures (gray and tan), plus three chariots and lots of accessories. Really nice set for $65 (back when I purchased it). Does anyone know if the character figures have ever been re-issued? I see them very infrequently on eBay, and they command an premium and seem only to be available in purple plastic…..

I've eyed the vintage ones on ebay from time to time, but always got way outbid. I don't know much about the repros, but I think those purple ones are repros of the repros.

There is a lot of stuff online, just type in marx beh nur etc. Don't know if they recast the characters. Even the reissue is rare now.

Thanks. Yes, lots of stuff online, but mostly re-issue/recast of the "regular" non-character figures in either cream, tan, or gray. Just wondered if the three character figures (originally purple in the original play set) had ever been reissued? I have not been able to track down any reissues or recasts of the character figures (Ben Hur, Masala, Roman Emperor)
