Saint Seiya: Poseidon Chapter Pillar

In a plot device that is suspiciously similar to the enchanted arrow - 12 hours - 12 Gold Saints to defeat device of the Sanctuary Chapter, the Bronze Saints once again have to defeat a fixed number of opponents in order to save Athena, corresponding to the destruction of an equal number of pillars of Poseidon's underworld domain.

The pillar was picked up in China and was a lot cheaper than the clock tower. It's not as detailed and clearly undersized even for my smaller figures, but it serves it's role as an objective marker, which is all it really is in a game.

Saint Seiya: Sanctuary Clock Tower

When Athena takes the battle to the Sanctuary, she is wounded by an enchanted arrow upon arriving. The arrow will gradually inch deeper towards her heart over a period of 12 hours, finally killing her. The Bronze Saints have to make it through the 12 Gold Saints' temples to reach the Pope in order to stop this. To mark the passing of time, 12 flames are lit on the clockface of the giant clock tower and with each passing hour, another of those flames is extinguished.

While Greek themes aquarium pieces can provide most background scenery for this project, the clock tower is a really specific and iconic item and I managed to pick up a goodlooking one that didn't cost an arm and a leg while in China. Designed to go with the larger action figures, for which it is undersize, it is a suitable size to go with the smaller mini figures. It comes with separate little blue flames that can be attached to the clock face, but I left them off for these pictures
