So based on two other threads: "Big and Beefy"
Front Rank
Calpe
Elite
Eagle (maybe) "Taller and Slimmer"
Perry
Foundry
Sash & Saber
Victrix
Alban This sound right? |

Forgot to add… How do these groups match up height-wise? ("mix and match") Into which group would you put Old Glory (current sculpts) and Redoubt figs? |

Add Trent to 'Big and Beefy'. |

I would say that Foundry and from what I have seen Eagle figures are closer to a true 25mm figure.
No-one has seen any Victrix yet and I havent seen any Sash and Saber personally.
All of the others are a bit taller generally speaking-true 28mm with the Perry figures being just a tad smaller than Front Rank,Calpe,Elite. |

Elite Miniatures are anything but "Beefy". They are actually 30mm figures so I guess that "tall" is correct, but their anatomical proportions seem to be correct, hence they are "thin". They do not fit in that well with Front Rank and Calpe figures. |

Should you have another category "almost true 25mm" where you can put Dixon and Foundry Revolutionary wars? |

"Should you have another category "almost true 25mm" where you can put Dixon and Foundry Revolutionary wars?" You can add Parkfield to this category |

Redoubt should go in the "big and beefy" category unless you create a "butt-ugly" category… |
| Travellera | 31 Jul 2008 4:49 a.m. PST |
Where to put Britannia and Steve Barber? |

Eagle Figures are a little more complicated now. They have a new Spanish range that is definitely in the slim category and they are going to upgrade their older Napoleonics to match in a more lifelike proportions way. So I would say they are transferrig between the two categories! |

Hmmm…to complicate things a little, I would put Sash & Saber as small 28mm. They are almost the same size as the 25mm Foundry (a tad taller) and are smaller than Perrys. |
gets started with Flintloque.
