One thing I would really like to see produced in plastic is…
foot command-type figures (officers, drummers, standard bearers) that match-up with 1/72 scale Napoleonic figures in size, heft, and detail.
Yes, there are some 20mm metal figures that are relatively close, but they are just that, close. Some are too skinny, some lack detail, and some lack both size and detail. I have not really found any 20mm metal foot command figures that match-up very well with 1/72 scale plastic figures.
Plastic figures have an amazing amount of detail, are relatively cheap, and with todays plastic primers, are easy to paint and protect. All in all, they offer an attractive alternative to metal figures.
But they need appropriate command figures! One thing that sets this era apart from others is the colorful command figures and flags of period. No Napoleonic battlefield is complete without plenty of flags on the table!
So come on, someone produce command figs that match todays 1/72 scale Napoleonic figuress in size, heft, and detail!
