Not. Freikorps are smaller and thinner. |

How much smaller? A full head smaller? are there any pictures? Otto |

"About a head." All due respect to Shagnasty, but not exactly. Check out the picture here: picture I didn't have any Freikorps15 "regular" ECW available, but do have their ECW Scots. Shown here are (l to r) 2 Museum, 2 Freikorps15, 2 Old Glory and 2 Essex. I use all, and even some selected Donnington, in the same units. Yes, there is a difference, but nowhere near a "head taller". Also, if you happen to get two castings side-by-side that are a little too different, just slip a small shim under the base of the Freikorps or Essex figure when you base it. BTW – The squares in the grid behind the figures are 4mm square with differential marks every 2mm to give you an idea of overall size. You can clearly see that all of the figures are between 17.5 (Freikorps15 officer) and 19mm (Museum officer) from bottom of base to the top of the figure. And these were not "cherry picked" figures, the pikemen, drummers and other musketeers are the same size. Bill |

Thanks for the picture Burlesonbill!
They look roughly about the same size and definitely mixable. I'll be getting some soon! Otto |
