I looked on TMP and TAG at comparison shots between various manufacturers thinking to add variety. I bought some Bicorne to go with TAG…bad move they are ruddy giants! I rather got the impression that they would be 'slightly' taller – not so they are (for me) unuseable.
Has anyone mixed TAG with any other makes if so which. I dont mind some variety in size as people are all sorts of heights. Any advice?
What are Old Glory like? are foundry dwarf like by comparison to TAG… are Perry OK?
The Bicornes are very nice models indeed, but I will struggle to incorporate them. Wyeaye! |

I don't know about the size of OG as I last saw them "in the flesh" about 2002. But they are great and amongst the best in the OG stable. I'm going to do Italian wars with OG, The Old OG are generally really 25mm. |

Bicorne/Redoubt/Renegade are all "large". TAG should fit with Warlord's plastics, Perry and OG. |

I would think twice about using OG figures except for their landsknechts. The others are generic boring. The TAG figures are much better. That said, I can't recommend the OG landsknechts enough. They are great. Rich |

I think the Swiss are up to the same standard as the landsknechts. |

TAG are working their way thru the Italian Wars right now and should be nearing Swiss and Landskechts soon. Might be worth waiting. |

The TAG figures are good but there is a noticeable difference when compared with Foundry, I find them quite wiry. They're not so bad alongside the Foundry / Copplestone conquistadores but the difference is more so alongside the Foundry Landsknechts / Swiss figures. It's a shame really as they're nice figures, if only they could be a little bit bigger i would buy their entire Spanish range. |

Comparison pic of a few ranges: picture TAG and Perry are almost exactly the same size.
Old Glory is very close.
Foundry varies a bit in size, the one in the pic is a fair bit shorter. |

I don't have a picture handy, but I mixed TAG's ECW pikemen with some from Perry and Foundry; once they were all in the same pile I had to check the company catalogs to sort out which were which. |
