Since I am slowly slipping into this genre, I am going to need all the help I can get so please bear with me…

So on with the questions…

Does anyone know where I can pick up 18th Century 25-28mm figures of Royalty or Nobility?

Thanks in advance…

You can also get Frederick, Seydlitz and the Duke of Brunswick from Minden Miniatures.

Front Rank has British personalities in their Jacobite Rebellion range and some SYW personalities too.

Tradition /Willie also has 'old school' civilians, and Jacdaw miniatures is issuing a few new in the same style.
Many 'pirates' ranges have a 'Governor' (and his daughter).

On a personal basis I feel rather flattered that they are referenced as 'French Beauties' link .

See also Blue Moon link but they are sold by rather large sets; same for Foundry.

Old Glory's "Fat Governor and Creepy Assistants" pack in their Pirate range has many usable figures.

To make things unambiguous, the parasol-bearer is Eureka (converted Grassin) and the young lady Black Scorpion:

from link

"Grafin Keira von Ritterfeld and her escort and  parasol bearer, the dashing Leutnant Orlando von Blume of the Witzboldfeld Chasseurs. Her father, the Freiher von Ober-Feld is the Oberst-Inhaber of the regiment (also known as die Jaeger von Ober-Feld)."
