Hope someone can help, I'm trying to work out the manufacturer of some old 15mm figures. Polish and French Napoleonic figures.

Figures are quite square and angular, though not displeasing. Cavalry figures are a 3 part casting – horse, saddle and rider. Horses are very thin (look better once saddled), and seem quite long and squat.

I think they might be Jacobite figures. Have looked on Stronghold website but can't get their gallery to open.

Jacobite had thin square/rectangle bases. they were known for fragile bayonets and ancles. they were the only company to have the minor powers, Wurtemburg, baden, sweden for many years. Back in the 1970s is when I frist bought some from modeler's Mart from Florida.

I always thought of Jacobite Miniatures as flats that have been inflated. grin Pointy elipses.

Pics? Tricky as camera is broken and can't get a decent shot from my phone.
Fragile ankles – check
Fragile bayonets (+ muskets) – check
Rectangular, thin bases – check
