Does anyone make them (post 1871) in 25/28mm, in tropical helmets?

Either Legion in helmets, or Marines in helmets.

Askari do a couple, but they're limited to two figs, and apparently won't be expanding the line anytime soon.

Maybe Tiger miniatures or Askari?? I am not sure.

Possibly Redoubt.

Tiger doesn't seem to carry the French – nice Germans and Dutch, though.

Redoubt has some nice figs – I like the French Marine Nordenfeldt gunners, only they're crouched around the gun. I'm looking for crew for 80mm and 90mm pieces.

I may have to start decapitating Old Glory figs, only I seem to be doing that a lot, lately.

I was going to mention Askari Miniatures. But I saw you already tried them.

Blake,

Askari's French gunnery line is limited at the moment to two Europeans and some Senegalese. He mentioned releasing some naval artillerists in berets, which may have to do until I can start swapping heads.

Cheerio,

Here they are as demanded. No compromise.

Have Fun.
