Hi Guys I recently placed an order with the guys at Westfalia (28mm) Miniatures. I ordered some 'Rude Highlanders', (a pair of miniatures), a set of eight Hanovarian Kiemannsegges Jaegers, a set of three French Engineers in body armour and a set of four Prussian Medical staff. There is even a French Ammunition Cassion in the mix. You can see the review of these miniatures at my blog: link In short I would HIGHLY recommend Westfalia Miniatures to you for excellent quality miniatures. They are certainly a producer of quality miniatures offering those 'unique' miniatures you probably will struggle to find anywhere else, but will add that vital bit of 'character' to your army.

I'm with you on this. An excellent little company that deserves our support to ensure it flourishes. |

Gentlemen, I agree with your respective sentiments
They are excellent figures from an inovative company

That Highland chap looks like he'd be popular with the ladies (or laddies!!) -bit reckless exposing it to enemy fire in such an extravagant fashion
Truly wonderful miniatures. |

Kawe and Andreanne are great people to do business with and their planned ranges include some really super minis! |

So you've collected all of them! Looks great! The Hanoverian Jagers are a nice addition to my 100 days era troops. I have put paint to them, on my blog it looks like I came pretty close to the colors on the uniform link on your blog. link Now if I can figure a way to base the Highlanders and keep them out of view of my grand daughters, I might spring for them as well. Kawe and Andreanne were really helpful on the order and I look forward to some of the 'up and coming' items. |

Could anyone tell me WHERE the Hanovarian Jagers fought at Waterloo (which part of the battlefield) – I'm trying to find a sneaky way for to justify to myself buying them! |

Lord Hill
.they were with the 1st Hanovarian Brigade ,(I want to say the 1st allied Division )if that helps any.I do not have my books handy,,,,,but I think they were on the ridge between hougomont(sp),and La Hay Sante(sp). Tim Young waiting for someone to correct me |

Thank you for taking the time to review our miniatures. It really does make us happy to see that fellow-hobbyists find them agreeable. @Lord Hill: They were located on the allies right flank in the gardens of Hougoumont and brigaded with Kielmansegge's 1st Hannoverian . They also had been renamed to 'the Kings German Hunters' in 1815. |

Excellent – that's just what I wanted to hear, an excuse to mix them in with my Guardsmen in Hougoumont! I shall get some asap. |

I agree, these figures have great character and add a little spice to your wargames table. Raglan |

The Hannoverian Jaegers and those Highlanders have been on my list for a few weeks now. Just waiting for the Prussian ambulance and French peasant cart to be released later this month and I'll order them together. I really like the mix of subjects Westfalia have chosen, and hope they continue in this vein. |

I'm very pleased with everything I've bought from them so far, and I certainly plan on picking up more of their stuff in the future. |

Nice figures and great concept. I love it that someone is showing some love for things that are great to have in a game and that no one else does. |
