Quick question here:

Are figures meant to represent the 95th Rifles appropriate for the 5/60th? I've no reason to think they aren't, but if they won't do I'd prefer to know before I spend the money.

Thanks for any/all help,
Mark

I think they are, but I'm not 100% certain. I use them for both anyway.

I used Perry 95th Riflemen as 60th Rifles. Close enough for me.

The only difference is the later 5/60th had plain shoulder straps without the wool tuft.

Mserafin – Nobody makes 60th Rifles as far as I know so you can either get 95th and take to them with a modelling knife or be damned and let people see those shoulder tufts :)

I know what I did.

I used the same figures (18mm AB) and took off the tufts.

My 60th are Elite figures, as are my 95th. Look perfectly fine to me…
