I'm one of those odd balls that likes the uniformity of 15mm Minifigs. I am wondering how they compare in size with Blue Moon specifically the 1812/Napoleonic's. I have a bunch of unpainted Minifigs and was looking to maybe get some BM if they're relatively close. Thanks in advance |

Blue Moon are noticably bigger and very different in style. |

I'm a huge fan of the Mini-Figs as well. I really like their design and wish they were still being made by GFI here in the states. |

I like Minifigs too, and mix them with Freikorps for more variety. Blue Moon simply aren't 15mm, they are 18mm, so it's a different scale. |

Scott McPhee offers a really nice comparison with photos of Blue Moons compared with Minifigs and some other 15mm figures on his blog. link |

If you are looking for Minifigs you can find them in various generations on Ebay. Just search by 15mm Minifigs Napoleonics. Also, I have a number of them (Peninsula Brits and French)that I doubt I will ever paint at the rate things are going. |
