I've recently finished a battalion of French leger using the venerable "true 25mm" Jack Scruby figures. Please stop by Col Campbell's Barracks to view them.

They have a quaint charm all their own. Thanks!

I had a Scruby French Napoleonic army of over 1000 figures back in the day, including those same Legere castings!

Thanks for the memories. Wish I had some of my old figures back.

Classics! Thanks for sharing.

Jim, I have the same figures as the 14th Legere. They've
been 'in service' since 1966…

Thanks for the accolades, guys. My gaming buddy and I have between us 1000s of Scruby, Miniature Figurines, Hinton Hunt, Hincliffe, and Warrior vintage and recent production figures. Some of my earliest figures are Jack Scruby's special group of the French Neuchatel Battalion (the "Canaries"). All of these have seen good service over the 45+ years we've been gaming together.
