Don't know but my last post got eaten?
Apart from the North Star 1672 does anyone else do suitable figures to add to generals etc in 28mm?

They are a little bit earlier in time, but if you are looking for just general types you could look at TAG TYW figs. I think they are a good size match. I also used some bicorne horse for cuirassiers and they fit right in, so there might be something there.

League of Augsburg makes figures that are slightly later – I think they are smaller, but you'd have to confirm that.

I can't think of anyone who specifically makes figures for 1672. But you could very easily get away with figures from

Front Rank, link
LOA as above, link
Reiver, link
Dixons link
and Essex, link

Wargames Foundry used to have some good sets that matched pretty much everybody's size except Front Rank. Took a quick peek at their site, and it appeared they are no longer listed…weird.

Good luck!

they are still in their marlburian range; the informal tricorne ones

North Star took over Marc Copplestone's 1672 range and expanded them. I haven't seen tricornes as early as 1672 yet though, so you should be careful using those figures.
