Nice looking figures (although in the wrong scale, of course ;-)))). Glad to see you back, Armand !! |

For newbies 1/72 is the way to go |

Any tails to tell or is it all hush hush ? |

I pondered once mixing 1/72 with my 15mm army, make some units with totally 1/72 but it was just too much of a stretch. |

Great to see you back Armand, if you come across the site from which these figs can be ordered, could you post us a link? I'm probably missing something obvious, being an oldie who thinks 1/72 is still the way to go ;-) |

1/72 is a really good scale. But are they plastic? If not, why are they in the Plastic Figures section? |
Marc at work | 04 Mar 2016 2:27 a.m. PST |
Because they are compatible with plastic 1/72 figures. Before those new fangled, Johnny come Lately 28mm figures, the plastics board was were us 1/72 boys hung out. These are designed to match the excellent Zvezda set, so good to see. And yes, 1/72 does not match with 15s. Nor 18,s. And, TBH and IMHO, not with 20mm (Newline) – maybe 20mm (SHQ/Kennington), at least their Naps range match. OP – nice figures, great poses. Very lively |

Marc is right… about the link… the only way is to contact Uwe to his site (mentioned here)… Amicalement Armand |

@Timbo. The link given isnīt the only way to contact Uwe. The figs will eventually appear here link Compatible or not..they are metal and I think Tamas has a Point . The Hussites I recently painted are all metal but are also compatible with all other 1/72 scale figs. Should they be cross posted here as well? A section for 1/72nd would be a good idea, divided into metal and plastic, or 1/72ndīs in General ? |

These are terrific figures, love the poses, much more suited for dioramas than wargaming, which is right up my alley. These, along with the Dutch Belgian Militia, Westphalian Guard Jagers and French Elites are on my shopping list for later this year. Uwe and his site are both awesome, nice to have a source for 20mm metal Napoleonics. Am also looking at some of the Franznap figures, specifically the Baden figures………… |

Aha, great, thanks all. The officers etc are particularly useful as you don't get enough in plastic sets usually. |
