I'm trying to fill out the ranks of some old plastic Bretonian archers.

The closest compatible look to be Crusaders' HYW archers

I think the old Citadel archers from Foundry are too small (so I've heard).

BTD appear to have some, but aren't as code a match as Crusaders.

I'm basing all of this on online photos though. Anyone have suggestions? Many thanks!

I would look at Front Rank's HYW range, a good size match for that era Citadel. I used some of the Citadel command figures with Front Rank, looked fine. Also Black Tree's "Men of Averaign" range in Fantasy is the not-Brets range, and are a good match (though posing is a little stiff, IMHO).

I will second Garand's suggestions, both Front Rank and BTD Averaign (and also the historical HYW range) match really well.

Essex HYW range.

I really need to pay more attention to what I'm reading.

I was wondering why you would want Bretonnian archers with menopause.

I read mongoose Bretonnian archers and wondered when Mongoose got the Warhammer license.

Claymore Castings' Otterburn era English archers would be the first place I'd look.
