Best Bavarian 28mm WSS miniatures that are compatible with Front Rank?

Advice appreciated.

None so far as Front Rank WSS figures ranges are much chunkier and taller than the other WSS makers' ones in my opinion. So while Ebor, Warfare , WF (older range) and Dixon , as well as minor older ranges too, all mix up quite well between each other having the same general anatomical proportions, he Front rank one simply look not right together with them… it is pity as FR figures are very nice and they do very specific figures (French Maison du Roi mounted grenadiers , Danish in double breasted coat) none of the other manufacturer does …it is of course a matter of personal taste but I tried and I really don't like to see FR and other makers' units side by side on a wargames table.

yes Gunfreak you're right indeed! they do even if only in firing/at ready poses so far , they've been available since a couple of months ago..
Ebor are great figures and the best value available for WSS and GNW so far. thank You

No manufacturer mixes in the same unit as Front Rank.

Reiver do Bavarian but are an acquired taste I think.

Reiver, unfortunately, are also the only manufacturer that makes accurate Bavarian grenadiers.
