They look very nice, not sure about ordering them though!

Tally Ho!

It's a first set from new range. They will release 2 more sets soon: commanders of the first and second west armies.

very impressive miniatures – especially in my view – horse height to rider proportions – excellent for Napoleonic period.

However – odering directly form Russia??

seems to be difficult – the figures are top notch – hopefully much more to come, the sculptor has to be congratulated

Glad you like them boys!. (smile)

Why is a problem to buy in Russia?…because they do not meet deliveries?

Sculptor is the same guy, who sculpted the best sets for Zwezda. All old samurai and most of napoleonics.

Scale -28mm? Struggled to see

Nice figures

Glad it was not just me who could not work that out.

Bizarre how often something as fundamental as scale is not clear on such sites

jeffreyw304 Mar 2017 2:41 p.m. PST

Yeah, 28s. The grenadier with the sword raised is a Perry figure and provided to show that the sizes match.

Markconz04 Mar 2017 10:24 p.m. PST

Yes I'm keen on these, hopefully a few more released and some easier ordering system set up.

Three Armies05 Mar 2017 5:04 a.m. PST

Look very nice but at about £14.00 GBP a set it's a bit steep. They are command figures so it should be ok for me to buy
a pack :)

The heroically posed Officer I immediately recognised as a Perry figure and I freely admit I just as quickly decided this was rather worrying plagiarism. Glad to have that clarified!

They do look very nice indeed….well done for one piece castings. Price must reflect likely sales of what are senior officers. Produce some dragoons to this standard, you will sell thousands. No one will buy more than one set of these

von Winterfeldt05 Mar 2017 8:13 a.m. PST

in case you look at the masters – loads of interesting detail, the riders hold the reigns in their hands, Bennigsen, as I learned from Sho Boki – still wearing the old plume on the hat.

just great reseatch in combination with great sculpting – excellent end product.

Tango0105 Mar 2017 3:22 p.m. PST

Glad you like them too guys!. (smile)

These are clearly very well researched, beautifully sculpted and high quality castings. Not sure how I would go trying to get these to Australia?? Anyone with some advice to assist interested parties here in Australia and our mates in NZ?

Glad to see a comparison pic with a Perry Mins. Clearly a helpful guide and pre-empting the obvious questions of comparison with the masters (PM).

They're clearly very compatible with PM and much more compatible than Front Rank. A pity Alan Perry hasn't done more command for his Napoleonic Russian, Austrian & Prussian ranges. Hopefully in the future..

Interested to see what the next sets look like?

Ordered some Bashkirs and Generals about a week ago, all very simple, easy to do, postage to the UK expensive. Figures are lovely, interrupting my current project to get them painted! Good communications with Nikolay throughout, very pleased.

Tally Ho!

Fantastic figures. Sho – what is the name of the sculptor, the one who used to work for Zvezda? He is top notch.
