Does any know how the 25mm Old Glory Indian Mutiny figures compare sizewise to the 28mm Iron Duke figures? Can they be mixed in the same unit? Any pictures would be fantastic Thanks in advance for any help. |

Here are links to two conversations about figure comparison from which you may be able to extrapolate the information you need. I mix Foundry Taiping Rebellion figures with Old Glory Boxer Rebellion figures and they look great together. Based on my reading of the threads below my guess is that Iron Duke minis would be a tad larger than Foundry and hence Old Glory. However, it all depends on one's comfort zone for that sort of thing. I prefer the minis in my armies to be roughly the same size. Other folks freely mix different sizes. I hope this helps. TMP link link |

I have them both and think they go fine together in separate units, as far as infantry goes. I initially thought that the IDMs would be substantially larger than the OGs, but that is not actually the case, IMO. Cavalry is another matter. The OG horses are substantially smaller Thant the IDM ones. Personally, I am not hesitating to use the OG infantry mutineersagainst the IDM "British" since, generally speaking, they were shorter than Europeans in real life. Up until now, I've only bought "British" IDM figures, with a few Irregular Cavalry, but I just bought some IDM matchlock men, and I think they will go fine with their fellow OG "rebels." |
