For characters from Michael Mann's 1992 film "The Last of the Mohicans", (in fact nowadays, there are hundreds of Mohicans) which 28 / 30mm figurines you prefer, those of AW Miniatures or those of Warlord Games ? Unless there are others? |

Conquest Miniatures and Galloping Major are the best figures available in that scale. BTW, the Conquest Miniatures figures are now marketed by Warlord Miniatures, but were produced independently. Rick |

The Conquest line had semi official approval. I was talking with the sculptor at a convention, and he told me that Wes Studi really liked the Magua figure. |

I have both the Conquest/Warlord Last of the Mohican figures and the Redoubt set. Both sets are good in their own way.
The Redoubt set ( link ) is the best for compatibility with Galloping Major or larger sized figures and is the most complete set as it is the only one to feature Duncan. The sculpts are not quite as good as those in the Conquest/Warlord set but some of the characters have better poses. Hawkeye and Cora are very dynamic and the sculpt of Chingachook with his gunstock club is very nice.
The Conquest/ Warlord set are more static than the Redoubt figures but they are the best sculpts of Last of the Mohican figures on the market and they really capture the likenesses of the actors from the movie. The Conquest/Warlord Hawkeye figure in particular is a very good representation of Daniel Day Lewis and the Magua figure is an excellent likeness of Wes Studi.
I don't have the AW figures but they look a lot cruder than either the Conquest/Warlord or Redoubt figures and their set has no Chingachook so I wouldn't go with them if I were you. |

Who doesn't make them? Seems like all the suppliers for FIW I go to have them. |

I did not know that Redoubt did them, thank you for the info … And who makes a Patrice Chéreau as Louis Joseph of Montcalm-Gozon, Marquis of Saint-Véran (said Montcalm)? |

Impossible to find those of Redoubt, what is their reference? No pictures ? |

AW Miniatures does the Last of the Mohican personality figures and Front Rank does a Mounted Montcalm in 28mm |
