Hey there. Can anyone tell me the make and model of these guys? I got a bunch of figures from a large collection and I've figured out most so far. These ones have really stumped me though. The previous owner had a mix from ancient to gun powder. Some of these guys have a mix of spears, mace/sword and bow, all have quivers. Any ideas? imgur.com/rXQxN8J Thanks!

Persians, perhaps from Essex? Unfortunately, the Essex website has no photos of their 25mm Persian line. Nice looking figures, in any case. Grelber |

certainly horse and musket. Turks perhaps? |

I think they are Redoubt Ottomans, I have some of those. |

TBeyer, right on the money, thanks! It makes sense because I know the previous owner had a huge Renaissance collection. |

Hi Tetragramaton, yes they had some great ranges and some pretty bad ones – their Trojan Wars and Renaissance ranges were really nice, I have a bunch of their eastern Europe types and wish I had more of their Polish cavalry. Some were just OK like their pirates, and some were really bad like their Indian stuff – so bad I just threw all those figures away when I got them. |

TBeyer; I had the same experience with Redoubt. Their Indian stuff was really bad, never ordered from them again. |
