I need some SYW Prussian and Austrian Officers to command my armies. Can someone help me with sources in the USA for purchasing the above? Thank You!! |

Check out Fife and Drum Miniatures. Apparently they carry the Minden line from what it says on their homepage. |

Yep, Minden is a good choice. They have mounted officers, command vignettes, and personality figures. Beautiful sculpts and very clean castIngs. Great customer service, too. fifeanddrum-minis.com/index.html |

Another vote for F&D. Jim Purky is the man to help you with Minden figures. Eric |

The topic says "25/28mm". Aren't Minden/Fife & Drum 30mm? Or do they mix well with, say, Front Rank 28mm? If you really want 28mm, contact Buddy at Triangle Miniatures. They carry Front Rank and Elite. Though as far as Front Rank goes, he's stopping carrying them, so while there is a 30% discount, you're limited to what he has left. Also, he's out of Front Rank horses, but they carry a brand called Calpe Miniatures that seem to work OK (just make sure you match up figures with/without horse furniture with appropriate horses with/without horse furniture. |
