And speaking of them can anyone recommend a 15-18mm Winged Hussar figure? My gran really wants a unit. Thanks for your help.

It's for Gran. Do a whole army!
I bought from a variety of sources.
I was disappointed in each, in their own way. However, I'm happy with the final result – army wise.

Check Irregular Miniatures. I know they do 6mm and 20mm cause I have a test strip / mini of each…..

Have you looked to see what Old Glory or Essex have?

If I was gaming Poles in 15mm then I would definitely look at Fire and Sword. This is a whole games system, but you can just buy the figures if that is all you want.

You can buy direct or there are UK and USA stockists as well. Well researched and an extensive range for all of the Eastern European armies.

I built up a 17th century Polish army a few years ago. I used By Fire and Sword miniatures. They are lovely figures and come with bases, flags/pennants and separate lances, including a small bead to represent the bulb on the Hussars' lances. I am not sure what the new plastic horses they use are like, however, I can recommend them. They also have a very comprehensive range.
Khurasan are about to produce a new range of 18mm Polish. The samples on Facebook look superb, however, I don't know when they are due out as they are still not listed on the web site.
My friend John used a lot of Old Glory for his Poles as well as some Legio Heoica. He said the Legio Heroica figures were very nice, but the Old Glory figures were more dynamic.

What he says…..
I like the mix of LH and OG but to be fair the BFAS polish range is awesome

By Fire And Sword makes some great 15mm hussars. WargamerUS.com carries them in the US.

Yes, and I'm waiting for restock. Thank you all for your replies.

I too have By Fire and Sword and agree they are superb.
