How do they compare sizewise? I am tempted by yet another period. |

Lancashire do not officially have any 28mm figures as far as I am aware. The Carlist War figures are listed as 25mm and are smaller than Perrys. Also, the style is very different. I would stick with one manufacturer, my personal preference being the Perrys. |

I don't own either, but have to say those Lancashire offerings do look nice! My guess is they would probably be easier to paint than the Perrys', whose sculpting tends to veer towards the impressionistic? |

Thanks Artilleryman. The Perry figures will be better sculpts but the Lancashire are cheaper.
Who would have believed that the Carlist wars (only the First really) would have attracted more than one manufacturer? We live in bountiful times. |

4.6 pounds for four Lancashire infantry vs. 6.25 for six Perry seems about the same. Perry cavalry are 7.5 for three vs. 8.0 for three L.G. Maybe I'm reading these wrong? |

I have a collection of 1/72 plastic Carlist War (lots of conversions). I was unaware of the existence of the Lancashire Carlist Line. If they are "true" 25mm they might fit with the 1/72 figures, at least in separate units. Has anyone got a measurement from bottom of feet to top of head, excluding headgear? |

goes beyond the straight line.
