Most of them could probably be represented by using suitable British or Portuguese infantry figures. The majority appear to have worn the tapered shako, which British infantry wore until around 1812, the remainder wore what is described as "a shako of Portuguese design", which I assume is the barretina (later adopted by British as the Belgic shako) link |

AB or Campaign Game Miniatures are your best bet, British line in stovepipe shakos, however the Hanoverian LW also wore a soft cap. link The sculptor I referenced in the other thread is doing stovepipe shakos and Hanoverian LW in soft caps for the next Kickstarter. |
