Is it me or are there now varying French infantry sizes these days from AB purchased from Eureka in the US? I've noticed a shorter French drummer variant and also shorter French infantry marching variations (AB-IF02). Not sure if that is intentional, new castings, or disorder… |

Entirely intentional. People are of different sizes, and now we are reinforcing the number of variants under each code, especially of very popular codes like IF02, you will find a natural variation of height. Muskets are all the same size, but the men aren't. |

Awesome! I love the little drummer boy, but I got nervous regarding my luck of the draw I got on several of the marchers. Thanks for the quick response! |

Are line grenadiers larger than fusiliers in the AB line? |

Thanks, Mr Barton, for the quick reply. The added variation on my four-figure stands will be great. |
