These should go nicely with Wargames Atlantic's new plastic Italians that are also coming out this month. The WGA ones come in a box of 32 for $35 USD USD and the uniforms/equipment options are good for WW1 and WW2. You can also build up to two Breda 37 heavy machine guns. Looks like it's a good time to start an Italian army for Bolt Action! |

Not a fan of plastic infantry. |

Fortunately, Warlord has metal Italians, too. |

Is it possible to make Bersaglieri with helmets from this set? |

I believe that the Wargames Atlantic have a Bersaglieri option, but I don't see one for the Warlord ones. |

So how how to decide?
War-games Atlantic 32 figures for $35 USD plus $8 USD shipping
Warlord 30 figures for $53 USD plus $25 USD shipping Are the Warlord worth $35 USD more? Somebody please do a comparative review. |

Well, you could buy a box from each manufacturer.
Wargames Atlantic cost each, with shipping, is $1.34 USD.
Warlord comes to $2.60 USD apiece.
The average cost from both would become $1.95 USD a figure.
Plus you would have many options and hours of joy on the painting/conversion table! |

Good idea. I know that if you order directly from WGA (at least in the US), $50 USD purchase will get you free shipping. So two boxes will get them shipped gratis. Does Warlord have a free shipping program for the US? |

I would prefer buying plastics produced in the UK over China. I'll go with Warlord. |

Admirable. Wargames Atlantic have announced transition to USA production to overcome all these shipping and other hassles. So that's good news, too. |
