Personally, I don't think Warlord has released either of the two figures on the left. I think it has released the two figures on the right. I'm sceptical whether the two figures on the left will ever be released, given that Warlord has already released a pack of sword and buckler men. I wonder whether Paul Hicks sculpted the figures in the sword and buckler pack which was released.

I see that Warlord Games has just announced the release of the gendarmes sculpted by Paul Hicks.

Would these be a good fit with Assault Group Later Landsknechts?

I pinged Warlord asking if they could help narrow the period to something more granular than "1524-1648" and got this response from Lorenzo:

Those models are ideally used during the beginning of the Pike & Shotte era, just towards the end of the Landsknechts years and through all the years of the Spanish military supremacy in Europe.

As a rough indication, I would consider the years between 1530 and 1580.

French, Spanish, Italian and German armies would have possibly fielded cavalry similarly dressed and geared.
