New Helion Prussians and Tradition figures

[nickinsomerset]

Chaps,

these arrived today just in time for me to be absent for a short while! Briefly the new Helion Prussians as jolly nice, especially if like me you want to branch into the 1866-71 Europe side of life. The ones I have are not the old Baker Co stuff but they mix very well, the Helion being slightly taller. Both are much taller than Foundry so will not mix in a unit. I await the Ulans and Austrian Hussars with a large Huzzar!!! Anyway once painted they will look rather splendid, 8 figures per pack all in a similar pose with plenty of logical variety.

Also arrived is the Traddition stuff 25mm RHA and 30mm other stuff. The RHA are slim 25mm but will look rather nice manning minifigs guns and carriages. A mounted British Guards Officer, lovely figure will sit next to HLBSc figures well. The other stuff include sitting Prussian, WWI sitting pilot and a Prussian General complete with a large eagle trying to fly off with his helmet. Excellent potential for command and crew figures for various machines. They are a slim 30mm.

Tally Ho!
