Hello Gents! First post on Lead Adventure. I am painting up 1914 German and French armies, the figures are from Magister Militum's 10mm range. I love the figures but there are some gaps in the range (specifically dismounted cavalry). I have been told that Kallistra are closer to 12mm and have seen comparison shots from various 10/12mm ACW ranges which reinforce this. However, the MM WW1 range appears to be bigger than some of the other 10mm ranges from Magister Militum and they are a lot bigger/bulkier than their Pendraken WW1 comrades.
Does anyone have pictures of Kallistra and Magister Militum side by side? I'm hoping to use Kallistra's dismounted cavalry to flesh out my 1914 armies. Thanks!

Ordered up some samples and they all came in, here is a comparison shot for you all:

A very useful photo, the kneeling MM figure looks huge.
I have a lot of MM and Pendraken WWI french, and the MM are certainly bigger, but as long as the troops are on different bases they work together within the same force (e.g. I have MM Infantry and Pendraken guns)
