They look like old Minifigs, possibly the old strip 15mm line.

Thanks, but any idea what army they are from?

Tang Chinese I think

Those helmets are the sort particularly used by the Sung, Yuan, and Ming.

Thank you FK, I should have thought of asking you first on the Pendraken forum! They also came with a chariot and some sort of multi-arrow artillery weapon, if that would help narrow things down?
Equally I know they might originally have been put together as a "generic" Chinese army mixing in bits from different periods! ::)

While they may, indeed, be Minifigs they look a little squat and the bases too thick in my experience. My first thought - and no idea if they did such a range so it may be a long reach - but possibly Mike's Models? Afraid I have no idea as to which army they might be, not my era.

Chariots were really out of date by then, but perhaps the models are of the battle-carts the Ming took north for some of their steppe wars? Think Hussites with oyster sauce....
