There is a mixture of manily shirtsleeves/ braces with slouch hats and the odd kepi with several in sack coats.

Brace? :o how did you see that in those small little mouths lol lol lol

cheers for that malamute the pics on the old glory site are not very clear the only ones i could make out were the dead and wounded.

They have the Hollywood look as opposed to the authentic uniform as per the Copplestone Foundry figures.
I bough a load many years ago before Foundry released theirs and they certainly looked the part on the table.

how do they mix with foundry.

how do they mix with foundry.
They will mix in fine in both height and bulk with the Foundry Cavalry. The only obvious difference will be the quality of the sculpting. If you are not bothered by that then they will work out just fine.
If I was to chose US cavalry figures today i'd list them in order of preference as Foundry, followed by Artizan and OG last. I bought all the Foundry ones sculpted by Copplestone when they were originally released and still really like them. I think they are spot on for accuracy of equipment etc, but the OG ones do have that Hollywood, yellow neckerchief and braces (suspenders?) look about them.
