can't remember having seen any mules that would look better than these....
classic questions:
how many different mules are there?
are the loads separate?

They are very nice figures and again a very nice paint job by Andy Taylor, though the way the pack mule is looking out of the corner of his eye looks a bit "My Pony".

thanks chaps.............Juergun just waiting on my site update as the
figs are sitting here!

Bedwyn at present there are two mules either can be ridden and the loads
are separate as are the saddles as i want to do some mounted contras..well you could do a few now need an officer and another variant.
i plan on doing two more mules and more loads

Excellent!
looking forward to those
best mules ever!
Negrier's mounted companies came later, but there was a lot of improvisation for the French in Mexico  ;)

btw, here is a very interesting site about the Maximilian Adventure, in case it was unknown
