Does anyone know the manufacturer?
Thanks in advance.

The same as above but on round bases...
They can be used as Mongols of course, there's not much in it really :)
cheers

look pretty much like pancakes... rounded edges have a strange look!
BTW, looking at the TAG mongols, they are really different than huns!
Even though i'm sure that some of the mongol cavalry looked exactly the same as Huns!

The Huns are wearing plundered late roman style armor. Wouldn't stop me from using them as Mongols, but they'd be serious relics for your average 13th century Mongol. ;)

Blinis, I guess...
Didn't the Huns originate from the central asian steppes, near Mongolia, btw.?

Thanks guys. I was thinking of using some of the unarmoured ones.

13th Century Mongols wore armour based on Chin style once they discovered how good it was. Their initial armour would have been stiffened hide/leather. And there is a difference between Huns & Mongols but whether it can be detected on 28mm figs, I'm not sure.

That's a good point. I think the biggest noticeable difference would be the armour of different periods, as has been pointed out.
