French from the Soapster coming soon

[Hywel Dda]

Are the rifles a little small - I always though that the Lebel plus bayonet was almost a man's height (depends on the man's height of course - i am looking at my WW1 Infatry in Colour Photographs book)

[Calimero]

I don’t know the actual length of the Lebel rifle with his bayonet but it was nicknamed the "cane à pêche" by the French Infantrymen… so yes, they do seem a little short on the figures.

[Amalric]

Great looking figures.
When and where will they be available?

[Plynkes]

Mid April and here .

[Count Winsky]

Very nice figures.  I can't wait to purchase some.

[Hammers]

regarding the fluted helmets... I've seen some pictures of those, and they usually are present in museums... my guess would be that the infantry used both and also a cap which is different from the French and the British one

As I recognized it from my Mollo/Turner I looked it up. Made in Birmingham under contract from the Portuguese gvmnt. Nothing on how rare or common it was.

I am trusting that he will make a whole range of French, bombers, VBs Chauchat gunners and give them the same treatment he gave the turks and brits right?
