British sailors

I have British Sailors that were Paul Hicks sculpts from Mutton Chop / Empress.
Looking for them last evening I couldn't find them.

Are they OOP, or is my Google fu inadequate ?

They're also listed in the British civil war section if you mean the shore party in tin hats

Only ever seen the Empress ones in tin hats, save for the officers in the command pack and one other . There is a Warlord games set in hats IIRC. You might be thinking of those.
