Excellent! Nothing says Colonial warfare so much as the sight of a naval landing party in sennet hats.  :)

I picked these up at the Flea Market at Fall in for a song.  :D Painting them up as we speak. These were not on the Copplestone website a few days ago when I looked for them.  Great minis, and comon, 10 variants! So awesome.

Almost certainly will one day pick these up.

Overall, I wish Copplestone would continue adding to their already existing lines.

About the same height (give or take), but much, much more hefty. A matter of taste as to whether they are compatible. I'll see if I can get a pic done.

On the left as you look at it is the Copplesone, on the right the Perry. A lot closer than most people imagine
