The only problem, if they are BTD, is the shocking delivery service. I ordered some stuff from them in November, and half of it never arrived and they just ignore you!

If only someone like Empress put MI out.

splendid work!! :-*
I just checked the BT HP
one of them appears to be the dragoon, but I can't find the other two so they appear to be conversions?

Given their prolific Zulu War output I think you can count on that happening sooner rather than later

thanks!

I did no converting. They were listed as Mounted infantry on ebay and from their equipment I assumed that's what they were. You are right, though, on the website they only seem to have dragoons and lancers - so these probably are meant to be dragoons. I would guess the other two that aren't pictured (the chap firing and the one resting his carbine across his lap) on the website are actually in the dragoon pack as the figures pictured there are the same as the ones pictured for the dragoon command...?

While I like the figures a lot, I can't personally recommend or discourage buying directly from BTD. ALL the BTD figures I have bought I either picked up in a store or bought off ebay. I have, however, read more than a few horror stories about ordering from them on other forums and a friend of mine here in Saskatoon tried ordering stuff from the US site a year and a half ago and it took over six months for him to get all his stuff. He did get it all, and they even threw in a couple extras... but six months is an awfully long time to wait these days...

You might be right about that  :)

My goodness, they are outstanding!  Most all of my Brits are from Foundry.  I'll have to look at BTD to vary my poses more.  Again, they are magic.
Don't you oppress me!
