USMC historical uniforms (figs thereof) question
« on: 03 May 2011, 04:19:39 PM »
Does anyone make figs of Marines (U.S. of course) in the old Blue shirts, Khaki pants w/leggings and the hat with the brim folded up (like Agarn in F Troop) ?
Quality has a quantity of its own

Pulp makes some great US Marines for this period. But unfortunately the brims aren't folded up

The pulp stuff is great but uniformed for the later "khaki" period. Depends how picky you are. I use the mentioned Redoubt and OG from the Spanish-American war/Boxer Rebellion to represent what you are looking for.

Brigade games do sandistas in their Carribean Empires range, along with Haitian bandits, civilians, etc. They also have a few U.S. Marines, but more suited for the 1920s, a bit later than what you're looking for, but maybe not. Brigade also carries the Paroom Station marines, which have the the older equipment.

Thanx for all that.

But, ya know, I'm thinking of going Boxer Rebellion now, Dan Daley on the Tarter wall, Smedly butler on the rescue mission, what all.

Know any of those?

Boxer and Chinese Government troops of 1900? And Royal Fusiliers?
