I'm looking for 28/25mm prone figures in Picklehaub. Is anyone aware of such a figure?

The only ones I am aware of are from the Foundry's FPW range. They listed prone Prussians firing in the original range. I  don't think in the re-released range they have any though. :?

Nickinsomerset haas quite an extensive collection - he may have some, I will also have a look in my lead mountain and see if I have any.

There is a casualty pack with prone figures still available by the way?

Thanks for line on the casualties. I've managed to miss that one all this time.

I have no prone Prussians except some casualties. The latter will need some work to put them into a useful position. I would like some Prone FPW as with TDFG boths sides spend a lot of time prone!

If Foundry did produce prone figures it may be worth a call. I got some French mounted staff officers, no longer listed but during a phone call to the helpful "Bernard" he said there were some figures not listed that are still available.

Thanks for checking.

After doing a bit of looking around I think I can make a credible conversion out of the Renegade machine gun crewmen.

Mike, er  :?Skrapwelder,
You may think your prone Prussians will be immune to my British marksmenship, but laying down they will be that much easier to stomp when my D'Isreali walker comes to the party.   ;DMind you, the Picklehaubs might get caught between its toes.   lol
