French Old Guard Grenadier Guards

Whilst I still have a number of British figures to add to the blog, I thought I would turn to the French figures. First up are the Grenadiers of the Old Guard. Of all the French infantry figures I like the guards the best. The uniform is pretty accurate and the figures are nicely proportioned. Here is a group from my original collection. Over the years these figures have been painted in may guises - originally as saxons, but in the 1980s they were returned to their original French blue:

Once again I did not obtain command figures for my French troops, although I am certain they were available in the Ros range.

  1. No collection is complete without them.

    Do you intend to use them for gaming?
