The Prussians had few sets of figures. The first to be produced were Line infantry, modelled to represent the 1814/15 period, wearing shakos with covers. There is also a command group set, which I have seen pictures of, but currently I do not own any. Also listed, and again not seen by me are Jagers
To start off the Prussians here is a small group of Line Infantry:
Excellent! I had some of these, painted up as a Rheinbund battalion (Schwartzburg-Sondershausen?), but I've never seen or heard of any command figures before. One problem I had - with these and other figures around this time - was that my only local model soldier shop (Toytub, in Edinburgh) had reached a stage where they stocked a few of everything, but the owner was about to retire, and I fear his heart was no longer in it - thus he didn't push anything very hard, and thus the demand didn't encourage him to persist with any new ranges.
ReplyDeleteGood to see these - thanks.
