I bought these in 1992 which seems a very long time ago! I have always been interested in the wars of the eighteenth century and these were the first figures I bought for the period. I am very fond of these despite their many shortcomings and I have about a thousand of them! One day I intend painting the lot and having Charles Grant type wargames with them, that is, about 40 figures per regiment. I have included a copy of the box art as I find it deeply nostalgic and something that is associated with my youth. For those who are interested, I bought my first box of these in Sherman's, an excellent model shop in Scunthorpe. It's still there! I recommend it for those who are passing through.
