nicht nur die perry-brüder sind auf den plastik-zug aufgesprochen und machen tolle figuren.

eine - für mich neue - firma hat nun napoleonische figuren aus plastik präsentiert. erstmals ist die englische seite vorhanden. das logo der firma und auch der name (victrix) erinnern mich an meine jugend (airfix).



und was da alles in so einer schachtel drinnen ist, und was das kostet klingt interessant.

Each set will feature the following:

• 52 individual figures including officers, standard bearers, NCO's, and drummers.

• Cost of each set will be ?19.95 that equates to ?0.38 per figure.

• Separate heads allowing great flexibility in the posing of the models.

• All the heads have individual faces sculpted to a high standard giving figures character and an authentic look.

• Each set contains advancing, marching and firing line positions with many variations on each type of pose.

• The sets contain dozens of arms allowing endless pose combinations. No two units need look the same, this is a huge improvement on sets of metal figures.

• Separate back packs, sword scabbards, muskets and pistols providing yet more opportunity for figures to have a unique look.

• Fast play rule set written by Barry Hilton from The League of Augsburg will be included in each boxed set.

• We have also included a 4 piece measuring rule with the figures that can be used in conjunction with the rule set.

• A set of 2 kings colours and 2 regimental colours included in each set. In addition we are providing a different flag sheet for each of our first 4 boxed sets. This potentially provides colours for 8 different regiments.

französische einheiten sollen auch folgen.

lt. vitrix haben sie eine verzögerung bei der release ihrer napoleon-range von knapp 6 wochen. aber was da alles kommt ist wirklich sehr interessant.

hier mal die ersten bilder der französischen greens:

Good news is that the French master sculpts are well under way, and we will be showing more of these over the next few weeks. These are in the long-tailed coat for 1805-1812. We will also be making some extra head packs in bicornes, which can be purchased separately for the French once they are released.

We are also pleased to show you some of the lovely specialty figures the very talented Paul Hicks has sculpted for us.

At present, Picton, Hill and Wellington, and four mounted colonels. These will be part of the special-offer box deals we will be putting on the website in the near future.

We have also had a fantastic pioneer figure made by Paul as a pre-order giveaway. This has two head options, for Peninsular and Waterloo, and will be shown next week.

ich kenne die arbeit von paul. er hat gerade zwei tolle miniaturen für ein charity-projekt modelliert und auf eigene kosten in einer limitierten auflage produziert. ich hab die napoleonische variante der mini genommen und die ist wirklich super.
