Another well sculpted figure. The 60th at one point had legging made of trade/blanket material. The havesack and knapsack need a little work here. Between this and the frontiersman this is probably the better of the two in terms of accuracy. ~Gary

You can also create a scene with RM - 75 - 22

That's a little more helpful Gary ;-) I have to say these are two very attractive figures regardless of any issues that my lack of knowledge isn't allowing me to see.

I like both pieces. I don't know about their historical accuracies, but I like what I see.

I'm happy to see Romeo/Pegaso continue to issue new figures from the French-and-Indian War period, especially in the 75mm size. The standard was set very high with the Iroquois Warrior, and with the British Grenadier, which apparently can be painted as a different regiment, one that served in North America.
These two new figures continue the trend, certainly, but the uniforms chosen lack, in my opinion, the visual impact of the earlier releases. The grouping of the two figures is an interesting idea. I have no doubt these new sculpts will appeal to fans of the period, but I cannot help but wonder if other uniforms, with perhaps a broader appeal, are being contemplated.
In any event, I hope these are successful, and thus encourage Romeo & Pegaso to continue this series.
