FIRST LEGION: Woodland Indians

The news of October:

First Legion is pleased to present the first of Woodland Indians for the American Revolution! While part of our American Revolution product range, these figures are of course perfectly useful for a much wider time period including but not limited to the French & Indian War. They can represent such tribes as the Iroquois speaking Cayuga, Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca, and Huron or Algonquian speaking Abenaki, Chippewa, Delaware, or Mohicans. The Eastern Indians were the first to make contact with European settlers and had both periods of peace and trade as well as periods of conflict with various tribes and with European settlers and armies siding with one side or the other, thus allowing these figures to be used as allies to either side or even fighting each other. From a design perspective, our Woodland Indians have provided us a wonderful opportunity to produce very colorful and ornate figures that really highlight our strengths as a figure company. Simply put, these are the finest figures available today and we will continue to expand upon this sub-range to include both additional fighting and non-combat/tribal life scenes over the years to come. We sincerely hope you enjoy them as much as we've enjoyed creating them!

Nice figures. What is the scale? Are these prepainted? The archer is going to have a hard time firing the bow with the string on that side of his arm.

I believe they are toy soldiers.

Don't let any FL collectors hear you call them toy soldiers.That would mean WAR!Seriously they prefer them to be called military miniatures and I would agree with them as they are a cut above any other manufacturer.I haven't collected any FL for the simple reason as I really can't afford them but I will get these.They do have some kits in 1/30 and 1/35 scales.

scale is 1/30 (Classical so named "54 mm Scale" like Pegaso, Art Girona and other manufactures).
