Superb and unusual figure, but somwhat pricey compared with other 120mm mounted resin figures.

this is gonna be a hughe vignette.
I think it is worth every single Euro/Dollar/pound.
But also for me very expensive when i want them all.

I just received the previous mounted figure for the set and it is well worth the price!!!!

I have quite literally just received the Mounted British Officer in the post, thanks Gordon! First impressions are most favourable with just the usual clean up associated with most resin castings.
I am planning to use the British figures from this series to depict the 69th regt at Quatre Bras and I think I might replace the bicorne with a belgic shako on the mounted officer, as the bicorne is cast separately this is a very straightforward swap.Then again the mounted officer might be suitable as a staff type officer wearing a bicorne, just need to check some references.
Now if I could just find some suitable 120mm French Cuirassier figures! There are I suppose the Verlinden ones but I'm not sure about the quality.

I have a 120mm Verlinden mounted Cuirassier and it's both a quality sculpt and casting. I think the pose would suit your concept well as the horse is rearing and the Cuirassier is thrusting with his sword.
