A very nice group of figures and a fantastic subject (the whole interwar 1919-1939 period has been largely overlooked by most producers) that could even tempt me back to buying another metal release after about 3 years of only buying resin!

Great stuff... anybody else read 'Beau Geste' as as nipper ?

Thanks for sharing Zastrow!
I think it would be more correct to date the figures between 1900-1913.
I got information of Osprey men-at-arms 461, French foreign Legion 1872-1914

Well, the vignette is the one for me! So much for my resolution that I have all the figures I could ever need. Is there a cure for this?? Some kind of clinic perhaps?

Brilliant... Wonderful vignette...Superb!
Just a shame it's too smaller scale for my old duffer eyes
Cheers

Thanks for your correction, but with Osprey concerning French "Modern " army there's sometimes some mistakes.
And without colors, it's quite impossible to date !

Great pose on the single figure! (the vignette would be too much for me!)

Beautiful, or should I say "c'est magnifique"

This is a fantastic vignette and one that I will have to consider.

Another fantastic and something different release. I will be ordering the set as soon as it becomes available. I got the two Crimea figures form the last release and very pleased with theses.

Keep them coming

Looks Great, and with the edition of a low scratch built back wall would lift it to another height

This just nailed it. All this last weekend, i've been debating about leaving the dark side (german armor, dioramas & vignettes) and concentrating on non WWII figures. As a kid, Beau Getse was one of my favorite books and movie. Even the one with Telly Savalas as the evil sgt. major. I have the Andrea Beau Geste figure, but not good enough of a figure painter to try it. It's time to start. Some of the 54mm figures out there i'm trying to find are 1. Andrea S7F28 Lord Nelson 2. Art Girona I-45 Spanish American War infantry 3. Art Girona I-65 Minuteman 4. Beneito MV60 Captain Souter 5. Beneito MV109 AWI soldier 6. Elite RG/54-03 Captain Souter 7. LaTorre 44th Foot Infantry at Gandamak 8. Michael Roberts Minuteman 9. Soldiers SO-01 Captain Souter. So if any one out there has any of these figures that have been in your collection for too long, give me a shout at plmmm at msn dot com If you have it, and no time to paint it, i'll buy it. Or if you're at all interested in WWII German armor kits or figures, maybe we can trade. Of course i'll post this in the classified/want forum. Thanks.
