Thanks Guy
Just checked the link, it says Poste Militaire by Bonapartes, does that mean they have taken over the moulds?
If so, that's a shock I thought that PM were a big name in this field. PM used to have a vast inventory, that doesn't appear to be the case with Bonapartes.
Thanks again.

Ray Lamb retired due to poor health from what I've heard and Bonapartes bought the molds for the Napoleonics and with Ray's suppervision is casting them under PM / Bonapartes

Hi Tim
another possibility is an german dealer, who has a great gray army with PM kits. And he has real good prices.

In addition to Bonapartes, Elite, a Spanish manufacturer, has the moulds of the figures designed for PM by Derek Hansen and Stefanno Cannone. Here's the link:

Tim,
If you can spare an hour or two, zip down to Bath and see Dave Freeman at Bonapartes. It is a gem of a shop, helpful as and a big range of figures. I recently spent 3 hrs there, had to drag myself out before my VISA melted!
Cheers

I've recently rediscovered a love for the classic PM kits. The ones done by Mike Good specifically. They really are timeless and the quality holds up to most everything produced today. I'm working on their Muscovite Rindi 75mm figure from 1988. Great kits. Many are to be found at shows as well as ebay.

Very nice figure. I painted the PM Cossack figure for a friend of mine a couple of years ago. Another gem of a figure. Apparently while emigrating to USA from Russia around 1910, his family disembarked in Montreal when they thought they were in New York City. Like so many North American stories, the Canadian immigration authorities could not spell their original name but called them Kosak instead because John's great grandfather had served as a Cossack guard in the Czar's Imperial army.
I'm lucky to have both the Uhlan and Jager kits safely packed away that may see paint one day

I also have been doing some invade on old PM kits . after the conquistador , i have 2 more 70 and 3 more 90 mm topaint . And as for Bonapartes i have to say that theyre really serious as a shop and with great customer care. They havea stock that they bought from PM, that is originallypacked and selling . and they will reproduce slowly allthe numbers of them
