This is a boxed set of both figures plus a resin base to accomadate both figures. Both figures are packed in a large heavy black cardboard box with all parts sandwiched between many layers of foam. The accessories are also wrapped separately to insure against loss.

The top 2 photos are from the Russian Landed Cavalry Standard Bearer and the bottom 2 photos are the head of the Russian Wojewoda.

The above photo shows the chest section of each figure.

Hey Guy,

Thanks for the review. Are the riders interchangeable between horses? (Just to add some variety to the scene )

Hey Guy,

Thanks for the review. Are the riders interchangeable between horses? (Just to add some variety to the scene )

They probably are Rudi. Not sure about the historical accuracy tho. Will let you know when I get the horses together and slip the leg section down into the saddle.

I like how the standards are engraved. It works great for those of us who can't paint them! Now it will give us/me a guide, like coloring in the lines!!

Thanks Guy.

Do you mean in terms of the horse furniture?

Thanks Guy.

Yes Rudi,

They were very "regimental" as far as horse furniture from what I have read. A standard bearer would not neccessarily have a General's saddle etc.
