I just spotted these on the MTSC website and they're 1/32 scale not the 1/35 scale of their past WWII sets. These new one are ACW and Napoleonic.

The ACW look pretty sharp in the pictures the following are the Napoleonics but the pictures are poor.

Carlos, 1st I've heard of them , thanks for posting the images.

They all look like very well made and painted figures. I am not sure how usefull many of the Napoleonic dismounted Cavalry action poses are though. Nice for display I suppose.Just seems to me if you are going to do all foot poses, might as well make them infantry or gunners but thats just me.

They do all look very nicely done.

I seen a couple of the napoleonics on ebay from europe and have been tempted but as far as I know they are all 1/35 and are on the small side from what I,ve heard.
 
I haven't seen these in person but I do have the catalog. If I remember correctly WWII is 1:35 and the Napoleonics and Civil War are 1:32. Not sure how accurate the scale is.

Thanks

I,m not sure if the british royal blues have been released yet but I,ve got the set of dragoons quite awhile back ago already.
Mine was a 3 piece set with an officer and a bugler also. I believe they are now selling these as singles also so you don,t have to buy the whole set anymore. I know that Michagen toy soldier is selling them as singles now anyway, I,m not sure if hes just breaking up sets or if there now available as singles????
I have quite a few of these sets now and they are real nice figures. They are a large 1/32 scale, about the same size as britains and a bit smaller then K&C but I think they fit in nice with both of them.
I just don,t like the way they do only 3 figures and move onto something else. I think they should give you a bit more to work with so you can do something with them and create some kind of mini diorama with them.

I also don,t like to have to many dismounted cavalry figures. I,d prefer foot soldiers. And the french artillary set would have been great if it had a couple more guys and a cannon to go with it!:(
Lets hope they get a clue and improve there sets to include more frigures and do something better for a base for the figures. I don,t like ther plane round base they come on.
 
I dread, they continue to disperse, because look at some of their future projects :
