Hi
new French Infantry masters are on show on the hat website with an amazing variety of head types for conversions etc...

They are also mooting a new range of Nap cavalry 1/32nd

hat are looking for suggestions for making the horses to go with the Napoleonic cavalry - they are trying to work out the best way of doing this without escalating the costs involved for the producer and the buyer
Any ideas can be posted on their 1/32nd blog on their main website
Regards

I,m glad to see that Hat is showing at least some interest in the idea of doing some 1/32scale cavalry but they seam to be a little hesitant about diving into to it due to cost?
I,d be willing to pay a bit extra for the sets if they do them right and not half assed like most of whats avaiable out there right now. The Italeri sets are the best out there right now and those are far from cheap and they sell well I believe? good enough where they have done a few sets already.
I,d rather see Hat not even do cavalry at all if the sets are just going to be more crap sets to add to the rest of the crap 1/32scale sets that are out now.:(

Lets just hope if they do take the dive and get it done right and the figures look good and are not undersized like other have been and the horses look good and are large enough and don,t look like petting zoo ponies.:p

I,d really like to see some gaps filled in the napoleonic line, like Russian and Prussian cavalry.
I,d also like to more french cavalry done in plastic like Cuirassiers, polish lancers, french line lancers, carbiniers and chassuers.

One can only hope but they seam a bit hesitant on the subject so far due to cost issues and the belief that most will not buy cavalry figures in the bulk.
 
I dont se what the poroblem is they have allready done Ancient Cav sets plus the French Dragoons.
4 riders & 4 horses seems to work well...if they cant get Cav sets done then there's no point in pumping out all these infantry sets.
Thats like WW2 without tanks.
TSSD has some nice big horses so maybe hat should just make the riders sculpted with the saddles to fit the TSSD mounts.
