Any markings under the bases? Scale or size? You really need to include more info in your requests.
My first thought is that they are Tradition figures, from the 54mm model soldier range. They have the look of figures originally sculpted by Charles Stadden, and the bases resemble the bases on the model soldier range. But it's a WAG, until I might know more about the scale of these figures, or whether there are markings of any kind.
They could be Staddens from the old "custom soldier" catalog, or even going back to Norman Newton days, too. The shapes of the hands and the limbs might tend to suggest that, too.
From left to right, they depict a Prussian infantryman, a Bavarian infantryman, and a British Royal Horse Artilleryman, if I am not mistaken.
Prost!

Hi Guys,
I think they are Tradition Castings from the 1970s as they resemble the sculpting style shown in the book Military Miniatures by Simon Goodenough. I also concur with Brad on the ID. Great looking figures. Do you have plans for them or are you just trying to sort out what is what?
