Hi,
I've got this figure number CCC4, Revolutionary War British Drummer:

Which I've had for a few years. My question is, does this figure represent a particular Regiment?

Thanks

Pete

Hello Pete ( Chalklands);
Sorry for the late reply, but I (Believe that the figure is "representing" the Royal Welsh Fusiliers, Drummer, 7th foot, 1774.
If you look at the GREAT book "An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Uniforms From 1775-1783" - The American Revolutioary War" on PAGE 136 you will see that figure. (Or very close).

Also look at the latest release from K&C BR083.

Hope that helps --- Larry

As a follow up, I don't think that the Conte figures are necessarily designed to be a specific regiment. They were based on the very fictional and grossly inaccurate movie, "The Patriot".
But the sets have some great poses and the costs are not too bad. Let me know if you wish me to hunt up any more details or want further reference information on the book. -- Larry
