Just received the 5th regiment foot soldier of 1790's in the Redcoats range and i want to congratulate one more time for the beautiful craftsmanship displayed ..a special mention for the colour..in Hamilton Smith plate on the facings of the various regiments Gosling Green (the colour of the 5th) is listed as Green of brownish shade..i didn't have idea of this colour till i've seen it on the figure!In fact in the plate is more a willow or pea green (undoubtly discoloured after many years)..so my congratulations to Ken and all the staff at WB for this figure!(p.s.the pic in the WB site doesn't do justice to the colour of the facings)http://www.firstgearonline.com/dealers/storeImages/44004HiRes.jpg
