I have just received the first photos from Uruguay of special commission Hiriart Imperial Russian Life Guard Hussars as ordered by Bob, Fred, and me. The first photo is the five-figure set ordered by Fred and me. The second photo shows the nine-figure band ordered by Bob; the third photo includes the band with his five extra musicians. The fourth photo is a formation of these sets which also includes Bob's 10 figure double set. I really like the Life Guard Hussars' uniform and their flag.

Last year, we received the Imperial Russian Grodno Guard Hussars sets and this year, we are ordering Imperial Russian Dragoons. In 2016, we will be ordering both Imperial Russian Grenadiers a Cheval and 15th Hussars.

Very attractive sets and most impressive when displayed in the large numbers. Got to like the Russian cavalry. -- Al
 
Agreed . . . Hiriart troops are especially impressive en masse. They certainly are one of the premier 54mm manufacturers.

I agree Al. I previously ordered all five of the Imperial German cavalry sets as doubles with 10 figures; in addition, I also ordered bands for the life guards and totenkopf hussars. My only problem is finding room for the larger formations.

Thanks Al. Obviously, I must think so, too, since I continue to order them although I ran out room to display them several years ago.
