Jeff,

You are right, the variety of toy soldiers that Hiriart produces is amazing. I also agree that they do have a nice glossy finish.

Beautifully bright uniforms. Partial to the French, as always, but I continue to be impressed by the wide combination and very colorful uniforms of the Central and South American units. -- Al

Thanks Al, me too. A while back, I believe I mentioned elsewhere that I really had no interest in collecting Central and South American units until I saw Bob 's Hiriart sets. With this order, I now have units from Mexico, Guatemala, Columbia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil.
