I have a lot of figs but I got these for xmas. First glossy figures I got and was just wondering.

My guess is that they're homecast, but I'm open to more specific info.

Prost!

I think that these are by Hampton Miniatures out of New England. See the Crown Military Miniatures site, look under Hampton, then Around the World. I first saw this company featured in Yankee Magazine back in the late 70s or early 80s under the name Warwick, I think. They do strangely attractive toy soldiers, like someone tried to crossbreed Imrie-Risley with Playmobil. Interesting stuff.

Good call, I think you're right. Here's a link to the page you cited:

The set displayed there doesn't show a flag-bearer, but I think these are Hampton Miniatures.

If everyone agrees on the ID, maybe we should update the title, to reflect the maker.

Prost!

I agree that they were out of New England and were first called Warwick Miniatures.
