I think these are new to the market.
Shame most of the crew are accessorised with a Rammer !
Seller has sells Limber and Howitzer separately.

Yes, 3 gunners with rammers is a bit of an overkill.

If they sold the figures separately, that would be good, but I do like the gun and limber

Also check out some of the other Napoleonic figures, they are a copy of some of K&C's French Infantry series (NA100-110) {eek3}{eek3}

I don't get this company - so much of their stuff appears to be complete knock offs of other companies items...maybe it's legal in China, but I'm not going to be playing along

Yes would be better if they sold the crew individually, so one could see how they were in the flesh so to speak.
I've had a couple of their other Napoleonic range which have been fine, though I've always had to do some repainting due to incorrect colours, such as brown gaiters.

I don't own any K &C figures and have no intention of buying these ones when John has doubts I tend to listen as he has a lot of experience.

Perhaps Country Honors figures are knock offs of KC, however, KC has seemingly taken liberties with other manufacturers figures. In particular, KC FOB 146 is basically a scaled up version of Corgi's WWI Gurkha.

I think it's easier to make a claim that a manufacturer used a person's name or likeness without permisssion than a pose; there are only so many poses.

Too many differences between these two to say they are copies.

Perhaps Corgi's Gurkha served as the inspiration for KC's piece.
