Grenadiers a Pied, in campaign dress, Waterloo 1815.

Thats the way I like to see the fighting poses, not in prade uniforms, but with some mud, dust or dirt on them, so now I'm waiting to see the painted masters

I second you John on this one! Nice figures indeed.

I hate to be the death of the party, but I, for one, am VERY disappointed. I had hoped this pieces wouldn't be so stunningly detailed, so I wouldn't have to buy them. Oh well- what can I do{sm4}!

WoW ... Beautifully exquisite figures

I have been admiring TG's WWII figures from the sidelines for a while ... Now I just can't wait to acquire my very own TG Nap releases.

Certainly a very well sculpted figure but I was hoping for a different period than Waterloo.
The "Early Empire" would have been more unique but I guess Waterloo sells!

I agree with both of these- I would have liked Spain :redface2:. But Waterloo is great too.

The Peninsula campaign would be great as well.......

I think they will be add-ons to K/C's Guard Napo Infantry. (The british rocket troops are something like add-ons to the K/C brit. artillery too...)

Would the early campaigns in Italy offer much scope for a collector? It seems an interesting period given that it helped to make Napoleon's reputation.

I've just noticed a couple of comments about the new Grenadiers a Pied being for only the Waterloo Camapign, but I beg to differ.

The good thing with these guys is that they didn't change thier uniform for the whole of the Empire era (1804 -15) and therefore they can be used in any campaign. The line infantry, light infantry, artillery, and some cavalry changed the cut of thier coats after the horrific expedition into Russia in 1812, which almost deciated the Garde Armee.

Having the greadiers in campaign uniform means they will fit in with any battlefield, but mabe not 'on parade'.

Well done Tom, for doing something different.

True, but I would have liked some line infantry and opponents from earlier periods.....
Maybe TG will do some Prussians and Austrians.

Yes, I would have liked troops from other countries or something different in the French camp like Light Infantry, much like the Rocket Battery which was different.

What else can I say ... the Guardsman is really a nice add on the existing K&C Guards. Hope TG will do many more

[Naps...just Naps]

I like what I have seen of the French Naps from TG so far but I really like the rocket troops^&cool.
I have pre-ordered both versions.
I also asked TG if it would be possible to produce a transport cart/limber and horses as support for the rocket troops.
I emailed various pictures of rocket troop limbers to TG and I hope they can deliver at some stage.
If anyone else thinks this would be a good idea please let TG know.

Thanks
Paul
