I just received the first half of my 2013 Hiriart order which included 61 sets for 15 other collectors and me. The older I get, the heavier these boxes seem to be. This is set No. 1338 THE 12TH LANCERS for Damian an me.

Thanks Jeff, I think I lucked out this year and received three shipments instead of my usual two. Damian and I ordered nine different British Cavalry sets. The only ones in the Hiriart catalog that I didn't order were the Household Cavalry sets. More to follow.

Beautiful cavalry sets, Mike. I have always loved the lancers in particular and the 16th Lancers are a favorite, with their reverse color red jackets and blue plastrons. -- Al

Thank you Al. The lancers are among my favorites, too. And like you, I have always liked the red uniforms of the 16th Lancers. Damian and I also have two non-catalog lancer sets on the 2014 order: The 17th and 21st Lancers, in review order. In addition, we have ordered a non-catalog 21st Lancer mounted band with drum horse.

Thanks Cem. I like the gray colors, too. Hiriart also makes a Royal Scots Greys mounted band with drum horse which I do not have.

This is Hiriart's set No. 1069 THE 3RD HUSSARS for Damian and me. As I have mentioned elsewhere, I really like the way Hiriart has unique labels for almost every set.

Thanks Buster, it is a lot of fun---just like Christmas. Gawd, I hope not, I pay more than my fair share of Federal Income Taxes as it is. Next post will have your set.
