NEW RELEASE SNEAK PEEK: French Guard Horse Artillery!

TCS presents our latest and greatest Napoleonic release. French Guard Horse Artillery. What with all those folks snapping up our Naps we figured’ it was about time to introduce something new.

These Guardsman are traveling lite with their 6 pounder, ready to plug holes in the line! We’ve crafted great action and detail into this limited edition set. These items and others will appear at your dealer at the end of February.

Cheers!

Brian

Very valid question. The set is a five figure set with a 6 pounder gun. Very much along the same lines as what we have done in the past. This is quite a limited edition: 250. We just repeated some figures to lend drama to the promo pic.

Best regards,

Your are right on that aspect ...... maybe its shifted when he dismounted, but it doesn't look right to me either !!!!

And when you have a look at the trousers, they look baggy ....... I believe that the trousers were skin tight, made for riding, which was based on the hussar uniforms.

And even more striking is the hat is on back to front.... the cockade is on the left and the bag on the right..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out this from HISTOREX plates

Hi John

You are right about the headdress I didn't notice that.
