I just came home with the... 9322 Russian Infantry Commandand 9325 Prussian Landwehr Command sets. Both have issues with "short shots" in the area of the sword/hangers, the hilts being not fully formed in the mold. If you pick these sets up, check the contents 1st. I looked at several boxes of the Russians at the store and all had the same problem so I bought the set anyway just to finish the Russian force in my collect. Arms on the Russian color bearer do not fit well and the left arm socket needs to be drilled out. All the figures are a bit squat looking but match the two previous infantry set.
The 9325 Prussian Landwehr Command set has 2 Prussian regular infantry poses, another officer and a fifer. I can add 6 more figures to the Prussians I already have. I have found that Imex horses work well so far with the horseless officer figure in the 9322 Russian Infantry Command set.
I'll post pictures later and I plan to send a request to HaT to replace the defective parts.

I,m sure they could fix this buy cutting a vent into the mold? It looks like an issue of trapped air in the mold that needs to escape to somewhere but is trapped not allowing the plastic to get to this area, I don,t see why cutting a small channel into the mold to allow the air to escape couldn,t fix this? I don,t know how big a problem this is with this type of mold? but it seams fixable to me???
