I just got my new John Jenkin's SF-04, French Militia set today.
Here are some close ups for the John Jenkin's fans.
The first thing I noticed when unpacking them, was the unreal weight of the figures.
They are really hefty in the weight department.
The figure in the blue coat, firing the musket, weighs 6 ounces.
6 ounces for a "standing" figure!
Just for references sake, if that doesn't register, that is 1/3 of a pound.
Now I love my Frontline, and I love my K&C, and I'm not looking for an arguement, but just for references sake,
I weighed a Frontline 24th Foot "firing" and he weighed less than 2 1/2 ounces.
I weighed a K&C Saracen, and he weighed 3 1/2 ounces.
Again, I love my Frontline and I love my K&C figures, but these French Militia of John Jenkins are some weighty boys.
These are some of the heaviest, strongest, most solid figures I have ever picked up.
