La Garde arrived sans les AB Figures (excuse moi, mon frangalis!) ... I've just returned from the Alumwell show clutching the pack of sample figures thrust upon me by the ever genial Mike Hickling of Wargames South, who have just released AB Figures French Imperial Guard Infantry, these include an excellent officer (displaying remarkable sang froid - arms folded), an Eagle bearer (with the most well defined model Eagle I have ever seen), a sapper (whose axe actually has an edge to it) and three astounding grenadiers (who have all stepped straight out of a Detaille painting!!). More of these next issue and a box load of the new and impressive range of Minifigs that will be appearing "in the flesh" next issue.... More Reviews
