Conscript Miniatures

25mm Napoleonic French and British

by Jim Birdseye

These figures come packaged 4 foot or two mounted for $3.98 a box. They are well cast and simple in design and sculpting. We received CFNC1 French Dragoon Trooper, CBN 08 British line Inf. Flank Co., Iight, CFN11 French Flanker firing and CBN 36 and 37 British command figures. They all measured about 28.5, but despite the tallness their heft is light for a Barrett measurement of 29L. The Dragoon trooper came with detached arm with saber or carbine. The poses were rather rigid and unanimated. The figures were proportionally well sculpted. Originally designed on commission for a wargame club in England, these figures can be obtained from Modeler's Mart, 1183 Ceder St. Safety Harbor, Fl. 34695. The full line is included in the catalog and includes most of the British and French troops from the 1812-1815 period.
