Elite Miniatures

25mm Austrians 1805-1809

by Jim Birdseye

From Connoisseur, 2625 Forest Glen Trail, Riverwoods, Ill. 60015. These are larger 25mm figures measuring from 29-31 mm foot to eye. They are compatible to the Hinchliffe line but are more solidly cast. These are medium figures with a Barrett Measurement of 30M. We received Al German musketeer, A7 German Grenadier, All Jager firing and Al 2 Jager loading. The two Jagers were the most appealing figures of the lot. They were well animated but also had large casting knobs on the bases. Foot figures cost $1.00 each and can be purchased through Connoisseur from the address above. Gaming with 25mm Napoleonics seems to be on the rise and since every line produces French figures its nice to see quality Austrians and that's what these are.
