Available from Elite Miniatures Australia (contact Nathan Vinson on 02 6573 1955). I have checked out the Russian, French and Wurttemburg flags and overall they are excellent. Around 5-8 flags, 25mm square, good colouring, fine detail and all for $8. The French range is available as per the divisional organisation for the 1812 campaign and the line flag is the 1812 version. The Russians are organised by Inspection and are all of the 1803 pattern. While 'bold and beautiful' I am a little disappointed because they would be better organised by division with a variety of the 1797, 1800 and 1803 patterns. Signifer do it so why not FftL? Check them out at the conventions - Nathan often turns up - or give him a ring. The verdict - check 'em out but take your money with you as you'll more often than not snap them up. More Reviews:
