Expeditionary Force Napoleonic French Imperial Guar Horse
Greetings from Singapore!
Very pleased to inform you of the release of a new set in the “54mm Napoleonic Wars – French Imperial Guard” series.
54 IPG 02 Horse Grenadiers (Cavalry)
All models are supplied unpainted.
The planned sets for the Imperial Guard series are as follows:-
1. IPG 01 Old Guard Grenadiers (sculpted)
2. IPG 02 Horse Grenadiers (this release)
3. IPG 03 Guard Foot Artillery (in-progress)
4. IPG 04 Guard Command (sculpted)
All the above sets will have options for French Regiments (1804-1808 in bicorne); and Peninsular War French (1808-1812 in shako).
Hope the above information is of interest.
The set contains 5 model soldiers plus 5 horse models comprising of 1 officer and 4 troopers including an option arm for a trumpeter. The heads and arms are interchangeable to enable the assembly of different action poses.
The Horse Grenadiers are combat rather than ceremonial troops and have many illustrious battle records. They are dressed and equipped as dragoons and are issued with a carbine. The unique features of their uniform are the bearskins cap and the aiguillette (shoulder cords).
Old Guard
This set will be followed by the Foot Grenadiers of the Old Guard plus the options. The original plan was to release the infantry first but toolings issues delayed this set and thus have to be released later. We expect to release this in September 2021 or so.
Hope that you and your customers will find something of interest in these models.
The Next Release
The next set to be released is from the 54mm WW2 Pacific War range – British at Far East series, starting with the Infantry Rifles Defence Section. This set is already in toolings.
Looking forward to your kind support.
Stay safe.
Cheers,
Scott
