Been having a search for these models but only seem to be able to find painted larger ones.
I'm looking for the GW Epic type size models or slightly larger, unpainted and if possible with movement trays. I would be looking for French and British troops.
The idea will be to have them on top of a map of the area for guests at a Waterloo Ball meal to push around on the table like an operations room table.
My google fu is failing, can anyone help?

I think you are reffering to 15mm figures right ?
A quick google search should bring them up for you,

These guys seem to sell all that you are looking for, hope that helps.

Epic is 6mm, not 15mm.

Try Old Glory Miniatures... I don't think they have pics on their site, but I have their 10mm Austrians, they come 5 to a strip (and cav are individual horse and rider).

10mm is the same scale as Warmaster figs, and they'd be perfect for table top markers (I used Warmaster models for a Generals Compendium campaign to mark territory)
*edit: they do have some pics of painted models on their site under the country links above

Thanks for the links! 6mm, 10mm, 15mm are all excellent. I wasn't too sure on the epic size but the 10mm seems ideal, shame old glory miniatures arn't in the UK.

All depends what the mess wants, but I think it will be british and french troops, as for matched it'll be whatever they buy then painted by my gaming club.
