That's why i changed to mantic. They want my money so much as GW, but actually do things to get it...

Im looking forward to see other models in plasti-resin, maybe cavalry and heroes ^^

Theirs!

lol but whose, the Horseguard or the wraiths?
The Horseguard wear a style of helm that goes back maybe 200 years?
Mantics Wraiths clearly draw on the style

I don't see anything weird about it myself, the French Cuirasseurs had a similar helm. Not my field but possibly derived from the 18th century Dragoon Helm.
I think it is typical of heavy cavalry

please no jokes about polishing helmets
this is a family show

Well I meant the Wraiths, but it now appears they must be deceased horseguards then
