After quite a lot of months looking at their greens, they're finally closing in. They're due in November. Command sprue isnt here yet though
British Hussars 1808-1815
The box will contain 14 hussars, including an officer and a trumpeter. I've included five variants of head gear in the box (all figures have the
variants) which will allow you to make up British, KGL and Hanoverian Hussars from 1808 to 1815. Within the variants I've included the very tall early fur cap used by the British during the first years of the Peninsular and strange peakless castor cap which seems to have been an emergency replacement for it before the peaked shako came in. In the pictures most of hussars are shown without their haversacks and canteens, they will in fact have them on the finished models.
Here's a few examples of the built plastics British Hussars and what you can do with them. These were the first shots from tooling so there's a couple of miner tweaks to do. The command sprue will be arriving soon, so we'll show you them too when we have them.

But seriously, I'm pleased to see some plastic British Nappy Cavalry lurv at last. Ever since they released the Frenchy Cuirassiers I've been waiting for these bad boys!
Here's hoping they are available at Smoggycon next month.
