HaT – 8198 – Austrian Grenadiers.

Description:

Austrian Grenadiers.

Unassembled plastic figures in 1/72 scale depicting Austrian Grenadiers during the Napoleonic Wars.

Box contains 60 figures in just 10 different poses.

While sculpture or casting of the figures is right, the mix of poses and the low number of them, makes this figure set a bit hard to deal with. The box contains four equal sprues as the picture below, and most of the figures are marching poses. You also get a sort of little command per sprue, consisting in one officer and a drummer (you get 4 of each). There is only one firing pose, and one reloading one, so compose a firing line is pretty hard with just this figures. The other four figures per sprue, are holding or advancing, with the musket leveled.

In our opinion the mix of poses of the box almost ruin the work done and the set is only useful to create a marching unit, for what yo get 28 figures in 4 poses, plus the command ones (though the officer is not marching, but one of those classic poses waving his sword).
