Description:

Chinese Light Cavalry
16-17 century

Unpainted plastic soldiers in 1/72 scale depicting Chinese light cavalry during the 16th and 17th centuries. These centuries are the declive of the Ming dynasty till collapse.

Box contains 12 Mounted figures in 6 different poses. Horses also come in 6 different poses. These men are unarmoured which is what you expect from a light cavalry and the main weapon is the bow, with three poses using it. This set has some mould problems, and both horses and some poses shows an excessive amount of flash compared to the brand best works.

*There is a misprint in the back box, in all the trilogy of the Chinese 16-17 century. Two sets of horses are used in the sets, each with six poses, the back box shows a mix of these two sets, but content of the bx may be different. Of the two sets, one is quite worse than the other, together with an excessive amount of flash compared to other sets of the brand. In at least the first production batch, both light and heavy cavalry boxes shared the same horses, being different in the medium cavalry box.
