Already available, new Spanish range by Ian Mountain and new Swedish figures as listed below:

 

This range is sold in packs of 4 figures. Where variants are indicated, they will be supplied at random.  Most packs will also include an extra head to cater for those who like converting.

 

The first release depicts Spanish Infantry in 1808.  Most Spanish Line Regiments were very under-strength.  It would not be unusual for two thirds of a regiment to consist of new recruits. This led to a shortage of uniform and equipment. The first Battalion consisted of 2 Companies of Fusiliers and 2 Companies of Grenadiers, the second and third Battalions each consisted of 4 Companies of Fusiliers. We have depicted the range of uniforms from full dress, campaign dress and undress to civilian dress with a variety of equipment.

 

All packs are £4

  • SPN1 – Line Infantry in full dress, march attack

  • SPN2 – Line Infantry in undress jacket and forage cap, march attack (2 variants)
