This is a rubber mould that can be reused hundreds of times. The figures can be painted in the uniforms of 1700-1760 for England, France, Sweden, Prussia and Russia.
The master figures were initially carved out of wood and still retain some features of a wood carving. Many of these were re-made when we moved over to rubber moulds which could produce more rounded figures (Karoliners).
These early flats are quite hard to cast and require more of the detail to be 'painted in' than our more modern series.
This is part of a artillery crew formed using this figure, PA33 and PA35.
This product is not suitable for children under the age of 14.
I prefer this figure over the corresponding figure in the Karoliner/Wild Geese range. Although the details are more blurry, the pose is more natural and the figure is carrying a round shot instead of the cylinder with ball and powder. Cut of and glue on a better moulded hat taken from another figure and the difference in scuplting is less noticeable!
