Drump mold
Mold damaged on recept, impossible to mold an arm with the drum stick. Response from Prince August: Please contact us and send us an image and we can check to see what happened and resolve it.
The Napoleonic wars took place around the start of the 19th Century and France had some of the most skilled and committed soldiers in the world. These soldiers are Imperial Guard Infantry, Drummer and Officer. This mould set contains three black rubber moulds that allow you to cast three French soldiers in different poses. These 54mm scale metal soldiers will require some assembly and can be glued together easily. They can also be soldered together.
It is important to have the basic casting equipment with these moulds so include either one of our starter kits or Kit 2000. No matter what moulds you have or select you will need casting metal to be able to make soldiers, it is wise to check out Prince August's bulk discounts on metal, the more you buy the cheaper per bar the metal becomes. You should be able to cast two figures, on average, per ingot of metal.
This product is not suitable for children under the age of 14.

This set defines what is best about Prince August. Impeccable fit and finish, great detail, outstanding ability for product interchange with other moulds. It also shows the downside of some products. Several small pieces are located in 'difficult to vent' locations in an attempt to consolidate one figure per mould. This is very true on the the marching trooper where the sword/bayonet frog is located in an area almost impossible to vent without cross channels to other pieces. The trooper goes together extremely well with such minimal gaps that Super-Glu or Loc-Tite gel (my preferred) works great without resorting to two-tube solutions such as JB Weld for gap filling. If you want nothing more than to just bang out a large formation of marching infantry, this is THE set to get.

Good moulds and detail. I had to drill a few hole to get the flow right, but now castings are crisp. I would like the chance to buy moulds singly or make up your own three in a box. There are a few in some of the other sets I would like but would not but just to use one.
Excellent forms, fine portrayal of details.Children were happy!!!
A little more complicated than the basis kit I purchased before, more required when casting and more time consuming to fix arms, weapons etc
An epic film...enjoy!
