Rob thanks that rules that out then - looking more and more like a Minot.

It certainly could- the other thing that stopped me thinking Minot- at least initially was the fact that the Shabraque is a separate casting- unlike the Waterloo French Curassiers by minot which have saddle on the horse. but maybe the 1806 stuff was different. I wonder what happened to the moulds- I've seen his Zulu war range which I also liked.Big Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17235478427317774609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780195401099519720.post-5949695570203628902013-06-26T07:16:16.545-07:002013-06-26T07:16:16.545-07:00Andy,

One of those sets (a skirmish scene including jaeger, casualties, and a fallen tree) appeared on ebay a while ago and i stupidly let it go.<br /><br />Could it be a Minot figure on another manufacturers horse?DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09872820354048836577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780195401099519720.post-80113582611121883412013-06-26T02:30:34.276-07:002013-06-26T02:30:34.276-07:00DC - He's Stadden sized.

I remeber the GHQ fis- just as being decidedly fiddly- Didn't know Miont had done 1806 pruissians though - this could be one of them but the horse looks too good for Minot- I have some of his Waterloo Curassiers. However having said that its the best shout so far. I'm a bit of a fan of Minot on the quiet- he did some rubbish-Thane Tostig- but some of his stuff is excellent.

He did do 1806 Prussians....<br /><br />If you'd said it was a 25mm then i'd have suggested the short lived GHQ multi-part figures....<br /><br />I've been no help whatsoever, but i'm intrigued, so i hope you identify him.
