I opened the pictures of the Musketeers figures (let's call them what they are) and my reaction was 'OH MY!'. After the disappointment of the German figures which promised so much but which were so far off the mark - these look the business. Thanks to the guys at VK club the pictures are there - https://vk.com/club7879149?w=wall-7879149_18117%2Fall

If you are like me and think that the Richard Donner films are the best versions of those stories then I think Ultima Ratio have nailed it. (Thank you Haron). I really can't wait to get my grubby paws on these. Richelieu, the ladies, the musketeers and Chritopher Lee as Rochefort, they're all there. (You can tell that I'm excited can't you?)

The Italian wars figues are interesting and the guy with the artilery shot gauge board (for sizing the cannon balls) is interesting and I can see some useful figures in there, but not as exciting as the msuketeers.

The musketeers certainly look splendid, I hope they don't make my Mars mounted musketeers need replacing!

Loving these, especially the Italian Militia. God bless Ultima Ratio, hope they'll make many more interesting sets in the future.
