Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
Like many other sets this is also about expectant figures that are not my favorite slater though well made. My preference goes on moving and actioning figures. My hope is to know if these armies will be produced in action anyway. Thank you Strelets and keep us amazed. Greetings from Italy.
I don't think anyone has actually done a set of regular Prussian uhlans for the Napoloenic Wars, as the old Hat set depicted the Lutzow Freikorps uhlans. So I think there is definitely room for a set of them in reserve and another set at the charge.
Hi Strelets,
I like them .... but there are Linear not Strelets 😉 unless you're telling us you're going to provide an additional Prussian Ulhan box.
Isn't it cheating a bit? Just kidding.
Cheers

unlike our previous teaser, hopefully, this one will be a subject for a friendly week-end conversation:
Best regards,
Strelets
Dear Strelets,
It's always a special treat to see new Friday's Teaser Pictures. Thank you so much! This weeks Cavalry displays exceptional details. I especially love the detail on the flag on the lances that have a little line dividing the top and bottom. I can imagine the top being red color and bottom white color like so many cavalries displayed.
Because your Colonial subjects are some of my favorites of your sets, I hope you will consider making an "Add-On Set of Boer War British Lancers Set II" in pith helmets. I like Set I and have already bought and received more of your first British Lancers Set I in the newer lighter tan color to match the newest British Colonial sets.
That's my future wish for Cavalry sets!
You guys are great international friends. Our world needs more Strelets type global minded citizens.
Have a great weekend Strelets Team, and thank you, again. Your hard work is appreciated. - GC

White above black for Nap. Prussians.
The turned heads are for moulding purposes, I'd guess but a sharp blade, piano wire & glue would fix this.
I want the figures in a standing, "reserve" pose but really wouldn't whine too much if they ended up in action poses.

Excellent preview of a much requested subject. :+1:
Extremely pleased that Strelets is taking up this essential troops now, because earlier attempts by other manufacturers were rather pathetic.
Looking very much forward to Strelets 1813-15 prussian cavalry and hope for various sets for this & similarly neglected but indispensable nap. subjects. :smile: :+1:

I disagree, other manufactures sets were for the time a breath of fresh air, I remember opening a box of Prussian lancers and thinking WOW! , just because someone made them, things have come on in the last twenty years or so, it does no harm to remember that we were not always spoiled for choice.
I liked the other set and I still like it. Now, thinking about my previous post where I said I prefer action figures, it occurs to me that I already have good action figures in this uniform so it will be good to get these new standing poses for variety. Being spoiled for choice won't do me too much harm.
The idea of laying these riders is great. It allows to collect large quantities of figurines on the same diorama. I would dream to have the same thing with French horse hunters before 1812 to have flanks guards.
