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.
Allan,
Strelets have shown several masters for nap. Russians on various occasions over the past weeks.
Two sets of Russian Jaegers (skirmishing and marching) would be fantastic and are kind of overdue anyway.
I am very much looking forward to them as well. :slightly_smiling_face:
I have seen those pics but I was hoping to find pics of all the poses that are going to be in the box. Strelets normally lists them on their website but its not showing the items. I am now wondering if they might not be being released this year.
The pics they have shown are very nice and it looks like a second set is also being done with the musketeers.
Well, several distributors list this set as one of those that should be available with the upcoming release batch.
Not all figures for the announced sets have been revealed yet. Just a little more patience, hopefully we will have them in our hands soon. :wink: :sweat_smile:
There has been previews of certain poses now and then, but as yet at time of this post, no full exposure of what a box will contain.
I too look forward to seeing this set available. These troops have been badly missing for those that wish to do battles involving late war Russians.
Russian Jagers and Musketeers in the 'classic' late Napoleonic uniform, and in action, are badly needed. There is only the excellent (but limited pose-wise) Zvezda set, and the now very old and somewhat poor ex-ESCI set, to rely on in this scale.
I'm sure I'll be buying a few of these when they are released...subject to the poses not-yet-seen- here being OK (I'm sure they will be).
I went on spec., given the lovely masters shown so far and the quality of Strelets' offerings, and have four boxes on the way (of about ten that I 'need').
I'll send you some photos, IF they arrive before photos get posted elsewhere!
I am hoping we will see something soon I normally go for single pose battalions except for firing lines, so my order is normally about 12 or 13 boxes of each Napoleonic set, i am trying to reduce the amount of spares i have left over and also make sure that I get enough to complete my divisions.
I also have bad memories of sets being unavailable or astronomical prices after first release.
