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.
Well, I think everybody wants a set like this so bad, that they want to be sure that strelets makes what they want.
I would like to see sailors of the guard (perhaps with some engineers of the guard). And if possible a set dedicated to the French navy. Crews, gunners,... Would be nice. Ex-gunners in greatcoat for 1813 campaign would also be nice. Could be used as elite infantry in gretcoat.
Question: why did Napoleon use them as infantry and not as artillerymen. After all, that was their job.
Ceasar's new sets are a Napoleonic treat.
Highland artillery.
British lancers.
Austrian Guard infantry.
Russian rocket troops.
French marines.
Check out the scans under their fantasy section.

Donald is pulling our leg - making jokes that is. Continuing an irrelevant discussion on the proper terminology for the napoleonic "marins de la garde", which he can not forgive Patrick for calling marines, he concluded the dispute with this announcement, including french marines in fantasy soldiers, exactly as the other mentioned sets are.
Some might find that funny. On April 1st last year, najemo showed plates of the uniforms of french napoleonic "hussards de l'air", first paratroops to be deployed from balloons. Some took that for real.
No offence taken at all. It's just that you got me a bit excited is all.:) Oh well, back to wistful waiting for more Napoleonic releases and/or announcements.
