Yes, Brother Hank appears to have "Done the Math" on this new set. All poses appear to be new ones. If true, we can all do a . I've been beating my head against a wall asking for a completely original Big Box Set. Welp, looks like I must say "Thank You" to the S*R Team. Anyway, I remain one of the usual Gang looking forward to this set soon.
Cheers to S*R and to for your excellent and unending efforts to make an original and timeless contribution to this excellent hobby. Here's to 2009 !!!
Re: Re: Those new Blue Turks are looking mighty agressive
thin red line big set ,highlanders russian inf hussars and turkish foot with a turk command set omar pasha and his flunkys with big box only
there is 3 types of uniform here maybe 3 mini sets .but with strelets we do not know until the shroud is lifted. I hope the 2 green ones release together then i can ,make 2 divisons
the blue turks are open jacket later russo turk war maybe famed turkish chasseurs.All of them are most pleasing.
strelets- please can you redo the photos on rows 7 & 8
Dear Strelets
Unlike the others who seem to have computers that can see in the dark, rows 7 and 8 come out like silhouettes on my computer. Is it possible to redo these photos as they seem to be a command group and it would be nice to see the detail? Much obliged.
and Dear all
Strange that the Turks are in a big box set which is usually four sets but the Turks do look as if they could be 3 mini sets which they ought to be. I live in hope for 3 boxes of Turks and one of Highlanders in the big box set. The Russian Infantry got nowhere near the Highlanders and Turks in the Red Line though Don (Strelets do these) and Ural Cossacks could make up the Russian cavalry forces together with the Hussars.
We shall see.
Re: strelets- please can you redo the photos on rows 7 & 8
hello professori obrien, I recall Strelets once mentioned a term "redoubt troops" ,mmh i think not just Turks. but then i think well Brittish Grenadier and guards fought in glorious sandbag redoubt battle of the bayonettes at Alma.be good twin set.
I saw the "thin red line" mention way back on PSR Rouskie Hussars,russian Inf Turks Highlander.But then if it was simple i would say red line was the fez,chuckle. we find out soon, it has been a very long month for me already.
Re: Those new Blue Turks are looking mighty agressive
so can some tell what is exactly in thin red line ??? i see that tehre were hilanders and turks but will they add russian cavalry also to that set or not and when we will see russian and anglo - french artillery sets???
Re: Re: Re: Those new Blue Turks are looking mighty agressive
Hi Hank,
I am not sure about the latest update on the Turks as this Zouave-style uniform came in use after the Crimean war. So these guys (as well as the ones in greatcoat) are very useful for the Russo-Turkish wars. That is what is great news for me!
So lets hope I am right and there is another great range available soon!
