Napoleonic Wars – British Army

Infantry

Armies in Plastic

5503 – British Green Jackets

This company produced a box representing the famous 95th Light Infantry Regiment. As usually with this maker the same figures can be sold under different references, what can be very annoying. For example these figures represent also 5505 Portuguese Cazadores (Light Infantry).

The sculp work is fair and not very sharp.

Artillery

Artillery was an essential part of any army during Napoleonic Wars. However there are not many references dealing with this branch of the armed forces.

Armies in Plastic

5431 – British Royal Artillery

In each box you’ll get a cannon and five soldiers in the usual poses for this subject. The sculpting is fair as usual with the production of this company.

5457 – Royal Horse Artillery

The box for Horse Artillery includes a cannon and five soldiers but no horse. The cannon is the some as in reference 5431. The sculpting is not outstanding but after the paint job the figures look nice on the battlefield.
