So generally I don't post a lot of non WGA stuff on the WGA forum. Or at least I try not to make topics about it.
But I needed to share this miniature set. Because on the entirety of the internet there is not a single picture of what Eureka's Princess Sandra's Infantry Command looks like.
I decided to get the set with my last Eureka order (how bad can they be thoughts I) and I wanted to share what they look like with the hobby community.
You know whose life sucks? The trooper assigned to carry around that f*cknormous drum.
Beautiful miniatures. Crisp, with nice details. Seems like they would fit in fairly nicely in a lot of 18th century armies.
I suppose one could use them for Silver Bayonet, but as I understand it the tricorne was right out by the 1800s.
Sidenote: I have to say all my business transactions with Eureka USA have been great. Products always posted (actually picked up and moving) the next day.
Nice. I looked at the website based on your pic. I like their "pirate girls". But there are 7 figures and you cant choose which you get. It says "7 figures supplied randomly". :( I sent an e-mail asking if I order 7, will I get 7 random figures or would that guarantee me 1 of each. Will see what they say.
@William Redford
You can see the quality/look of some of their other miniatures here:
Cossacks.
And here:
Grenzer and Cossacks.
They look like nice figures, good buy, congratulations.
Size comparison with a Brigade Games ""Spanish Rebel Command I" set.
@William Redford
Did you email Eureka/get a reply yet?
I need to email them about this mini:
(Miniature painted by Ty Chapman).
I can't find it on the website.
@JTam yeah. They answered promptly but a bit unsatisfactory. They said I will be sent a mix of what is currently available which SHOULD be all 7...
im still debating it.
@William Redford Dam thats a bit 50/50 was it not, good luck Bill, routing for you.
"Rebellion" is great campaign book. Outstanding history, analysis, information on formations and uniforms, etc. Really well done.
So, I never ended up ordering the pirate girls. I am not buying anything for myself until the holidays are over, but in February I plan on making a Eureka order. They have some nice spanish and portugeuse conquistadors, some civilians, the pirate girls and the Princess Sandra stuff. I saw this picture of the artillerists, and I think they would fit with some of my stuff.
@William Redford
Sounds good. All my Eureka USA orders have gone really well. They've had the order in the mail and moving the next day.
