Toysoldiers - "Russian Artillery of the SevenYearsWar" made by FirstLegion

Manufacturer:   FirstLegion

Scale:   1:30 (60mm)


Hi,

as my favorite period of warfare is the SYW it is no wonder that I also try to get some SYW related figures for my collection of toysoldiers. But this is a hard way. There are only a few manufacturers having produced figures for this period.

There is for example a range of JohnJenkinsDesign called "The battle of Leuthen" that I have already published within a post in 2023 (Link to the former post). This manufacturer has also a lot of ranges concerning the FrenchIndianWar. Though this also belongs to the SYW in a kind I am talking about figures that represent the fightings on the European theatre. These are not wide spread, often hard to find and if you have been lucky to find them they are too often bloody expensive. Concerning "The battle of Leuthen" I was lucky to get the figures from a collection´s liquidation.

Another manufacturer that has produced some figures for the SYW as toysoldiers is FirstLegion. Very detailed and excellent painted figures but they also belong to the most expensive ones. So my collection of these figures is still small and the figures I already have would not have found their way into my collection if I hadn´t got them for very good prices.

The one range of figures I have managed to complete is the Russian Artillery of the SYW,

And here they are.

Cheers

Mike
