I tried for several years to buy some here in the US, where Pontoonier is located, but they were never available over the internet, only at conventions the owner/operator happened to attend. I was happy when Newline Designs picked up the range, though it did seem a bit strange to pay a British company to send figures to my home in America, when the figures had been made by an American company! Still, I was happy to do it. It's true it would be perfect if they'd moved on to Burmese cav (on their little jungle horses), elephants, guns, artillery crews, and elephants, as well as irregular "Dacoits". Perhaps Newline Designs can talk to Paul Hicks about expanding the range...?<br /><br />With regard to the helmet, Carbine is 100% correct, and I believe the colour plate he refers to in the old Osprey MAA North-West Frontier book, was in fact the visual reference for the figure in question. I still remember seeing it and reading about it as a boy, after first buying that Osprey book, and thinking that -- despite however more comfortable it allowed the wearer's head to feel thanks to its "all-around air-circulation" -- it was the stupidest-looking piece of military headgear ever made. As I recall, its extreme aesthetic shortcomings put the design out of business.<br /><br />Beautiful job painting the Pontoonier British command! If you have any interest in or need for Gurkhas, I find the ones in the Pontoonier range a bit nicer than those in the old Foundry NWF range -- and in my experience they mix in nicely with Empress and Perry figures.Mad Guruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03668417524454209192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670400813396652991.post-84710032185188263892012-09-18T00:36:52.403+01:002012-09-18T00:36:52.403+01:00Very nice work MichaelVery nice work MichaelCaptain Richard's miniature Civil Warhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17149386738466118837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670400813396652991.post-72394657125136120722012-09-17T23:18:11.789+01:002012-09-17T23:18:11.789+01:00Lovely work Michael!

They retail for £5 for a pack of 4 and have a pretty good range for the main protagonists. I have the feeling that the range was prematurely halted as I would loved to have seen Burmese cavalry, Elephants, artillery and Dacoits, a guerrilla force that would melt into the jungle after ambushing the British.
