Napolen Red Lancer in 1-32 scale

The scale of 1/32 is very popular in model aircraft world, but rarely in figure world. Most figures are in 1/72 or 1/35 scale. So, it is a surprise to see MB figures releasing their first kit in 1/32. The Napoleon Red Lancer. It is the first in their "Military Historical Miniatures" series.

This is the first of a series of 1/32nd Napoleonic figures from Master Box, who has always given us unusual or creative modeling subjects. Upon opening this box, the modeler will find one sprue of gray plastic with 45 parts. Detail is good, with the kit representing a mounted French Red Lancer as he marches through Holland on his way to Russia, a local girl has provided a drink for him and his mount.

You want to read the full review in the IPMS USA link above, as Don Norton goes to explain the history behind the figure and the correct presentation. An excellent read.

You can get the kit over at your local hobby store. Or if you prefer to buy online, you can get it from Amazon or Dragon Model USA.
