Mars Turkish Eyalet Infantry

Posted by Neilad on 22 Apr 2016, 08:00

I've only ever purchased the odd set of Mars figures and was extremely disappointed in the size of the Heavy Turkish Infantry. In fact these would sit better with 28mm figures then they ever would with 1/72. I see that they now have a new Eyalet Infantry set. Really like the Redbox figures. I'd be interested in the Mars ones to compliment the Redbox figures just to add some variety but after the last disappointment I wonder whether these would have the same scaling issues.

My concern is that almost all the figures have the "Turkish" costume and only a few look "Balkan". At least fewer turbans and more fur trimmed hats would be good. I would think most of us are interested with battles against Austrian/Polish/Russian forces where a large number of troops would come from that part of the Ottoman Empire.

Wait for the scans to appear in Plastic Soldier Review to find out the size - it has saved me more than once from wasting money on giants...
