Prussian Musketeers 1806 - Review Part 1

The basics: 28 mm size, produced by the Forgotten & Glorious Company of Art, 'Musketeers in Attack March' with Command Group. The poses are realistic. Some of the equipment and body parts are sculpted a bit out of scale, but the men look very realistic and have a lot of detail. Uniform accuracy is good, and they are depicted in (pretty neat) campaign dress - I guess they'd be looking a lot scruffier after a few weeks of war. Suitable for the period of 1806-07 - and with a bit of leniency for other nations of the 'early' Napoleonic wars (Spanish, earlier Prussians). I found the poses relatively challenging to paint, so they are probably not suitable for beginners.

What I like: Lifelike poses, good details, good variety (different poses for the soldiers, complete command set (sapper, drummer, NCO, officer, 2 different colour bearers)
What I don't like: Bayonets are quite fragile (all of them were bent in the package - according to the company this will be fixed in the future); relatively limited scope for now (there are only Grenadiers in March Attack and a mounted officer available in the range - the mounted officer is quite a nice sculpt as well).

Additional comment: These sets were part of a crowd funding campaign (disclaimer: I contributed), and on the list for future editions are Fusiliers, Schuetzen for Musketeers, Grenadiers, and Fusiliers, Jaeger, Hussars, and Artillery, but it seems to take them a lot of time to get these editions ready, so I don't expect the complete list to be finished before mid-2015, if that.

Alternatives: There are a few older editions of 28mm 1806 Prussians - for example Elite Miniatures has a quite complete line, but I don't know anything about their quality. AB miniatures has 18mm 1806 Prussians which look great on pictures, and HAT has a nearly complete range of 1806 Prussians in 1:72 - plastic figures. I painted some of the HAT range (you can add the Italery cuirassiers and convert some officers, then you have complete coverage) and quite liked them, but of course 28mm metal looks more impressive.
