Imex – 555 – American War of Independence British Artillery

Description:

American War of Independence British Artillery

Unpainted plastic soldiers in 1/72 scale depicting British artillery during the American War of Independence (or American Revolutionary War), April 19, 1775 – September 3, 1783.

This box contains 24 figures in 6 poses and 4 guns.

Being the only kit devoted to this particular subject, and while figures are nicely done, the four guns are equal and due they very small size, both barrel and carriage, they are not more than a small howitzer or mortar, other pieces would have been welcomed. The 6 crew men per gun is not perfect but quite generous as many brands usually issue just 4.

The situation can be saved up a bit by mixing this set with their counterpart Imex – 554 – American War of Independence American Artillery, exchanging some guns and some crew poses to achieve more variation.
