Strelets – 036 – Crimean War British Lancers

Description:

Unpainted plastic soldiers in 1/72 scale depicting British Lancers during the Crimean War, one of the three different corps that composed the Light Brigade famous by the vain “epic” “Charge of the Light Brigade”.

Box contains 12 mounted figures in 12 different poses. Horses also come in 12 poses.

This set is pretty good, probably the best of the three sets that Strelets devoted to the subject, the Light Brigade, with a generous offer for both figures and horses of 12 different poses, well cast and quite well sculpted. The Emhar set probably still stands ahead of this set in terms of sculpture and detail, but the so short number of poses issues by Emhar is a big odd to depict the subject, and this case, it’s fair to say that Strelets British Lancers are the best option to depict the subject in the particular world of the 1/72 scale plastic figures, always in the middle of the toy world and hobbyist world.
