I've got some 15mm Napoleonic Russians.

If I decide to finish these off I need to find a currently compatible manufacturer.
Alternatively if anyone wants them I could agree a reasonable price.

Could be tabletop, in which case try 15mm.co.uk - they have the moulds.

Thanks Ian
I had already worked out that the trail that led in this direction petered out roundabout 2004-6.
Looks like the same style:

Yes, they look close enough to use. I'll maybe get some just to be sure.

Spoken like a true wargamer!
THey are gradually re-releasing the various ranges they have, did the Brits and Frogs first. They are nice figures, but don't mix well, my French lancers dwarf the Currassier and Dragoons which are mini-figs.

The second box is largely Minifigs French and yes, they do look small compared to the (Tabletop) Russians.
Think they may be Jacobite miniatures which I believe have been poop for some time now. I have some of their Prussian figures closest match in my collection probably Chariot or Essex.
Edit. Seems the moulds were picked up a few years back by Elite Wargames and Models. They don't seem to have a proper website just blog and Facebook but you could try email

They sort of look like some old TTG ones

I've emailed an enquiry to them.

Tabletop was my first suggestion.
The old TTG's are the ones being sold by www.15mm.CO.UK and being sold as brickdust

I think the figure range may have been remastered in the past as the figures look similar but not identical.
No matter as they may be close enough for me to mix in with what I have already.

Yes, i looked at the entire series, and it seems they reworked them to have bare flag poles.
TTG Austrians were some of the first metals I purchased around 1984. The infantry had bare flagpoles cavalry moulded flags. They are exactly the same as now in the Brickdust range so I don't think any have been resculpted.

Don't know really, just remember seeing them and they look very similar in style. Maybe same sculptor?
