Anybody make a line of these in 1/35 scale or larger? Wanted to do a Christmas Eve in New Jersey scene.
Cheers for rum rations!

The hessian uniforms where of prussion style. So I am shure you can convert Grenadiers or Jägers to hession ones.
or look at zinnfigur.com and use their searchengine with the words hessen or hessische / hessischer.

I am shure you will find some nice goodies.

Imrie Risley makes a large selection in 54mm. their quite old sculpts from the 60's I think and not quite up to current standards but are still nice.

Frank Miniatures do Hessian Fusilier in 1/35th, that is quite nice. I do wish more were available as I have the same idea as you. The Preiser figures are nice and would serve well as a base as I understand it (though I have never been able to get my hands on the sets). Micheal Roberts is comng out with some Hessians, but from what I understand they won't out untl next year and will be 1/25th.
