Perry Heavy Cavalry - Cuirassiers

In addition to the box of Dragoons I also added a box of the Heavy Cav.  This is a clever set that enables both Cuirassier & Carabinier options.  The plastic sprue is crammed full of parts but the figures themselves are simple to assemble. I've gone for the 1st Regiment, ready to join Ney in his charges against the squares!
I've used the 'at charge' pose rather than the more sedate option.
Another choice is whether to have an officer, bugler or eagle carrier.  I decided on all three (bugler & eagle shown below) as I reckon the 1st deserves some pomp & circumstance!
The quality of this set is excellent - I'm now a real fan of the Perry Miniatures figures.  The launch of the new Prussian Line plastics can't come quickly enough (due to be on sale at Salute in April 2011)
