25mm Old Glory Hessian Brigade - Painted

Ready to be captured at Trenton!
...or fight in the Seven Years War as well!

These were:
- carefully cleaned of mold lines and flash, 
- professionally painted to a superior standard, 
- then sealed with a "miracle dip" mix for lasting wear on the table top.  
I have figs that are 20 years old and veterans of numerous tabletop battles, and the Miracle Dip has preserved them very well.


Original Cost: Old Glory Army price = Infantry are $1, Cavalry are $2.50, 
Painting: $3 for foot, $5.50 for cavalry.  

Price per figure: 
$4 foot, 
$8 horse, 
$12 for Mtd Generals, heroes, etc


Price point is between Fernando Enterprises Collector and Showcase LINK. And obviously you save a lot on shipping metal to and from Asia!

Will ship any way you want at actual cost. 
***Figs will NOT include or be on the bases for safe packaging***

Payment by Zelle, Paypal, Venmo, or check [must wait to clear].

Each knight includes the figure mounted and dismounted.
Each bag of foot has 4 in it.

I am selling these at $10 USD each, or 6 for $50 USD, 13 for $100. USD
