They’re Here! And They’re WHITE!

My 1st order of Hat Austrian German Command sets arrived today and they are excellent!  


And they made them in WHITE as I was hoping for! In a perfect world I would have preferred a slightly greyer-white, but I am so happy they aren’t cream or some even worse color.

Given the separate backpacks & hats I am just bagging all the parts as I take them off the sprue to avoid losing any until I have time to glue them together.

I will post more pictures as soon as possible.

Cheers

Hat Austrian German Fussilier command set on its way!

Finally found a retailer with them in stock, so was able to order a few sets of the brand new (and still not available at most retail outlets) Hat Austrian German Fusiliers Command sets!

They shipped today.  Will post pictures & review when they arrive!  

After more than 11 years since Hat first showed masters of these figures I am very excited to final have them in my hands!  

Cheers

Countdown to availability of the new Hat Austrian German infantry command set!

This set is due “in October” so I am diligently (and not very patiently) watching the retail websites hoping to see then available in inventory for purchase!

View of the test version of the figures from Hat.com: http://hat.com/Curr9/Bx9400SP/Bx9331SYWAC.html

Very excite, despite knowing it will likely be another year before the Hat Action & March sets are available to build my Austrian German fusiliers battalions (you know…  the guys that made up like 60%  of the Austrian army at Wagram!)

Cheers 



So I did order additional Hat Carabiniers in the new true French blue! Lol

 Decided to buy another 5 sets of the Hat Carabiniers in the latest dark blue of the recent restock to (re)make my 2 guard Chasseur bats.   ...
