Fusilier Grenadiers Some parts are separate to make a better fit for the final figures.

I haven't counted the buttons or measured the distance between the nose and upper lip but I like them very much. It looks like the fit on the separate pieces is pretty good - hope it holds up. I know converters will be excited about that aspect. It looks like the corrections have been made. Even the one noticeable area of flash looks to be in an easily remedied place if it can't be removed at the factory. I am even more excited about these figures. Thanks for the update.

We are getting closer to the finish line.
There are a couple of short bayonets and muskets which I am sure will be taken care of.
The major problem is that there seems to be two loading Grenadier figures instead of two marching figures. One loading figure is more than enough. Two are a liability. Please restore the second marcher as shown in all the previous layouts for this set.
I do not see the bayonet scabbards on the two marching Fusilier figures next to the standing firing figure.

Great to see the progress and even more great to hear that you are planning to let the Napoleonic Austrians follow them asap! I think that is only beneficial for sales to produce more in a short period of time! No further remarks from my side! Please keep up the good work!

Sorry for double. Something get wrong with quote. I mean a problem with two loading grenadiers instead of two marching on sprue.

I find this a great idea and hope you carry out with this, I also think you should make seven years war brits and french.

I think that 2 loading figures are necessary.

I hope these are ready in eight weeks, so I can come back from traveling and come back to this.

If I may repeat I believe this will be an excellent series of figures; IMHO the box art alone will be worth the price of a set.

Knowing Hatter's sense of humor you may have just set yourself up to be sent a carton of empty boxes.

I hope you will fix that thin figure. I mean firing pose from Fusiliers. And one marching figure is clearly smaller from the rest. Better pictures to get closer look are on Stan's blog here: - stansarmee.blogspot.com/2019/07/132-hat-austrian-syw-fusiliers-test.htmlGrenadiers look really good but personally I don't like two loading figures on sprue which means SIX loading figures per box!

Happy to read that my post helps. I e-mailed HaT because while I was painting I discovered a lot more flaws then I spotted at first side...I think that is were the new post from Admin comes from, with the question of how we want or 1/32 figures in order to get better quality. I am aiming at this post; hat.freeforums.net/thread/545/32-figure-collectors-figures-pollI think the current production technique that was used on them turned to not really work as hoped?..At least HaT is in touch with the factory and I am confident they will manage to solve it one way or the other! Again, Forum Admin my credits to you and the HaT team for being so transparent and involved with your costumers! Stan

When they are supposed to be released? And how about Napoleonic Austrians progress?
