If it wasn't for the French opponents I would not have dismissed the idea of a frontier fort. That wall did not really appear to be part of a solid Brabantian farm such as Hougoumont or la Haie Sainte. Soil is too dry, too sandy also.

When the set designer goes nuts! Producer:"yeah, we're going to put these decorations in place." Manufacturer: "But, I just look at the books" Producer: "It'll look cooler than your warehouse, ok. Also do you have larger miniatures?" Manufacturer: "Most of the time i sell 15 maybe 25mm scaled figures" Producer: "Psssst, the camera cant pick up 25 millimeters!" and so the 50mm range was born

@theBaron0530 3 года назад

Those were top-of-the-line in the 60s. Today, most collectors and painters turn their noses up at them. I collect them, though, along with Staddens, Rose, and other figures made back then. They still paint up nicely. @1:46 That's not a "British frontier fort", that looks like the defense of Hougoumont during the Battle of Waterloo. @1:48 Looks like Prussians from the Napoleonic wars, marching past their Austrian allies who offer a salute.

@twostep1953 Месяц назад

The music is "Wellington's Victory". I still have the album; on the other side was "1812 Overture". Both have real cannons and muskets being fired! The irony being that Beethoven hated royalty and originally named it for Napoleon - until he claimed the crown for himself. But it took about a decade before the British (or anyone else) beat the French (Talavera, I think).
