Intended as a resource to help identify vintage wargames figures before posting them more publicly on the Hinton Hunter, Old Metal Detector, or Lone S Ranger blogs
Hi Uwe. The sash does make him look British but I don't know about that plume. I did wonder about a naval officer but the plume would be ridiculous on board ship, especially below decks! I don't have a very good Scruby list, just the Historifigs site.
i've had a look in an old 1991 Scruby catalogue and the likely suspects are ref 3193/3194 Rhinebund/saxon officer or standaard bearer ref 3146 Prussian officer 1806 hope this helps cheers old john
I am intending to use this site to post pictures for identification help before blogging them publicly on the Hinton Hunter, Old Metal Detector or Lone S Ranger sites. You can use the comments feature to respond and see any ideas others have left. If you want to post pictures here for others to help with, let me know and I can arrange the right to post. I won't be publicising the site in general, it's really to enable us to do this on line rather than by e-mail and hopefully with higher definition pictures. The site is invitation only but I am happy to invite anyone you think may be interested to join.

Hi clive,
from the style a Scruby figure. Looks like a British officer, maybe from the Egypt 1800 range?
cheers
Uwe
