I had a pack of the new Empress Miniatures BAOR British arrive today to compare with some old Mongrel figs I had. Great service from Empress and the figures are beautifully sculpted and cast, with good natural looking proportions.
L to R: Empress, Mongrel, Eureka, Empress
They are big lads though! They stand about 35mm high to the tops of the helmets, which will go nicely with 1/48 scale kits or Empress' own 1/50 scale vehicles but my poor old Mongrels and the Eureka Aden brits will feel quite intimidated. The SLR is 2-3mm longer on the Empress fig too.
Probably best to wait for the Empress Soviets to fight them, although Under Fire Miniatures Russians may work. I don't have any to compare.
