Title: Napoleon's Retreat from Russia 1812 Figures
Post by: John Hoffmann on April 16, 2026, 12:46:24 PM

Hello all,I'm looking for some additional figures of the French retreat from Russia, 1812. I have some figures from the huge Scholtz set.I'm looking for Ney in his iconic "defiant pose" defending the rearguard, and also would like some abandoned wagons and artillery.I have not see any of these in the Scholtz set, but I have seen the figure of Ney.I cannot remember where I saw him.Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.Thanks!

This indeed an amazing set of figures.  There some wagons from the old Fechner series which may provide some help https://www.intflatfigures.org/index.php?topic=5742.0 (https://www.intflatfigures.org/index.php?topic=5742.0)

Thanks Mark. You always seem to know the answers. everytime.I can't find the Fechner catalogue. Would you know which editor might have these wagons?

Marshall Ney in coat with gun in russia is a figure by Mignot. Not so easy to get. But there is a little set "Der letzte Schuss in Russland" by Erhardt Strassburg in Leipzig. It shows Ney and 2 or 3 soldiers into the retreat.
