Great, more flank company figures with shoulder wings.

I haven't liked the Mars sculpting for their modern and WW2 stuff, but their stiff poses seem to work well for Napoleonics.

I thought their French Old Guard were great. I have two boxes worth.

The lack of lace on the cuffs and the front of the jacket, with some modification with a craft knife (shoulder wings and shako plate) and converting (shako plate) these could be used for Portugese live infantry

For Mars figures, not too shabby.

Ah, my people! Again, I really think Mars's sculpting style works so much better for this era than the more modern/WW2 eras.

These figures look great.
How well would they fit In with Victrix (which are more like 60mm) and Expeditionary Force?
The painted Brits look really nice and the Poles look great- would they pass for Vistula Legion

Mars sets can vary, so you might want to make a small purchase first. Some early Mars sets had a reputation for being a little on the small (Airfix) side. The latest sets have gotten larger.
The Mars French Grenadiers in set 3022 are 1/32 (57mm, 2-1/4") rather than 54mm (2-1/8"). The Grenadiers are the same size as Expeditionary Force. AIP, Italeri and Timpo are about 1/8" shorter on average.
Even if there is a small difference, how likely are the Poles to be mixed in the same unit with other types from other manufacturers?
