    I used to play a lot with Playmobil when I was child (while most of other children in Italy used to play with Lego) and I once received, from my beloved Granpa, a box set of british soldiers, I don't remember now my excact age (9-10 years old ?) but that box was my first step to "napoleonics mania" which still addicts me

    That's not french artillery, that is british. The 4th is a French soldier from Marine de la Garde, then French Sapper. Last are... well, Bavarian grenadier if I remember correctly, and of course russian Pavlov Grenadier.

    EDIT: I just noticed the gorget on the bavarian soldier, must be a captain.
