Unboxing The Wargaming Company's new Napoleonic Starter Sets

I was super excited when my pre-order arrived from The Wargaming Company. I picked up one of each of their new starters for Et Sans Resultat (one French, one Russian). These kits contain a boatload of 10mm miniatures, with approximately 240 infantry models, 4-6 cannon, 12-16 cavalry and various officers, wagons and sappers. For my basing conventions, this comes out to about 3 full regiments of 3 battalions of infantry and 6-8 squadrons of cavalry, which is a huge value for $99 a box. You also get unit cards, a reference sheet, bases and tokens for ESR, a ton of flags, and a random leader card, which was really fun (I got Dokhturov and Lefebvre). I think these are ideal for anyone looking to quickly bulk out an infantry-heavy corps. The miniatures are gorgeous (see the last post for more detailed pictures of some pre-production models) and extremely durable, and they're so detailed that they really paint up well/easily.  Below are some photos.
