15mm French cavalry for 1940?
---
I've checked Old Glory's Command Decision, Battlefront and Peter Pig. Are there any someplace in 15mm?

Miniature Figurines aka Minifigs make some in Adrian helmet (Codes 7 & 8 WFC) in their WW1 range. Also Peter Pig do cavalry in their WW1 French range but they are in the Napoleonic style Dragoon helmet although it is covered.

Personally I don't like minifig horses so I'd opt for Ppig WW1 French Dragoons and add heads in kepi/Adrian helmet from their separate heads range! For more variety you may also be able to use other WW1 cavalry figures with head swaps!

Late War WWI French cav should do the job.

G,day , I,m collecting frenchies for 1940. Use the true north dis mtd polish cavalry Coolperfect for French cavalry. Correct uniform, also use the forged in battle mtd polish cavalry in Adrian helmet armed with sabres. For the dragons porte., use the Peter pig ww2 motorized Infantry , 25mm a/t gun. I have the above and reccomend themApprove I,m collecting units for a French cavalry battlegroup. Cheers Phil

There are five different types of French cavalry plus officer, general and bugler at http://www.irregularminiatures.co.uk/
in their 15mm 1870-1918 range.
