Hi all
As usual I have a dumb request for information. Going through my metal mountain, I've found some old (old? Ancient!) Minifigs Napoleonics. The codes on the packs are: 1SW, 6SW and 9SW.
Been on their website and they now sell Matchlock 15mm, which use completely different codes. Does anyone know what figures had these codes?
Cheers
Ian

Minifig codes did change quite some time back (? 15 yrs.) as Napoleonic items would have ‘N’ in their prefix.
Might these be Swiss?
Tom Dye (Dealer for Minifigs) is a regular contributor at TMP (The Miniatures Page). He would certainly have an answer for you. If you are not a subscriber, I can post the question for you.
Cheers,

HI Timurilank.
They might be Swiss, but I just don't know. If I remember at all the old codes for the Napoleonics were just plain weird. I'm not a member of TMP, but don't worry about asking Tom Dye. I'll just use it as a learning experience!

Sonic, SW might be Saxons? Or does SW stand for Seven Years War? Just my initial responses to your question - no basis in fact.  ) |

According to my, c1985, Minifigs catalogue these figures are Napoleonic Westphalia/Kleve-Berg figures:
1SW = Chasseur Carabiniers (Skirmish Order)
6SW = Chasseur Carabinier Command
9SW = Line Fusiliers Command
Hope this helps!
