I currently possess by Old Glory; US Rifles, highlanders in trews, frontier cavalry and infantry, several cannons and U.S. militia advancing.
Size wise they range somewhat for 25mm. Their horses are not usable for 28mm at all (being much too small). Their infantry units are sometimes the size of KD and Perry metals but other times much smaller.
For both US and British Canadian Troops they make most units. In addition they have a large selection of cannons which can be purchased separately for specific sizes (for example siege guns and 4 pounders).
Their sculpting and pose quality for the War of 1812 is amongst their best, which is still not as good as many other manufacturers but overall decent. Unless you are going with armies made of completely Knuckleduster, WG Foundry or Perry metals I cannot recommend their infantry or cavalry for 28mm. If you want to game 25mm they work. I have based mine on higher bases but it is not a great fix.
In addition to being a smaller scale there are historical accuracy problems with 2 units. Late war US infantry seem to have blanket rolls, which no units had. In addition their U.S. Light Dragoons have side plumes instead of front plumes (which is incorrect).
Customer service seems excellent though my local game shop has ordered them for me. They are the cheapest range by a fair margin, but as stated, they are good for 25mm but not for 28mm.
