Received a 'wrong' package of Fantassin figures from a UK supplier - infantry in Shakos with oilskins. Decided to use them for the 1817 Battle of Chacabuco as Cazadores de Los Andes. I bought a battalion pack with came with three different styles of infantry. looking at the pic it's quite obvious that the men are of different heights, which I quite like. I think I can also use these for the Battle of Maipo.
The uniforms are meant to be a lighter blue than the usual French / Prussian Blue. This was achieved, perversely, by using AV Dark Prusia Blue (their spelling ) and Prussian Blue.
