Model: RTA139
Scale: 1/30
Finish: Matte
Manufacturer: King & Country

This distinctive single figure portrays a Mexican regimental drummer advancing during the Texas Revolution, helping to maintain formation and momentum as troops moved toward the Alamo in 1836.

Dressed in the traditional “reverse colors” of the regiment, the drummer stands out visually while performing his vital battlefield role—signaling commands and keeping cadence for advancing infantry. His steady beat would have guided soldiers forward amid the noise and confusion of battle.

The figure is sculpted in a purposeful marching pose, with finely detailed drum, uniform, and equipment that accurately reflect the appearance of Mexican forces during the campaign. The contrasting colors and realistic textures make this piece both historically authentic and visually striking.

Hand-painted in 1/30 scale with a matte finish, this King & Country figure adds character and variety to any Alamo display. It pairs especially well with marching infantry and command figures, enhancing both the realism and narrative of a battlefield scene.

A unique and eye-catching figure that highlights the essential role of musicians in 19th-century military operations.
