Union Cavalry Trooper Mounted

This Union Cavalry Trooper Mounted on Trotting Horse, No.2 captures the strength and mobility of the Union mounted forces during the American Civil War. Model 31440 is a 1/30 scale single figure set in matte finish, featuring a highly detailed trooper astride a trotting horse, mid-motion and alert for orders.

Union cavalry horses were expected to meet strict standards: standing at least 15 hands tall, between 4 and 10 years of age, and free of any defects. Dark-colored geldings were preferred for their steadiness and stamina. One of the most respected cavalry mounts was the Morgan horse—valued for its composure under fire, endurance on long marches, and loyalty to its rider. These qualities made Morgans the backbone of Union cavalry operations.

This figure reflects that tradition, with the horse branded "US" on the left shoulder and the rider outfitted in standard issue dark blue cavalry uniform and light blue trousers. His gear is authentically detailed, from the saddle bags and bedroll to his carbine and saber.

Perfect for collectors of Civil War miniatures, this piece embodies the rigor, mobility, and discipline that defined the Union cavalry.
