The Hussar Cry

I've been busy preparing a unit of 7YW Russian hussars. Basically I used the old Revell Prussian hussars. The riders are quite ok in my humble opinion, the horses however I find a bit too skinny. I decided to give the Revell riders new mounts. The horses I use now come from Zvezda's Napoleonic Russian Hussars.
I haven't made up my mind yet which historical unit I want my horsemen to represent. Some Russian units carried headgear just as the Revell Prussian hussar but others wore a more busby like style. This could mean I have to swap heads. In that case I will give the riders a new head coming from the old Esci British light dragoonsI will sleep on it a little longer, so no cries here.
