The LLL 2nd Battalion is said to have had no "alamares" at all, and wore a greyish jacket with only one column of buttons - wheras the BR had 3. I hope you find these two links useful: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/1b/fd/68/1bfd68522c740ece3a8345c4f203fdb0.jpg and http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zu1x01lJ0q0/U0-BZDAsGcI/AAAAAAAADj4/ZC06uL2Fvf0/s1600/LLL.jpg Cheers!

Nowadays they are sold by their offshoot Casting Room Miniatures. You can see them here: http://www.castingroomminiatures.com/collections/napoleonic-portuguese?page=2 They are fine, and I have quite a few; however, they are a bit smaller than average (25mm, I guess), and the sculpting isn´t that crisp. I love them because they look like toys from the old days :) A matter of opinion, of course :) I had to "elevate" their basing in order to make them look taller :) I would advise the Warlord or Victrix Caçadores.
