Perry Miniatures Zulu command

[Mike1879]

Recently released the much awaited Zulu command figures !! Very nice they are too !! But who do they depict ??

I think the one on the horse might be Dabulamanzi kaMpande. 

[Mike1879]

According to Michael Perry the mounted Zulu wasn’t based on Dabulamanzi but he can see the resemblance!! So I guess they are generic and can be used for whoever you fancy or want them to be. Personally the mounted figure could be Dabulamanzi or even Cetshwayo himself !!!!

There is a pretty well-known picture of Dabulamanzi sitting on a horse with his right (I think) arm in exactly the same position as this figure.  A google search will bring it up.  Regardless of who they might or might not be, the figures are really fantastic.

These are great, perfect to command my Death in the Dark Continent Zulu Army.
