Title: Shaguma/Haguma/Koguma head set
Post by: rokurota on March 23, 2024, 07:23:22 PM
New release for our Boshin War range, this time a Shaguma/Haguma/Koguma head set. Originally was a private commission of Ismael Montero to Stavros Zouliatis, and through their loving care now is available for everyone. Ideal for making your own Officers of Tosa, Satsuma and Chosu. Or even a Tosa Jinshotai unit!

You're really trying to tempt me to make another big order soon, aren't you  ;)

Any chance of a set of heads with this particular jingasa style?

Tosa Jinshotai was an elite corps commanded by Itagaki Taisuke. Were distinguished by the red yak hair wigs which they wore together with their regular dark blue uniforms and equipped with Snider-Enfield breech-loading rifles.
There are no documents indicating the number of troops.
