Very tempting.

I'd like to see some pics of painted Zulus, especially alongside Empress, Redoubt, Foundry and Black Tree equivalents, to see how they match up. Your ACW figures seem to match up well to the Perry plastics, but a larger pic would be more informative.

On a totally off-topic tangent, the Witches are excellent (especially the painted trio) and would certainly come in useful! The "toad in a fez" is wonderfully bizarre and highly desirable too  :D

From When newline would ahve had these I had their Persians which were a good match for the old Foundry/Perry range of figures so should fit quite well with Empress if they are similar.

Redoubt and Black tree are big lads against any range.

Thanks, my existing figures are mostly Foundry, so that's hopefully good news!

Just curious if anyone got a sample and how they compared to other Zulu ranges.  A comparison picture would be great!
