Foundry miniature included with Congo

[Frontiersman]

Can anyone tell me who the miniature is that is included with the Congo rule book ordered from Foundry? Thanks.

Do you mean Box Set One? That is H. M. Stanley

No, I ordered the book from Foundry and they were nice enough to include what appears to be an Anglo man in a tribal skirt armed with darts or javelins. He is not in any of the current Foundry DA ranges.

I'd love to see it.  Any chance you could post a camera-phone photo?

I second that motion!

This guy:

Looks like a Foundry Mycenaean to me, maybe they mistakenly packed him instead of a Colonial figure?

Its a freebie, Foundry have done this for many a year, they wil pop a random miniature in with your order. It is a great promotion tool, once or twice i have liked a figure and looked on there site and it has lead to a new project

I bought the Congo rules from Northstar, and they also came with a freebie, a vaguely Boer-looking chap wearing jodphurs, armed with a pistol, standing with arms crossed.

I thought it was strange for Foundry to give me a miniature that wasn't part of their DA range, but his head will probably go onto an Old West or Weird war 2 conversion. Cheers for the help.

When i ordered DA stuff from them they sent me an acw dismounted cavalryman.

[Sir Rodney Ffing]

I did a bit better than that! 

With a reasonably large order last year, I got a witchdoctor. I thought that was a pretty good result, as I didn't fancy paying £12 to get seven witchdoctors 

And a Zulu figure came with some crocodiles I bought after that. 

Sadly I still haven't won the lottery though, so my luck isn't all good.

That s Foundry and their special (strange idea) about business.....
