A bit of thread necromancy.

But I was wondering about the Dahomey women. Any news?

With Tonkin doing well and a new Vietnam range coming out I think it will be a while before we see much of this range.

I hope if they continue with this range they do a Alfred-Amedee Dodds (1842-1922) figure,A mixed race French Colonel/General.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred-Am%C3%A9d%C3%A9e_Dodds

Did the French uniforms change that much from the 1880's to the 1890's? I know they did after 1900. The ones that I've seen in photos seem more fancy in the 1880's, more practical in the 90's. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I just discovered your potential Dahomey range. Please take your time, I'm trying  to recover from my Tonkin order . But... Dahomey!!! not too long either!
 On the cultural subject that was heating here some time ago, I would like to add one small comment: we obviously are from different opinions, very different and quite opposed, but nevertheless do share a common passion. Gentlemen (and ladies?) let's consider how rare this is nowadays. And it's not going to change for some time worldwide. Therefore, although I have my own opinion on the points discussed about, I'll let them out and be happy to exchange with anyone interested. I once discovered that a colleague was also a wargamer at work: someone observing our discussion told us that we were a kind of Free Masonry! He was right. In sweet madness we are brothers.

Ged,
With the success of the Tonkin range and the new Battle of Hue range coming out are these ranges going to be pushed back for awhile?Not complaining but just would like to know if you have a timeline for these.

Mark
million dollar question..not pushed back ..just need to devote some
time...I know what needs to be done....Tonkin will be added to and
Dahomey will dovetail into that period..in a fashion.
