jeffreyt, sounds like you've had better luck with Minifigs (via Caliver Books) than I've had.

Good news from QRF re: German East Africa.  I have sent them quite a bit of information, resources, references, and photos to use.  Continue to keep a sharp eye out for relevant releases from QRF.

Double-nickle zebra, you will be pleased to know that I advocated for both Belgians and Portuguese in what I supplied to QRF.  Of course, mine was only one voice.  I recommend all interested parties communicate their own GEA interests to QRF.  (As long as you match what I want, of course!  lol)

For all, found these images:

The German askari in white, thoughts?  Perhaps earlier than WWI, summer uniforms?  Sailors?  Nice images, regardless - if a bit oversized.  ;)

But are they suitable for German East Africa (the Eureka)?  Trying to see them on site and getting a 503 error.

They are true 15mm figures and very nice!  Won't mix with Lancashire or Old Glory, but go well with QRF and maybe Minifigs.

A recent communication with QRF revealed the designer of the East Africa figures is in temporary self-isolation so there may be some delays with releases.  So many disruptions from the Virus.

QRF have released the figures in imperial service dress, i think they are in shirts  ( apart from officers)  rather than tunics.
