Hi Traveller - they were from one of the packs in the Gothic horror: zombie line. Also in the pack  were a catholic priest and a Don/Lord/etc type with a flintlock elephant gun. The pack isn't on their site anymore, it was GHZ0006, although I can't remember what tio was called

Might want to rent this 1964 movie "The 7th Dawn" staring Susannah York and Cupucine for some inspiration. It's set in the guerilla warfare in Malaysia post WW2. Not sure how much it has of post 1945 natives, but the movie is highly recommended by a Vietnam veteran friend of mine. Here is a youtube clip that is a slideshow of stills from the movie:

Warrenbruhn : The 7th Dawn looks fairly interesting, I will have to find it somewhere.  As to the Sandinista from Brigade they are really nice figs but they look more like cowboys in ten gallon hats than natives.
Traveller : please tells us what you find out about that Westwind pack.

Response from West Wind:

Thanks for your enquiry & the pic.
The blue denimed sword waver on the left is certainly one of ours. As you say, he is one of GHZ006 which is a pack of 4 figs & is available as priced as the other packs in the GHZ series detailed on our web site. Thanks for bringing that to our attention - we werent aware that GHZ006 was missing from the website! We'll see if our webmasters can address that.
We aren't sure where the other guys originate but while you're on the website take a look at our Amazonian sets which have similar figures. Their reference is GHA004 etc.
 
Hope this helps & happy hunting : )
 
Assuring you of our best attention at all times,

Thinking about it, the chap in the vest didn't have a machete when he came - I presumed he was a mis-cast, and replaced it. That might be what threw them on him.
