Eureka Rhodesian Bush War and Angloa, wow!
« on: May 01, 2012, 01:54:46 AM »
All,
      I just opened up several packs of these 28mm figures.  Simply put, they are stunning.  Well proportioned and nicely posed. Even the weapons look just right.  Nic Robson says Greys Scouts and Rhodesian African Rifles are about 6 months down the road.

Nick, firstly thanks for the suggestions re my civilians post and yes you're right!! those Eureka figures are absolutely stunning. Mine are still in Black undercoat, haven't yet summoned the courage to put some colour on as I want to do them justice ;)

My thoughts exactly, they deserve a careful paint job.  I am however a fast painter.  I've already got nine of them done in base colors, waiting to tackle the camo. I'm planning on using the Portuguese as BSAP and as dismounted Greys Scouts.

They are lovely figures. I even bought some as extra opposition for my African guerillas even though Rhodesians per se don't appeal. Couldn't resist painting one up in pink shorts and rhinestone boots. The shortie shorts are just sooooooooooooo butch.

Officially, as in are they on the website? No. But they are available and have been for some while. You just need to email Nic. This reminds me, I was meant to write the blurb for the figures but alas I forgot to prior to leaving the country. If Nic or John reads this I promise to do so, if not too late, some time in late June.

Can you point me to anywhere that has pictures and details of what is available?

Thanks
