We are a long time in releasing these but got there in the end. These guys represent members of HMS Boudicea in their traditional sailor caps.

Will have to get some. They remind me of the bloke on a packet of players cigarettes ( what my Dad used to smoke, many moons ago ).

Excellent!

Paul, would these uniforms be appropriate for the Pearl and Shannon brigades in Central India during the Mutiny?

I'm sure Mike will have the answer, but I suspect I'll be using them for exactly that anyway :-)

Are they separate head? and does this mean we might eventually see that long ago promised pack of commissary officers?

All in all lovely stuff, the second officer drawing his sowrd is superb!

Cracking sculpts

Will these be suitable up to the late 1860's?

cheers

No uniforms and weapons wrong. Check out our Royal Navy packs in the Maori range as they would be.

The rifle is wrong for that period. Again I suggest you check out our Maori War RN packs.

Doh! That'll teach me to read what you wrote more carefully before posting! Somehow I read 'AZW' as ' NZW' and didn't look closely enough at the photos.

Which, if anything, makes them even more usable, as I've got a few Zulus to take them on.

The following link is useful for reference material on the naval brigades in the AZW:

These are beauties. It must have taken a bit of getting used to, having to fire a weapon that has a dirty great cutlass attached to the end of it.

Love the figures.
Empress and Iron Duke will be getting lots of my money soon.
Maybe I can sell my first born son, only slightly used.
