Frontline Figures has just re-released their Zulu War figures in a remastered Matt finish. The picture to the left shows WZW1, a depiction of 2 Zulu Warriors attacking 2 24th Regiment Soldiers. The Zulu Wars consisted of many bloody battles, which ultimately led to the end of Zulu Independace. One of the most famous battles was the defense of Rorke's Drift, a missionary on the South Africa border. The battle of Rorke's Drift lasted 10 hours in Jan 1879. In the battle, 139 British troops fended off over 5000 Zulu warriors, injuring and killing many.
William Brittian and Conte Collectibles have both recently also released fabulous Zulu War pieces. W. Brittian pieces were released in March and Conte's pieces will be available early this summer. Both sets will compliment the Frontline Figures collection nicely. We look forward to bringing all the collections to our website in the coming months. This piece and many others will be available at www.BgsToySoldiers.com this upcoming weekend.
