"Looking for 28mm Emirs, Sultans, Rajahs..." Topic

I am need of some Persian/Turko/Arab/Indian Royalty for the Rajahs court. I also need servants as well.

I know Perry have some useful bit in their Crusades range and Eureka have some Turks. Anything else out there?

With the Perry ranges, check out the Mahdist ranges from the Sudan, in addition to their Crusades range.

There is a (relatively) new company called Indus Miniatures that may have some useful miniatures:

And Wargames Foundry has some Indian nobility in their Colonial ranges:

There are a few Potentate types in the Essex catalogue. I am afraid I cannot remember which range but I picked up a few for my ImagiNations more Orientalist nobles.

Reaper has several: Aziz Al-Jawar, Omar Al-Kafour, Genie Binder, Cleric of Ishnar, maybe even the Katepesh Merchant. lots of other appropriate Arabian minis, too.

Thanks for all the info…yes in am familiar with Indus miniatures. I run it..:)

Probably should have stated that.

Black Tree design has some excellent figures in their fantasy range. Exactly what you want, IMHO.

Here are some examples of Indian & Persian costume over the centuries:
Siyavash is Pulled from His Bed and Killed, Sultanate of Delhi, 1450
Akbar receiving Sayyed Beg, ambassador of Shah Tahmasp I of Iran, at Agra the imperial capital, 1562, from the Akbarnama, 1590s
Akbar greeting Rajput rulers and other nobles at court, 1577, from the Akbarnama, 1590s
Jahangir receives Prince Khurram on his return from the Deccan (10 October 1617), Padshahnama, 1636
Shah 'Abbas, Khan 'Alam and a page, late 1600s
Murshid Quli Khan holding Durbar by the Bhagirathi River, c1720
Begum Samru's Household, 1820

Steve Barber's Arabian Nights might be good. Mega Minis had a great Arabian Nights pack, but I believe Mega Minis are out of business, and I don't know if anyone is now producing those figures. Eureka also has their harem set, but I haven't looked at it for awhile so I can't remember what figures it includes.

Eureka Miniatures here in Australia have released a 28mm Saladin and entourage that looks pretty good.
