Hi, looking for the most complete Zulu War line in 10/15mm. Most lines I see either lack Zulus with rifles or lack Natal Native Contingent/Horse or Frontier Light Horse, etc. Thanks |

I really like Old Glory's 10mm lines. They have Zulus with rifles, but no NNC Horse. |

Most of my collection is Old Glory 15s supplemented with some Essex figures. I'm sure there are Zulus with rifles among them but mounted troops were not key to what I was doing so I can't speak to that issue. You can see my collection in diorama form a link |

I use a mix of 10mm Newlines, Pendraken, Magister Militum, and Steve Barber. No shortage of riflemen. |

Sobieski, do the various 10mm lines mix well together? |

Seem to think the old Miniature Figurines (Minifigs) might fit your needs, but hard to find unless you order from the UK. They had Zulu with rifles and Natal Natives and mounted troops of all types. |

As above Old Glory's line is great for 15mm… here are some closeup pics from an old blog post of mine. Most of the figs are Old Glory, The British line are Essex (Although I would have used Old Glory except I found a lot of painted Essex Cheap), and the Zulu Command are a mix of Old Glory and Gladiator. The Natal Pioneers are customized from several different parts of mostly Old Glory figures. link |
