Can anyone help me by suggesting a company that produces female Zulu figures. Cheers |

Frontier used to make Zulu women. |

andymac: Could be yet another middle-aged brain pfffft here but I think saw something recently about the Perrys doing some Zulus "in-process". Looked to be, early on anyway, characters, perhaps some females may in the offing? Worth watching developments. Also seems there were some of those in their original Zulu line through Foundry way back when…

Do you want historical villagers or a fantasy Zulu female regiment? |

The figure is for a friends daughter, they attended the Rorkes Drift Bikers funraiser over the weekend and was made an offical Zulu Warrior. I want to do her a figure as a keep sake. |

See the Foundry Darkest Africa line -- Fearsome War Chiefs – DA061. The bottom left figure is definitely a female. You'd probably have to give her a greenstuff or paint job top and use a Zulu style shield. I have this set and use her and the top center figure as my "king" and "queen" tribal warrior leaders. Hope this helps. Jim |

How about this Reaper figure. Remove the sword, add a Zulu shield and a shorter assegai – could be a winner.

"Fearsome War Chiefs" or "Svelte Warrior Women" from Foundry would be my choice, I think: link |

Another useful set from Foundry is DA-108 African Villagers:
The lass second from the right can easily be adorned and armed. |

Someone makes (or made) a set of female zulus from the marriage ceremony with small shields and short spears. Picked some up off ebay with a chief and such. |

Many thanks to you all, I will look at your suggestions this morning. Cheers |

Reaper has a few female Zulu inspired fantasy figs. |

Wolfhanza – I believe those small shield and short spear are Frontier. |
