"Colonial Figures 15mm" Topic

I was looking at Minifigs. Are they still in business? I was looking at their Colonial British line, Boers, Zulus, Hosas, and possible their FFL, Tuaregs and Bedouins. If they're not still around, who else offers fairly complete lines for South Africa colonial period?

Caliver Books do them (though not easy to find on their web site) link

Stone Mountain in the USA makes many of the 15mm Colonials that you are looking for.

Peter Pig also makes them, and they are gems (IMO). Might have to wait for the tarriff/postage issues to settle down before ordering.

The Blue Moon 15mm range (actually 17-18mm) is one of the best around in that scale. 30 infantry or 15 cavalry per pack for a pretty decent price and if you join the Old Glory Army ($50 a year) you get 40% off the final price. They have British for the 1879-1898 time period as well as Pathans, Dervishes, and Zulus. I would think at some point they'll probably do Boers.

Old Glory 15s/19th Century Miniatures.

Forget about ordering anything from overseas until this tariff stuff gets figured out.

"The Sun Never Sets" will be the largest and most thorough ranges of 15mm Colonials ever, and each will be complete upon release--no hoping we'll add the items you still need to complete a collection.

No brag. Just fact.
