As the title suggests, I'm looking for 1860s British Regulars in 15mm. Specifically looking at Maori Wars. Indian Mutiny isn't a bad substitution, but they didn't wear the sunshades in New Zealand, and I haven't found any Indian Mutiny British Regulars without the sunshades. If you have suggestions, please chime in. Thanks in advance!

Battleline Miniatures and Mick Yarrow both have a line of 15mm Maori Wars (note battleine only seems to have facebook page and email)

I believe a message from the Virtual Armchair General recently said they were also coming out with some 15mms for the Maori Wars as well – see below

"The campaign game for "The Sword And The Flame/800 Fighting Englishmen" calls for full miniatures representation of all specific uniform types of the British and Indian Armies, as well as many Colonial Auxiliaries raised in separate theaters. But the full panoply of Colonial War Games lies in the Native Powers of Abyssinia, Afghanistan/Northwest Frontier, Ashantiland, Ansar/Dervish, Boer Republics (1881), Burmese (3rd Burma War), Egypt, Imperial China, The Maori, Naga (Northeast Frontier), and Zululand."

Hope that helps
