Wow. Very interesting. Very different.
The dude with the blowpipe reminds me of Chinese jingal gunners. He needs a guy in front to balance the end on his shoulder. Gringo40s reminds me a little of Conquest figures. They had ambitions to produce figures for just about every American Indian tribe. I seem to remember the subtitle of the range as "500 Nations". Then Warlord acquired the range, and new releases stopped. 🤷 Gringo40s seems to have picked up the torch for diverse Indian ranges. Apache, Comanche, and now Cherokee. Keep up the good work! |

I love to see a very good manufacturer get away from the Early Imperial Roman, or 1815 British Napoleonics drudgery.
This is what should be done. Check out his Maximilian in Mexico range for something different.
It's like Perry deciding that SOMEONE needs to make Carlists or Koreans. Or Volunteers of Ireland. Might as well be them. |

That is great news on the Early Cherokees and they look good. I miss that "500 Nations" range that Conquest did which are my favorite Woodland Indians for FIW/AWI/Northwest War. |

It is refreshing to see someone make figures for a neglected period of history. |

thank you John the OFM..Berzerker73,,79thPA
appreciate the kind comments..the Cherokees
are a fascinating tribe and these fellows are
in summer gear..winter gear with a multitude
of furs..shells..beads..the transformation
to creek/Seminole style clothing is also
of consumIng interest to me…using the blowpipe
they wore masks like the animals they hunted..
their own alphabet..close friendship with Texas
folk..even a portion escaped the trail of tears
and i believe the largest tribe today in the USA
this is the first release !
