Britain's Zulu War (3 Viewers)

[The Lt.]

Is that camera expensive? The Conte Zulus are available?

Last time I checked on the price of my camera on the web it was priced a little over a $100.00 which was a while ago. If your asking about the new Conte Metal Zulus they're due mid to late Sept. KV. now back to playtime......The Lt.

KV, I think he means he has added some repainted Conte plastic Zulus to those referenced photos

Another dated photo taken as the Zulu Warriors launch one of many attacks against the Hospital at the Mission Station at Rorkes Drift on the 22nd of January 1879.

This era of military history is by no means something I have alot of knowledge of so don't laugh when I ask why in the movie "Zulu" do the Brits have White Pith helmets (I hope thats what there called) but the Britains figures have Tan pith helmets.

Can't wait to see the new Britains real estate that I KNOW you've got coming, Joe...plus interior furniture. I'm anxiously awaiting more great pictures . Mike

I believe that the soldiers rubbed tea or other materials on the helmets to turn them brown, so they would not standout as much.

Thanks for answering my question. That makes sense now.
