I have met some great collectors via the forum and at Toy Soldier Shows but Jean Marie in Corsica is one of the best.:salute:::salute:::salute::

He contacted me to say that I had helped him track down many Trophy sets by using my pictures as a reference and he knew that I had been looking for set# ZS55 – LEFT HORN OF THE BUFFALO for a considerable time therefore he was sending me the set as a gift. The set arrived this morning and to say I am “Over the moon” is a bit of an understatement as this set completes my Trophy Zulu War collection{bravo}}

Here is a quick picture of the set before I set it up with a few other Zulus
