Hello to all the collectors!
I made a scene of Columbus discovering the "New World" for the first time in 1492. What I want to express is the surprise of Taino people and the rejoicing state of Columbus and others at that time. These figures will be released in April and May 2021.
Thank you to all the collectors for your attention.

Christopher Columbus discovered the New World in 1492
On his first voyage in 1492, Columbus landed in the Bahamas at a place he called San Salvador, not Japan as planned, which was home to the Taino people. The Tainos were amazed to see strange, bearded men who covered their bodies with clothes. They thought that the Spaniards had come down from the sky.
Columbus never admitted that he had reached a continent previously unknown to Europeans, other than the East Indies, which he had set out to reach. He called the people of the continent "Indias." (Indias, Spanish speaking Indians. ) Until his death in 1506, he thought he had reached India.
In three subsequent voyages, Columbus reached the Greater Antilles, the Lesser Antilles, Venezuela on the Caribbean coast, and Central America, which he declared to be the dominions of the Spanish Empire.
