Ive been wanting to do a Rorkes drift wargame for awhile. The idea of a smaller force with superior weapons fighting a much larger force with inferior weapons is very intriguing, plus Zulu is one of my favorite war movies ever. Call to arms have done a nice job here, with just enough detail to make the figures look historically accurate, and some decent poses. They make 2 other sets of zulu that I plan on buying also to add to my zulu forces. They also make a British set. The best part about these figures are the shields, they just look awesome when painted and really add to the realism of the figure. They come separate from the figure so it makes them a little bit of a pain to attach with glue but its not a big deal. Overall great set of figures and you get 16 of them for just over 10 bucks, so for the level of quality you are getting that is a real bargain. .
