Oooh, I REALLY like their sculpting, but I do wish they'd do regular troops instead of just generals as well.

The sets have started to appear at UK retailers. Those of you who were concerned about the color of the Union set might be interested in the following YouTube video. They seem to be Medium Blue. You can also go right to Youtube and search on Unboxing CHT013. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Fw6Dq1h8uQ |

Now that is good news - not for the ACW but because they are wearing REAL ie original French Zouave uniforms! Opens up all sorts of possibilities...

I now have them 'in the plastic' and they are very very nicely done but very very 60mm 1/30 not 54mm 1/32! Sculpting and detail is excellent, poses fine except to build units will take many may sets - only 3 figures in each are 're-usable' ie not officers, flag bearers or drummers. They are 'real' Zouaves, as I said above, proper French Zouave uniforms with serouals (sp?) ie baggy trousers (unlike HaT and AIP, which have the American style of just fuller than normal), chechias but no turbans but these can be easily added with a coil of modelling putty. The figures remind me of the Shenandoah metal set, which were the best ever done.
Maybe they will do a Confederate Zouave set, and perhaps it will have more re-usables...?
Not really sure what I will do with the set I have - I dont do ACW anymore, and have French Zouaves already, and these would dwarf them so adding some isn't really on.
Splendid figurs though - really look the part.
