AF12 Ngoni - Zebra Mane Headdress - spears and shields separate, 29-30mm base to eye, advancing. The headdress is wonderful, nicely detailed.

AF14 Ngoni female archers - 27mm base to eye, body size is slight compared with men, bare breasts, no quivers all different poses and faces. Quite nice figures, would want to shoot a bow bare-chested as these are, gotta hurt.

AF15 Somali Spearmen 1 - 29mm base to eye, one advancing, four throwing spear, very nice variety in costume hair and pose. Where's Burton and Speke when you want them attacked. Limited Edition 2 Watuta Chief - Great defiant pose, look out for that knobkerrie!

All these figures are typically Copplestone masterpieces of sculpting, not a sour one in the bunch. The poses, faces, costume are so well detailed these are gems. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
