There are three distinct styles to WBritains Zulu collection; Rorkes Drift, based on the famous action. The Zulu War Osprey Series is inspired by the wonderful art of Angus McBride, featured in Osprey's Men at Arms Zulu War title while the Zulu War Gloss collection is in keeping with popular Redcoats range. W. Britain, William Britain or simply Britains have been producing toy soldiers and military miniatures since 1893 with attention to detail, quality and authenticity. Each 1/32nd scale (54mm / 2.25" tall) figure is cast from metal and hand-painted to a high standard in a style to suit the period.
