Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
Anyone with an interest in the Mahdist Wars could not have too many camels.
Thanks to HaT & Italeri, I possess quite a few but it's baggage camels I most need.
As most people appreciate, you don't fight mounted on a camel. They're infantry transport (sorted: HaT), scouting (ditto + Italeri stuff) & baggage animals.
HaT promised a set.....so hopefully Strelets might supply some. Camels with boxes (European use) & sacks (Arab use). Camels carrying dismembered screw guns. A camel with the Mahdi or Gordon on its back. Etc.
Excellent ideas Paintdog,
HaT are a little slow on the baggage camels, However, their masters are very good indeed; with removable and alternative loads.
I'm hoping Strelets will be making more WW1 sets for the Middle east arena.
And hopefully,Colonial sets including Gordon and the Mahdi.
The 19 century Afghan conflicts are not really represented in 1/72nd. More camels required there.
