Now this is a totally unanticipated wonderful surprise! I sure hope these Legionnaires are of the Beau Geste era (1906).
I still remember like yesterday going to the 1966 Beau Geste movie with my best friend Jimmy, then walking one block to the hobby shop and buying the Airfix Fort Sahara. Ah, to be 11 again!
My Fort Zinderneuf has long been abandoned since my original garrison all died like heros defending it, as would be expected, under the leadership of Sgt. Dajineau. And how many Legionnaires fell from the Tower of Death?
If these are them, I would hope to see 2 or 3 poses without the famous Capote coat, and simply wearing the white trousers and pull-over shiirt as if they had to run to the walls in a hurry.
Light Blue Color like your Crimean War 052 Turkish Army would look great too to show off all of your outstanding details.
Thank you for the Teaser pictures. They really are Teasers!
This is exciting stuff ! Maybe the start of a comprehensive French Colonial range ?
Thank you Strelets. Look forward to seeing more figures like these.

Speaking of French colonial; France's Senegalese shock-troops (some armed with machetes) could extend the Strelets WWI range too...
