“Zulu uThulwana Regiment Charging with Knobkerrie No. 1” is a 54mm / 1:30 scale historical miniature figure depicting a warrior of the uThulwana Regiment in a dynamic attacking pose using a knobkerrie (traditional wooden club).

This type of figure is typically part of Anglo-Zulu War diorama ranges, especially those representing the Battle of Rorke's Drift and related engagements during the 1879 invasion of South Africa.

Key features:

  • Hand-painted metal miniature (54mm / 1:30 scale)
  • Charging pose, often mid-stride or lunging forward
  • Armed with knobkerrie and sometimes shield or assegai in similar figures
  • Designed for close-combat battlefield scenes and massed attack dioramas

Historical background:

  • The uThulwana were one of several regiments in the Zulu army (impi)
  • Zulu tactics emphasized speed, encirclement (the “horns of the buffalo” formation), and close-quarters combat
  • At battles like Rorke’s Drift, Zulu regiments launched repeated mass assaults against fortified British positions
