Thought you may like to see the diorama for RD. It was built by a 17 year old boy at a local school as his annual project. He couldn't afford to buy many genuin models so he bought a couple of packs of cheap  cowboy and indian sets and set about modifying them. There are exactly 140 soldiers inside the barricade but he ran out of space for the zulus so there are only 2000 instead of the 4000. Amazing detail isnt it.
Cheers Frank.

Hi all

Yes ineed. It is the model that is on display in the Rorke's Drift Interpretation Centre (the reconstructed hospital). I believe it has been there for quite a few years.
