Zouaves - 2 sets for ACW

I think Brunswick Avant Garde was the 1st set I brought , but it appears the Zouaves were the 1st set made. which is correct and can someone tell me the year of release? Included in the picture is the 2nd Zouave set which came with head swaps. Above the 2nd set of Zouaves (red bases) are painted as Turks . I was not really sure what to do with head swaps at the time, now days I feel let down if there not included.

Hi - great sets of Zouaves are these!
I have submitted many paint versions to ETS and the listings for 1/32nd.
What is good about these is the good posture and those great baggy trousers. They are true 1/32nd scale and match the Britains Deetail ACW 1971 vintage. There were loads of variations on Zouave uniform with many colour variations - I must get round to adding the turbans round the stocking cap.

You can mix the blue unpainted Zouaves with MARX Civil War, in the "ReMarx Blue" plastic.

I used the French knapsacks to make Franco Prussian War. (of course)
