A guide to the figures released by Eureka Miniatures for the conquest of the central and southern Americas in the 1500’s.

Figures are approximately ‘28mm’ though the Tupi for example are slightly shorter. Where a code number is listed these are the official codes, where no code number is listed, these are not yet officially released figures.

All images used are from my personal collection.

100CON12 Artillery Piece and 2 Crew

100CON13 Dog Handler and 4 dogs

The handler bears a separate spearMatchlock

Erroneously released with the wrong weapons, these were replaced later by the arquebusiers. I’d still be happy using them for later century pirate raids on Spanish towns and so on.

Sacrifice Set

Cavalry Missiles

Crossbow Arquebus

TlaxcallansThese figures have NOT been officially releasedWarriors in Quilted Armour Five casts of this confederation opposing the aztecs. The shields supplied were plain unadorned or whicker pattern. All figures wear a thigh length sleeveless padded jerkin, with loin cloth. They also have a head band from which stands three feathers. Figure 3 has a separate feathered bundle exactly the same style as the others. Figure 4 has a separate weapon arm which pins in at the shoulder and allows some variety of pose.

Xipe Priest in skin A priest dressed in the flayed skin if a sacrificial victim. The figure is in a very dynamic dynamic/advancing pose, wielding a sword in his left hand. He is cast a with a separate feather collection to his head. The figure does not come with a shield.
