From MichaelA: Everything stops for tea! (25 Points)

Just the briefest of posts today as I see to have run out of time with regards to all things hobby related.  That said I am happy to present this collection of loosely themed miniatures in a bid to snaffle some more much needed points.  In the back of my mind, I have an inkling that the new 'Congo' rules are something that I need to have and in order to justify that purchase, I have dusted down a few bits and pieces that might be suitable. 

Various manufacturers on show, Copplestone, Dixon and Northstar, I believe, but do correct me if not the case.  I was actually quite surpassed at how many potentially suitable miniatures I already have for this departure and so who knows where this may lead?

Guest Editor PD:  Nothing like a good cuppa tea to start the day Michael.  Excellent collection of figures and I am looking forward to seeing more on this project.  I can't judge the source of these figures but the thrree that you suggest are all likely culprits, Copplestone being the odds on favourite in my eyes.  Other manufacturers that you might check out include Foundry (Darkest Africa range) and Irregular (because they do everything weird and wacky).  I do like the missionary lady, at least that's what I think of her as and the group of locals.  You're venturing into old National Geographic areas on the seated young lady but I don't think that there is need of an NSFW label yet.  The only thing that this group needs is the back story - please let us know what it is.

I concur on your original points tally and have thrown in an extra five for the books and cultural objects, that mask alone is nearly a figure's worth.
