Based on the visual details and accompanying information, the figure appears to represent a Senegalese Tirailleur (colonial infantryman in the French Army), likely from the World War I or World War II era.
Here’s a description of the figure:
- The minifigure has a dark brown skin tone.
- It wears a tan or khaki-colored helmet, resembling the French Adrian helmet style, which notably features a dark-colored anchor insignia printed on the front. The anchor is a traditional symbol of French colonial troops (Troupes Coloniales).
- The uniform is also tan or khaki, consisting of a tunic with printed pockets, buttons, webbing (suspenders and a belt with pouches), and yellow collar insignia.
- The legs are printed to show lighter tan shorts or upper trousers, with dark brown puttees or leggings on the lower legs. This style of uniform was common for colonial troops.
The filename includes “塞内加尔步兵” (Sāinèijiā’ěr bùbīng), which translates to “Senegalese Infantry.” This aligns perfectly with the visual evidence of a soldier from the Tirailleurs Sénégalais, who were a famous corps of colonial infantry in the French Army recruited from Senegal and other French West African colonies. They served with distinction in both World Wars. The image’s suggested content mentioning “lego ww1 harlem hellfighters” refers to an African American regiment that also fought in WWI often using French equipment, but the anchor insignia on the helmet is more directly indicative of French colonial troops.
Therefore, the character is most likely a Senegalese Tirailleur from the French colonial forces.
