wow, the box art for tankers is really cool, like the driver's facial expression.

Master Box, as much as I love 1/35 you have to do the Cavalry in 1/32 scale also......you are missing a big niche in the market as there are no other manufacturers doing multipose plastic civil war figures in either scales. Dragon started years ago with the Union infantry in 1/32 and never released their Rebels!!!! Love them and please keep the civil war figures coming. JC.

I'm in trouble with the other half now. Finally, the calvalry has arrived. Been waiting since they announced it back hum, when. I see a few of them charging over to my work bench now, dust on the horizon. YEHAAA! Thanks for the info Darren.

Im guessing at least 2 boxes for me as well. 3 charging cavalry doesn´t look near as cool as 6 would.
I have 2 sets of the Dragon Union soldiers, and I agree its better to keep historic sets to 54mm scale, so common accesories for this era are easier to come by.

Yup, agree with you there Frank, I just ordered my 2 sets and am thinking about another too. I used up my Union infantry sets for a wall clock for my sister and wish I could find a few more now. You really need more than just 3 charging. I'm still trying to find another set of Zvesdas cossacks to finish that one, total of 10 charging cossacks out of the woods on a small base. Crowded, but the effect will be there. I plan on the 6 troopers charging over a knoll with tall prarrie grass. Hoping for the same affect with these new ones.

That driver's expression is either grim determination or "I shouldn't have had that third bowl of chili..."
I like the poses, either way, and yeah, new Civil War releases? Yes please, but just don't forget the other side

Bob the Italeri Cossacks are the same product as the Zvezda offering except there are only 2 in a pack.

Maybe if these kits sell fairly well...other manufacturers...who are running out of WWII ideas will start producing some of these ACW or Revolutionary, Napoleonic, or even...dare I say....WWI figure sets...and the accessories to go with them.
I think this is very good news!!!!!!

Great news! Let's hope this is just the beginning of a great series of figures from MB. Then we can hope that the rest of the plastic manufacturers all jump on the band wagon; come on guys, lots of room on board!!
