I got all three Conte Civil War sets I'm trying to unload, plus some extra pewter pieces and blisters, not many blisters but three or four. QUOTE=Ragnar;632941]The website is more of a Museum of what once was!.........Conte still gets my cash though just recently spent $$$ in his Ebay shop. His...

I have some of the prototypes and they are rather pliable and hand swaps are easy to do. I tried the same thing with the red Spartans and the ball plug in broke off in the joint. I had a number of other breaks of the same sort just moving the hands around. I also had a set of silver Spartans and...

He could have been king of the plastic world, but somewhere and somehow he lost his way, whether it was promises not kept, competition, financial loss or frustration due to criticism I can't be certain. He did have a quality product and his action poses were top notch without a doubt. I'd be...

That would be his first plastic since the Spartans. Seems rather odd that he would re-run the US paratroopers at this time. From his home page you would think he had 5 or 6 projects on the fire and he come out with US paratroopers, again?

Well, I just happened to recently acquire all three Conte Civil War sets and I'd be more than happy to sell them. Yes, they are pricey though, although not as pricey as you might think.

All three Conte Civil War boxed sets, includes 3 terrain pieces, plastic, resin & pewter figures, accessories, plus extras. Message me if interested. or you require further details.

Timpo made them 4 FFl and 4 Arabs, Reamsa did Arabs, not sure about FFl. Oliver also does them both. Airfix made them in 1/72 but not 54/60mm. You already have Conte and AIP and Britians. Conte probably did the best and they were a true 54mm, at least in my opinion they were the best. They...

I was there since Thursday, I thought the room trading was very slow and light. I expected heavy crowds based on past years on Friday and Saturday, but they came and went with light traffic. I thought the Sunday attendance was about normal, I went out to check the crowd about 9:45 and they were...

I think they will be Alamo for sure.

Great paint jobs!!

Two of the poses are virtually identical to the Timpo Foreign Legions poses, the guy standing firing and the bayonetting guy.

I drive by it everyday. I'll be there Thursday morning dull and early.

I will be your neighbor again this year with a refrigerator full of Stella Artois, stop by, spend all your money and have a beer

Well cut to the chase and just call you Che.
