Titus, you had me going there for a second! I just got back from vacation, so when I saw a thread about the 22nd Foot, I immediatley assumed there was some news about the preorder. Just goes to show what happens when you assume.....^&grin Anyway, for what it is worth, I third your motion and...

I'm with you on this idea. A calander of pics from fellow members showing off the different ranges would be a great thing to have. To be fair, I think your idea of the FL logo should be on the front, then, pics of the different ranges spread evenly among the pages. Noah

At a minimum, Joe's photo needs to be on the First Legion site to help show off the great Roman line. Noah

Mike, I think these pics look just great. Especially the third one, where Buford is next to a couple of his men. That's my favorite. Noah

Joe, this is a great pic, but we have a lot of candidates for such a cover photo. I mean, between this, Frank's Stalingrad scenes, Mike's AWI pics, Guy's Nap dios and everything that Xavier does on his blog, we would have many great options!:) Noah

Once again Joe, a simply amazing diorama set up. The slightly muted color of the scene looks perfect! Also, I don't know what you used for a background, but it sure appears to have definite depth. It is a really cool effect. Noah

That is an interesting possibility and one I honestly had not thought of. My father, who teaches history here in the midwest U.S., would love it. I would have his birthday and other holidays covered for a while!^&grin Noah

I'm totally with you guys on these new AWI releases. Can't wait for the preorder! Matt, I'm not sure where the 4 new ranges=1 reveal every 3 months idea came from. You never mentioned any schedule like that, so I'm unclear as to why that is the expectation. However, you have been gracious...

I'm onboard with the idea of specials/discounts on the First Legion site. Haven't ever seen anything posted there, but like Gebhard, I check it quite often anyway.^&grin I'm certainly not onboard with the idea of a collectors club. For one, it think it could take away from the ranges...

Matt, this release is a great addition to your already extensive Napoleonic range. These figures really demonstrate First Legion's outstanding paintwork! The detail on the shako cords and sword knots caught my eye right away. There should be some happy Nap fans today! Noah

Frank, that is one very impressive collection of Samurai. Each one is so well done and the detail on them is amazing. Thanks for showing them off as you 'dust the curio'!:) Noah

Gebhard, I did notice that, and as you said, it is a help to those not real familiar with the French rank system. That would certainly be me! It seems like a small thing, but I think it is important to recognize those little details on FL's site. If someone better understands the rank system...

You and me both! That's one thing we can always count on with First Legion. They never do anything half-way. I am always impressed with the large regimental releases, which are usually about 20 figures all engaged in the same general activity. I don't like releases that feature 2-3 figures...

I know you noticed this Gebhard, but I want to bring it up anyway. The time from the preorder to the figures being in-stock was pretty short on this release. I seem to remember Matt stating a while back that he was going to drastically reduce the delay between preorder and shipment. Looks...

Xaiver, those pics are really impressive. I especially like the one of the Confederates advancing, as the washed-out color creates a really cool effect. Nice work! Noah

That is really cool! What an imaginative use of different scale items. Noah

I will just echo what others have said. This is one amazing diorama that really captures the theme. I know I would feel proud to have this displayed in my office. Noah

While this preorder is no surprise, it is certainly a much-anticipated announcement. I know there are a number of Nap collectors (including Gebhard!) who have been waiting in this release. While not a Nap collector, I am still impressed by the variety of pose and dress in this group. Little...

Yeah, I saw this in the newsletter earlier today. What a great compliment to the 55th North Carolina Regiment, with one unit advancing and one in a firing line. Just like the previous release, First Legion is doing an outstanding job with their ACW range. Noah

Xavier, we have two things in common. First, we both appreciate the excellent quality of First Legion's AWI figures. Secondly, we have the same birthday! I turned 35 yesterday, which my 6-year old daughter told me was 'a lot'.....^&grin Anyway, I hope you enjoyed your birthday. Your pics...
