ACW Confederate Cavalry (1 Viewer)

Guys

I am tempted to buy a set of the ACW Confederate Cavalry (6 mounted figures, CW 40-47, and try to find the 2 retired CW 43,44).

Before 2003 I only have the Parade figures (Royal Hong Kong Regiment (glossy), Blackwatch and Royal Marines) which discontinued.

Starting from 2003 I have limited myself to collect ONLY Berlin 1938, Napoleonics and Imperial China... then in 2007 the Desert Tiger caught my attention and then I collected all DAK and EA... then the Aussies Lighthorsemen... then RAF and Luftwaffe... then K&C UK Crimea war and then WWI Germans and the Albatros plane...

Any reason why I should not buy the ACW Cavalry? (other than my wallet is gonna be empty and running out of display space)

The nice thing about this set is the non-regulatory items/uniforms, so each member of the cavalry is slightly different.

Also, I collect napoleonics... I have every Brit and French Cavalry set that K&C ever produced. All these sets were CHARGING (except for a few of the red lancers, in uninspiring idle poses).

However, this Confederates have realistic and creative non-fighting poses

They are not OVER-Exaggerated compared with Collector's showcase.

Great set

BTW, I have picked up the retired CW43 and 44 (last ones) from the shop on display.
