I am looking at adding some buildings to my ACW collection . Was looking at 51026 Meades Hq and 51032 Lee's Hq . I realise the latter is not available at the moment but would be interested to hear opinions on 51026 please.

Regards

Steve, there a some pics on page two under the Meade's Hq thread. That should give you an idea of what it looks like with the figs.

It's a good historical depiction of the actual bldg. used by Meade. Visited there many yrs ago. Interestingly, the house used by Lee has been recently added to the battlefield park and will undergo restoration.

It's very light weight (unlike the barn which is very heavy), may be of heavy foam but good quality. Painting and weathering is excellent. Chris

I have Meade's HQ at Gettysburg by Britains too, "The Leister House". It is a great backdrop to the Union high command figures produced by Britains for the Gettysburg campaign. It is lightweight which is good because I have it displayed on a glass shelf in a cabinet. Nicely detailed piece and good value. The Leister House is more known than Lee's HQ because it was located just behind the Angle near the famous "Copse of Trees" which was the focal point of Pickett's Charge on the third day of the battle. I am very happy with my purchase!
