What is the Conte website? A large number of my collection is Conte and it seems odd Ive never been to their website. A search on yahoo got me no where looking for it...
 
Here's another Holy Crap Batman!!!!! for you my Lord General

They do look good. SIgh it means we will have to wait untile Sept 2009 to see them I suppose if old Conte is true to form.

Conte seems to have a problem with the factory he deals with.Either they are very big and have a lot of manufacters they have contracts with or they are just very slow.

Great collection you have there Vanguard. I also like the way that you have them displayed.
 
Very nice display. I really like it. Tell me do the framed shadow box looking diplays open like a medicine cabinet?
 
Yes they do. Got them at a Crate and Barrel in Houston for 40 a piece. It was a time saver rather than working in the garage to make another wooden shelf.
 
Hi VanguardFC007,

Your collection is very nice and very well presented. I have a fondness for ACW figures and it looks like you are well on your way to building a great collection of them!

Thanks for sharing the pictures. I have enjoyed viewing them very much!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat :)
 
Well done with that collection. I recognize a lot of WB and Conte. Both companies certainly made and continue to make some great Civil War sets.
Thank you for posting your collection.
Regards
Damian
 
Hi VG

That's a darn good start to what I am sure will grow into a fine ACW collection. You have already got two or three complete sets of Britains and Conte best issues.

You also have the single foot figures of Hood and Longstreet, today if you can find these they are currently selling for anything above $85 a piece. Not bad for an issue price of less than $10. And you will be pleased to know I'm sure I haven't got either of those guys in my collection-got real close a couple of times but they always managed to escape me. So you're way ahead of me there. Well done and keep collecting as there really are some great looking figures out there.

Reb
 
Thank you Reb. Serious now, Hood and Longstreet are 85 a piece now? Thats something, I think I paid 20 to get both. If I had bought extras they would be on the market now.
