New AWI Yorktown Personalties (1 Viewer)

Does the set include von Steuben? I haven't found any reference yet to having the Baron in the catalog, and if that's so, I think it's a glaring omission. :)

WB based the set on the painting showing the Franco-American alliance by James Peale illustrated in the essay. Peale's older brother Charles did a portrait of von Steuben. Perhaps Ken will tell us if a figure is in the works.

I hope so ...i'm completing the book on him (i followed the suggestion of "our" Baron) and i find it's an all around fascinating figure..a reproduction of him addressing a soldier or swearing would be nice!
 
Thanks, Randy! Until then, my Franklin Mint figure will have to carry out the duties of the Inspector General ;)
