The Civil War figures look decent. The soldier looks to represent the 41st NY, which had a lot of Geman immigrants in the Regiment. The cartridge boxes look a little large, but all in all not too bad. look the link to a photo of the unit. Note the cartridge boxes that can be clearly seen on some of the men.~Gary

I agree with you Gary, the cpl does look like the 41st NY, though change the cartridge boxes, and he could be almost any NY'er. I gotta say I like the poses, and sculpting. These have got to the best EVD offerings IHMO

I, too, like the poses and the scuplting, nicely animated, great faces. One thing for sure, the Corporal won't be firing by the numbers. He's also going to have a heck of a time in combat, since he won't have easy access to his cap pouch, without which his Enfield makes a nice club.

Al, for the 41st NY, the cartridge pouches are correct, if a bit large.

I stand corrected and here's the proof!
