Yesterday we took a look at the Union soldiers offered by Billy V Toys and today it's the Confederates turn. I did a quick check of Amazon and noticed there are several more Billy V American Civil War sets, some containing cavalry, tents, canoes, cannon, and other accessories. The sculpting in these 50mm figures is nice although I noticed the rifles tend to be rather thick-ish. But they are after all toys and like the Union figures, there are 11 Confederate poses in the bag so without further ado here come the Rebs! Enjoy! Bettina & Fritz Berg :)

With his legs at such an odd angle, I wonder what the sculptors had in mind for this figure. Crawling up a hillside with one foot propped on a rock???

This is kind of an odd, awkward pose. What's he actually doing? Perhaps he's recovering his rifle from a rifle stand, or it had been leaning against a tree???
Standing yelling. Is he giving the infamous 'Rebel Yell'?
many of these are clones of old ESCI HO scale poses. a few Imex clones tossed in too.
ReplyDeleteInteresting! I wasn't even aware of the ESCI HO line - something more for me to look into. Many Thanx!
