Are you still adding to your ACW figure collection?

Shagnasty Supporting Member of TMP25 Aug 2018 9:35 p.m. PST

Yes.

Personal logo Gungnir Supporting Member of TMP25 Aug 2018 9:36 p.m. PST

Not at the moment, but undoubtedly will.

nickinsomerset25 Aug 2018 9:41 p.m. PST

Yes, 20mm plastics for F&F. Thought I was done, but saw the "latest" Strelets stuff, and actually was slightly short for the bigger scenarios!

Tally Ho!

Old Contemptibles25 Aug 2018 9:46 p.m. PST

yes

shirleys painting25 Aug 2018 9:53 p.m. PST

My husband and his two friends are just gettig back in to ACW. They were Johnny Reb players, but now have switched to Regimental Fire&Fury, and have decided to raise new armies using the 18mm figures from BLUE MOON.

I will be doing most of the painting. Free of charge, of course…

Winston Smith25 Aug 2018 9:56 p.m. PST

Yes, both 28 and 15/18

LAP195426 Aug 2018 3:59 a.m. PST

Yes! Always adding something. Strelets have been the newest additions. Wish the 22mm Musket Miniatures was on the market. A few items from that collection I wasn't able to get. Recently added some Newline artillery crews.

Yes

Col Durnford26 Aug 2018 5:45 a.m. PST

No. I had them in plastic 1/72 with a few metal until I sold off the plastic and rebuilt in 20mm metal. Fully planned development and the first collection that I have been able to declare completed.

Dances with Clydesdales26 Aug 2018 6:18 a.m. PST

Always adding something.

DOUGKL26 Aug 2018 6:24 a.m. PST

Yes slowly but steadily.

Wackmole926 Aug 2018 6:29 a.m. PST

yes

rustymusket26 Aug 2018 6:30 a.m. PST

In fits and starts, but yes.

Doug MSC Supporting Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 6:42 a.m. PST

No. I sold mine.

steamingdave4726 Aug 2018 6:45 a.m. PST

Not currently, but plan to get more for Fire and Fury in 6mm.

torokchar Supporting Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 7:02 a.m. PST

Yes, our group in San Antonio Texas – 28mm using Regimental Fire & Fury

Ragbones26 Aug 2018 7:13 a.m. PST

Personal logo Saber6 Supporting Member of TMP Fezian26 Aug 2018 8:05 a.m. PST

I have more to paint, but I'm not (yet) buying more

Ceterman26 Aug 2018 8:40 a.m. PST

Nope.

svsavory26 Aug 2018 9:10 a.m. PST

Yes, a bit.

BrockLanders26 Aug 2018 10:26 a.m. PST

Yes, slowly. Started with 28mm metal figs (mostly Dixon) in ‘98 and add at least a few every year for Fire and Fury brigade.

BW195926 Aug 2018 10:52 a.m. PST

I still want to add the odd unit but I've got more than enough. So yes ish

Quaama26 Aug 2018 11:59 a.m. PST

Yes. Currently basing figures previously purchased and painted but lying in boxes for well over six months (due to moving late last year and then again a couple of months ago).

About to purchase more AB figures next month. Always looking on the internet for some already painted or 'ready to go'.

Personal logo Doctor X Supporting Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 12:06 p.m. PST

no

raylev326 Aug 2018 1:01 p.m. PST

15mm AND 28mm. ACW (Fire and Fury) were my first love! (Don't tell my wife.)

Blackhorse MP26 Aug 2018 1:32 p.m. PST

Yep. They're just HO plastics, but I took a liking to some of the new Strelets offerings and picked some up.

Wasn't planning on it, and don't really need them, but when has that ever stopped us. Am I right?

Personal logo ColCampbell Supporting Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 2:58 p.m. PST

Not adding at present but still have a lot of 15mm figures to paint.

Jim

John Leahy Sponsoring Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 4:09 p.m. PST

All those Strelets releases have been a boon to 1/72 scale gaming. I keep adding 10mm OldGlory figs to my other Acw figs too.

MSU John26 Aug 2018 4:19 p.m. PST

Yes, now working on the unusual stuff, like Zouaves and Cherokees.

Personal logo gamertom Supporting Member of TMP26 Aug 2018 6:11 p.m. PST

Yes in the sense that the unpainted group is slowly shrinking while the painted group is increasing. Also I can seldom pass up a good deal.

Memento Mori26 Aug 2018 6:24 p.m. PST

Of course, bigger battles need bigger number of troops

bhall38926 Aug 2018 8:17 p.m. PST

Yes, and now in 2 scales…

SAMURAIFREDDY27 Aug 2018 1:21 a.m. PST

Of course….I model in 28mm and there's been a recent growth of new miniatures small Kickstarter ranges , specific for theaters and units, besides the classis ranges, that are fueling my interest to model these unit too…

Pictors Studio27 Aug 2018 1:49 a.m. PST

No. I have everything I need for the battles I game in 1:1 scale so don't need anything else.

The Wargames Room27 Aug 2018 3:31 a.m. PST

Yes, in 6mm. Another batch of troops completed and more planned.

GROSSMAN27 Aug 2018 5:31 a.m. PST

No, I have 1,000 painted figures can't fit them all on a 6'x8' table.

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP27 Aug 2018 6:37 a.m. PST

Oh … I thought this was going to be about reenactors.

Leopold of Albany27 Aug 2018 12:03 p.m. PST

Yes. I can't help myself. I have all of 3rd, 5th, and 6th Corps AOP, and Whiting, Longstreet, Magruder, AP Hill, and Huger for the Seven Days, 15mm based for Johnny Reb III

d effinger27 Aug 2018 8:04 p.m. PST

bobm195928 Aug 2018 4:31 a.m. PST
