"The outstanding modeller from the Province of Neuquén, our friend César Paz, has designed, manufactured and painted figures of troops from the Argentine Confederation and the unitary armies, which he has called "Blues and Reds". Like his collection of Napoleonic figures, the sculpture is simple, but that same simplicity gives them great elegance and a unique style. César has made infantrymen, artillerymen, horsemen, horses and cannons. These figures are also endowed with great dynamism and as one fan once said "they are figures that demand to be played with." César has been kind enough to allow me to publish these photos, which are here for the consideration of the fans."

"The timeline of the war between the Unitarios and Federales in Argentina includes the following key events: 1820
Estanislao López and Francisco Ramírez, two caudillos from the interior, gain the upper hand over Buenos Aires, marking the start of the period of provincial autonomies.
1826–1827
The first civil war between the Unitarios and Federales in the interior takes place during the war in Brazil. The commanders of the two parties were Gregorio Aráoz de Lamadrid for the Unitarios and Facundo Quiroga for the Federales.
1828–1831
Some of the most important battles of the war include:
Navarro: Victory for the Unitarios on December 9, 1828
Las Palmitas: Victory for the Unitarios on February 17, 1829
Las Vizcacheras: Victory for the Federales on March 28, 1829

1840 – 1852
