Webmaster's Footnote

I hope you're as thrilled with the content mix of ACW 3 as I am.  A while back, when I first started taking pictures of "The Crater", it seemed the plan was to just have the new Series 2 Confederates in gray,  a few reverse color Union Series 2 in gray, a whole bunch of Series 1 Union in blue and the 14 pewter figures.  (It was even posted on site that the Iron Brigade figures would not  be included in Playset 3). I am so glad that the decision was made to supercharge this playset with the full range of  poses available at this time, including the reverse color figures.  This is a Blockbuster of a Playset. Originally, it was slated to be a limited edition of 500.  I convinced Richard to raise the limit to 1000.  I think there are a lot of collectors out there who resisted the first two playsets who won't be able to resist this one.  It is a playset dream come true.
