Re: Vote: Would you like to see the ACW set with heads separate or together with body?

Separate heads.
Pin on the bottom of the head.
Pin fits into a hole in the torso.
Head attaches to the sprue by the pin.
No glue necessary, if possible, to hold on the head.
At least 50% more heads than needed.
Heads in a variety of headgear, bare headed, Black heads, naval caps, and etc.

Thanks for asking.

None of them, thank you.

I have no need nor interest in ACW Armies of any kind and feel a big need to put you and your interests down.

Sorry.

Well and clearly said, Mike. And yes, Navy caps, and African American heads a great idea for Fort Wagner / Glory movie!

Navy caps would be perfect for the Confederate marine battalion during the Appomattox campaign. But I'm not sure HaT plan to make new heads, I suspect they go with what they have but I hope I'm mistaken..

As long as no sideways moulded faces with mouldlines running through the face of the soldiers are present, I'm fine with either option.

Separate, for all the reasons listed here, provided
- they can be used plug & play Swoppet style, or are in an easily glued plastic (all plastics glue is expensive)
- right size
- choice of heads / more heads than bodies
- no mould lines running through the face

Thanks for asking!

Not sure if it's allowed, it probably isn't but "that other company" has released images of their ACW marching..
