LIMITED TO THE FIRST 250 DIRECT COLLECTOR ORDERS ONLY
|
As always, we like to say 'thank you' (with SPECIALS) to those plastic collectors who buy 'early' and direct from us as
you are the ones who help to make these sets possible. In this era of dramatically increasing oil prices--which
adversely affect EVERYTHING we do, we are doing what we can to keep prices down and the value of our playsets
high. We are proud that sets 6/7 contain ONLY Conte figures including numerous single color pewter figures which
are quite costly for us to include. NO RESIN PARTS (which are relatively inexpensive to produce while having
inherent decomposition and breakage 'issues' are included!!)
Some of the Mexicans have as many as 7 separately molded parts; and while driving our moldmaking costs up, we
now can enjoy “full-round” animation, amazing 'undercuts', almost total lack of block-out and crisp detail. I especially
draw your attention to their faces--never in plastic toy soldier history have 'expressions' like these been seen.
Thanks for your 'early' support--it is greatly appreciated and allows me to continue producing the figures we all want!
THE SPECIALS:
--- First 225 to purchase Sets 6 AND 7 at the same time will also receive specials A thru E:
--A) Chevaux De Frise (defensive spikes) in hand-painted pewter. (Approx. 3 ½” x 2” x 2”)
--B) Napoleonic 12 Pounder Cannon in hand painted pewter (ok so maybe there weren't any of these at the real
Alamo but there sure were allot of them in my Alamo set-ups as a child)
--C) ALA232-SC (5 single color Pewter figures plus terrain base in hand to hand combat) (interlocks with sets
ALA230 SC from set 6 and ALA231 SC from set 7)See website for pics of painted set ALA232 with the same poses.
The first 400 direct collectorsto purchase Sets 6 & 7 (NOT necessarily at the same time) will receive:
--(D) 32 Additional Mexicans
--(E) the opportunity to 'supersize' your Mexican Army by purchasing additional Mexicans and making Generalissimo
Santa Ana proud ...or at least arrogant enough to think he can capture the Alamo.....cuz he certainly couldn't take it
with the 300 approx. included in sets 6/7..(I've already been told by one collector that 10 of our stalwart Mexican
troops could take on 'at least a thousand' Marx Mexicans.....)
Many collectors have asked me to allow 'bulk' purchase of additional Mexicans....I've listened...These extra troops
available only to playset buyers at the following prices (a real bargain): (Choose 1) (We select the blistercards....)

PS...We're not done yet with this range...not by a Texas mile. In the works are Mexican Assault Teams with ladders,
Artillery Crews, Cavalry, and the Hand to Hand fighting figures you all have been clamoring for, as well as the North
Wall, the rest of the Long Barracks and the interior of the Chapel. We're doing this thang right and proper. This is real
Playset History in the making!
PPS...In time it is inevitable that prices will go up. It is important to note that we reserve the right to change contents
and/or pricing at any time. We will try to keep the website up to date with changes.
