Two May Collect Time Peco Davy Crockett as we come to the end of the month, I have decided to do another dip into the collection. First up is a Peco Davy Crockett. Also, flea markets are starting to open up.
Two May Collect Time Figures
Flea Markets
My state is moving to open up more business. One area that is opening up is the flea markets. I was able to do one on Memorial Day. There were only forty tables, but I was able to find a few items nothing exciting. Another opened on Thursday. One of my biggest flea markets Renningers Adamstown will open Sunday. It will be interesting to see who turns up and what shows up. I will let you know.

Imex did this pose in 1/32 scale, too with their larger 1/32 artillery sets. I don’t recall if they did a separate infantry set in the larger scale, but I do remember getting their infantry figures with a gun and cannon crew.
Yes your are very correct Wayne
Is that most IMEX sets were made in HO first,this in 1995 .The 1/32 infantry set come much later and does have this pose of course
The set with this pose is the Union infantry set . As far i know and have the artillery set does not come with it from factory in HO or 1/32 version ,maybe some one mix it !?
Ironical IMEX carry these Chinese DGN made copies set as well under Billy V import trademark as well now.

Erwin, you are correct there was an infantry set in 1/32 scale. It has been a long time and you jarred my memory. But there was a larger cannon set for both the Confederate and Union that contained a gun with a sprue of figures containing both the Artillery crews and Infantry poses. I know because I bought both sets in Mobile Alabama at the Hobbytown USA sometime in 1995 or 96.
I may be wrong about the bugler figure though. I know I have him in 1/32 scale and 1/72 scale. I’d have to dig into my collection and sort through it. Right now that’s easier said than done. There were infantry figures in the artillery sets I bought. I remember thinking it odd – but neat.
I was at an Economics Seminar at USA (University of South Alabama) and set the guys up in the room I was staying in. It was one of those things that stand out in my memory.
The Bugler did come in the Infantry set. The DGN guys seem to have been pantographed up from the 25mm guys, showing less detail. They also seem to have trouble getting all the figures in the right scale. Some are way smaller than the others. No one has yet identified where DGN got the mounted poses from. I mentioned it, but the crickets drown me out. They are 4 decent poses: smaller, lacking detail, but good and unique enough that I kept them.
Great looking Bugler !
