    The exciting post from yesterday as promised. This is a reissue set of the original Marx Alamo made in the 1950s, perhaps 75% reproduction. Most of the figures were made from the original Marx molds but some were missing so not all the figures are present. Plus a few others thrown in that were not a part of this set. Oddly Indians were a part of this set and the original. The reason was to get the piece count up. I would have thought adding more Mexican troops would have been better.
    The best feature here is the tin litho Alamo. The figure next to the chapel is Davy Crockett.
    I believe this is the anniversary of the third day of the Alamo siege. Tomorrow will be the battle so once again you will not want to miss that.
