One Sixth Memories - 2000 - Glory and the 54th Massachusetts

That same weekend, I used the sand parcel in my backyard to recreate the charge on Fort Wagner from the movie Glory, about the all Black 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment. Still one of my favorite movies. 

The figures were both Hasbro figures. I believe the uniforms were from the Soldiers of the World line. 

Custom Playset Box for the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment

Since I saw it, Glory has sat in my top 5 all time favorite movies. Only recently did I discover some painted metal miniatures of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, primarily by John Jenkins Miniatures.  In order to keep my current figures centralized, I reached out to an Ebay seller who makes custom playset boxes. He has his own inventory, but he did a custom Vietnam one for me a year or so ago. I asked again for a 54th box and he delivered. It is fantastic work, and I appreciate the detail and care he put into it.
