I like it very much and Knowing the brand sure that the mounting is very good.
 
Very nice. Also, like a depiction of the younger Bonaparte whereas many of the recent figures represent the pudgy guy in the raincoat.
 
I'm having one too!:). A bit worried about that sabre though. Anybody know if there is a real source for it, or is it from artwork? It just seems a bit flamboyant and expensive for a general's pay at that time. Otherwise perfect.
 
Stunning figure!

Hi,David!For that I know this figure is historicaly accurate. Have a look at a couple of pictures attached. It shows the sabre that Bonaparte was carrying in the battle of Arcole,so during this Italian campagne :)

I love that arrogant stance, a man who knows what he is capable off and what he wants . I might have to break my own rule off not buying anything this year . This is a truly lovely figure
chippy
