Title: Napoleon
Post by: Giorginetto on January 01, 2016, 07:30:48
I have  been trying to find a Playmo Napoleon for ages !!! I didnt want to buy one off ebay but rather find and have bought no less than 10 bags looking for him . Early in 2016 i opened a couple of bags I had and found one !!!! A grand klicky ( i want more of course  :lol:) not sure about the sword but no complaints . And here he is amongst some period silverware  which i think suits this klicky really :lol:

Well done, congratulations! It is one fine figure. And I very much like the setting - nice collection!

I have bought no less than 10 bags looking for him . Early in 2016 i opened a couple of bags I had and found one !!!!

That's the spirit! I cannot have been that hard to detect the right bag in the shop. Did you try? Any good catches among the other 9?

It is great responding to the famous Giorginetto. :wave: Your posts have been inspirational, your purchase history legendary. Puts everything in perspective. Happy new year!

Napoleon (5'7") was above average height for men at the time. Hitler (5'8"), the other man people like to pass off as short, was also of above average height.
The current French president Hollande is about the same size as Napoleon.
I didn't realise that Cameron (same height as Obama - 6'1") was so tall nor that Sarkozy (5'5") was so short.

Oh, thanks

I guess my opinion came from a childhood film, time bandits. Darn stereotypes getting in the way of facts

Thanks for facts
