…which personality, either from world history, American history, or military history, would you like to have as a life-sized, historically accurate mannequin in your game room, den, "man cave", garage, etc.?

Me? It's a toss-up between Washington or Patton, the latter in the tanker's uniform he designed and proposed, and seen below.

So, how about everyone else?

I have several bits of my father USMC kit from WWII. I wouldn't mind one of him in full gear. In fact, I think it would be fun to have a couple of them in a game room or den – various uniforms from WWII or WWI.

Groovy tanker outfit! Who knew Patton was a rockin' fashion designer!

Josephine de Beauharnais, as portrayed by Jacqueline Bisset in the atrocious "Napoleon and Josephine: A Love Story".

Tough choice. Alexander? Caesar? Richard III? Nelson? Rommel? Nah…. Napoleon! (1805 edition)

Cromwell, but not out of admiration. I'd take the armor and other equipment and trash the mannequin.

American history is a subset of world history, not a seperate history which is not associated with the world (because, and this is hard to beleive sometimes, America is on the same world as the rest of the world)

On the topic – I would not want a life size and realistic mannequin of anyone in my games room.

Not much of a surprise here I 'spose:

Betty Page, but I think my wife might have a problem with that… laugh

In all honesty… I'd rather have more shelves for terrain than a 1:1 scale historical fig…

But a Han Solo in carbonite would be cool…
