Available now is a fantastic centerpiece for your Black Powder collection — Napoleon's Berlin Carriage.
The kit includes Old Boney himself (although not the running-away version John Stallard wanted…), his Chasseurs de la Garde bodyguard, as well as the four-horse coach with coachman and two riders. Looking on from the front of the coach is Napeoleon's 'Mameluke' servant, Roustan. The carriage was built for Napoleon's Russian Campaign, but was captured by the Prussians at the Battle of Waterloo (while the Emperor departed on horseback).
