Well, almost. One stirrup to do and the chainmail on the back of the legs, but otherwise.

Wow! I'm mostly impressed by the horse. The canon bones of the hind legs are a tad long but very well done otherwise. So many mini companies make horses like thay've only studied cartoon drawings of them.

What's a "the Bruce" anyway? I'm only familiar with "Bruce" as a formal name, not as an objective noun. (I know I could look it up on Wikipedia, but I'd rather hear somebody else explain it) ;)

Have you watched Braveheart, Michelle? Even though that film is hardly historically accurate, the character Robert the Bruce is a real historical person.

he watched a spider swining in a cave, and decided if the spider could make it across the cave, he could unit the scottish and overthrow english tyranny, or so the saying goes

Very cool figure!

Braveheart, historically inaccurate or not, ranks high upon my favorite films.

The first 2/3 of Braveheart are brilliant! The final 1/3... not so much.

True...Braveheart is historically incorrect...but most of the situations that involved the British over the Scots were! But I'm with the rest of you...it ranks in the top 5 of movies that deal with history for me!

That really is a beautiful model. It feels very real to me.
