Although still a bit shaken with my son's harrowing experience with choking at the end of June, I knew my solemn duty: to continue producing competitive entries in my role as Mr. X.
Italeri set 6016 clearly holds a special place in the hearts our forum members. For one thing, it seems everyone has a copy or two.
I had originally purchased the complete set in August of 2017. I had challenged Deon to a rematch after our tie in July 2017, and he suggested this figure and generously offered to ship me a single copy.
But I found it available for purchase within ready shipping distance (Waterloo 200th Anniversary Edition in light tan plastic) and it looked like a good set, so I treated myself.
It is a good thing I did, because I have now dueled with figures from this set on numerous occasions. The immediate rematch with Deon got swallowed up by life and other duties, but a year later, it was back on.
Here is a link to the duel itself:
