Italeri 6095 - 1/72 Coldstream Guards, Battle of Waterloo

The Italeri 6095 1/72 kit recreates a significant British infantry unit from the Napoleonic Wars. This set models the 2nd Regiment Coldstream Guards and their role at Hougoumont during the Battle of Waterloo, where disciplined ranks held ground against cavalry assaults led by Marshal Ney.
