The largest tin soldier in the world!
« on: 09 October 2017, 04:16:37 PM »
Last month I was in Hungary and visited some battlefields. (My blog report is here: )

Amazingly, I managed to miss seeing this guy:

He's the largest tin soldier in the world, a 10m high metal statue. He's on the outskirts of Pakozd, where the first battle of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 took place. (This is one of the battles for which I've created historical scenarios for "Bloody Big Battles!"). Oh well, I shall just have to go back again!
