Ratch Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 The Black Prince was born Edward of Woodstock in 1330, the eldest son of Edward III. His title of Black Prince first appeared in 1569, nearly 200 years after his death (1376). In his youth Edward was created Earl of Chester, Duke of Cornwall (the first), and Prince of Wales. He won his spurs at the Battle of Crecy, defeating 30,000 French troops with just 10,000 of his own. Ten years later he succeeded again with 6,000 English defeating 20,000 French at Poitiers, capturing the French King John. http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185220.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185225.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185223.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185224.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185221.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185226.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185227.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185228.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185230.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185233.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185234.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185235.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL761/13303934/24273664/411185236.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Evans Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 These 1/12 historic figures are always very popular and it mystifies me why Aifix do not simply re issue them?Perhaps its because people are making huge sums of money selling the originals at auctions and on ebay perhaps - I dont really knowSo Please Airfix - lets re-release these golden gems?Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
