Valiant Miniature Kit# 9886 - Barbary Pirate, Tripoli, 1805. For centuries the "Barbary Corsairs" and "Sallee Rovers" were the most feared sea-wolves in the world. Their power had been intermittently challenged, as in 1805, when Lt. O'Bannon's little group of U.S. Marines played such a glorious part in the storming of the corsair lair of Derna by American and allied troops. This feat is memorialized in the "Marine Corps Hymn" ... to the shores of Tripoli ... This item is an unpainted and unassembled metal hobby kits. Standing figurines are approx. 2-1/2" - 3" tall.
Kit is recommended for ages 8+ |
