Giuseppe Armani Napoleon Figure on bucking horse

By DeanRendar, 26 September, 2007
Description

This is a figure my dad bought in the late 1980s or early 1990s and I believe it is now discontinued, unfortunately there is no plaque under the base or anywhere on it identifying its name, model, serial number or anything like that. I assume it is a depiction of Napoleon or at least a French Soldier riding a white horse on its hind legs. At most it has 2 paper brochures attached by string to one of the horse legs. On the back of one however there are hand written numbers. Can anyone please help me identify this figure, its name, history, and value? Thank you very much.

History
Been kept on display on the hallway table for over a decade. I browsed the entire online Giuseppe Armani figure catalog recently, and have yet to see any of MALE soldier figures, this is a rare MASCULENE piece unlike his other works (Disney princess character figures) The horse is even anatomically correct, also a male.
