The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is one of our first cultural pieces of folklore, given to us by writer Washington Irving. (Irving, whose friends included Clement C. Moore, also gave us the first parts to the indelible image of St. Nicholas, later expanded upon in Moore’s poem.) Children and adults alike revel at the tale told around the Halloween season. Polar Lights has captured the spirit of the legend by issuing a model kit for the Halloween season. The model shows the headless horseman rearing his black horse high in the air bearing a sword in one hand and the head of a poor, unfortunate soul in the other. The model is a polystyrene kit built in 1:8th scale. It includes some optional parts for the right hand, including an axe, sword, or jack-o-lantern. With attention to detail, the Polar Lights team has created its own legend for generations to come. But beware – if you hear the thundering clap of hooves coming up behind you, take cover! The headless horseman is riding once again! Glue and paint are required for assembly (not included). Model Kit Includes
