Zhuge Liang @ Master Crouching Dragon

It was said by people, there are two great strategies in the era of the Three Kingdoms. One, is Pang Tong nicknamed the Fledgling Phoenix. The other would be Zhuge Liang, the Crouching Dragon styled Kong Ming. It get Liu Bei, Ruler of the Kingdom of Shu to pay three visits in order to enlist his help. Immediately he predicted that the country will be split into three. Which came true. His many credits includes the capture of Jing province, alliance with Sun Quan, Battle of Chibi, capture of Shu, Capture of Hanzhong, quelling the rebellion of Meng Huo, the seven sentinel maze and many others.

Among the greatest is the Battle of Chibi or Red Cliff. For more information watch the movie Battle of Red Cliff or read the historical books. He liased with Sun Quan in the south. Then he and Zhou Yu successfully launch a fire attack and burn Cao Cao's fleet.

He met his demised in the Battle of Wu Zhang Plains where he died of sickness. It was his final expedition against Wei. The enemy commander is the infamous Sima Yi. He had made plans even for his death. As he predicted, when Sima Yi learned of his death, he pursued with full force. But Zhuge Liang had planned an ambush and he placed a wooden figurine dressed like him on his sedan. Sima Yi thought he was trick and retreated. This allowed the Shu Army to withdraw safely.

This model here is the Gundam model for Zhuge Liang styled as a Re Gz. Its cool enough comparing to the previous model in the series Xiahou Dun. It looks better than the coming model Xiahou Yuan too. Its worth buying!!!
