HRH Prince Philip, Colonel of the Grenadier Guards
It has been a long tradition in the British Army that senior members of the Royal Family are given honorary titles connected to many of the Army’s most famous regiments. Especially those regiments belonging to the Household Brigade whose first duty has always been to protect and defend the sovereign.
The Grenadier Guards have a very special relationship with the Royal Family going back over 350 years. Until 2017, the late Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh was the regiment’s Honorary Colonel since 1975: an amazing term of duty of some 42 years!
Our K&C figure of the Prince is based on an actual photo taken in 2003 at Windsor Castle. The Prince stands at ease, one arm behind his back watching a parade march past.
Released in NOVEMBER 2021.
