This is the festive prelit soldier who keeps watch over a home’s holiday spirit like The Queen’s Guard outside Buckingham Palace. The Christmas guardsman stands within a 6'-high sentry post, sporting a tall bearskin cap and a poinsettia-red tunic, much like the uniform of Her Majesty’s royal regiment, with shoulders (and epaulettes) straight, hands at his sides, and a cheery smile that welcomes the merry and brightens the mood of the most stubborn humbug. Forged from powder-coated steel that withstands the elements to ensure years of seasonal outdoor display, both the soldier and his post are prelit with 57 mini lights that help illuminate his view and add festive decor to doorways, landings, or porches with either steady or flashing settings using the built-in timer that turns the lights on for six hours and off for 18 hours. Requires three AA batteries (required). Some assembly required. 72" H x 25" W x 8 1/2" D. (31 lbs.)
