This is one of Heroic Miniatures original figures and is item number 54-02. The kit is cast in white metal and comes in a sealed baggie sandwiched between foam for protection. The kit also includes a black and white color guide (see below).

Above is the upper torso and head cast in one piece. The detail to the head, hair and especially the braided hair in the back is remarkable.

Conclusion:
An excellent figure depicting the notorious Attila. Basic clean-up required to remove all the casting seams. This is the 3rd figure I have had of Atilla. The other 2 I have painted are in private collections and this is for my collection. Highly recommended.

Great review as usual Guy! I have to admit, the pose on this figure feels very awkward to me. His right hand looks far too wide as well.
