This is a first of a new company, Soldiers of Fortune, of a series of reviews I will be doing on PlanetFigure. This is a 11 part white metal depicting a Highlander of 1746. Sculpted by Pavel Sapotskiy and the box art painted by the talented Ruslan Vorobyov.

Conclusion:
I find this to be a beautiful 54mm figure with all parts that could be dry-fitted, fitting well. Mimimal seam lines to be filed. Highly recommended.

I don’t know if the magnification from the photo exaggerates this, but in my option the surface of the face looks really rough and somewhat pitted, especially the right side.
