I do not want to support any firm that steals other peoples skills. Is this a recast? If so I’ll not even think of buying it.

The figure looks familiar, though I cannot immediately pinpoint its source. However, it’s clear there are recasts among their other products (Seil, Pegaso, Andrea).
 
I don't recognise the figure but as Sergei says above, a lot of the others he's selling are recasts so odds are that this one is also.

I look at their other figures and spot the recast of the Le Cimier 54mm Napoleon and some Andrea samurai figures too. Pretty rough recast when compare with the original.

Its a very, very awfull recast from Pegaso's Owen Glendwyr. Stay far away from it, because the original is not so easy to paint and the heraldy is in the cast. I wonder if you can see the heraldy in the recast. I have my doubts about that.
So, save your money and buy the original.

“Planet Figure will not promote or name any recasters details by any means , members are also not to put links to listing on well known selling sites .”

Where's the logic in this exactly? People who don't mind recasts will find them on Ebay and AliExpress no matter what, but by knowing who sells recasts, legit customers know who to avoid. He just posted a screenshot, not a link.
