I hate saying this but i reckon A. Larrucia's recent figures are not as good as his earlier work which was stunning.I'm always interested in Adriano's figures as he has to be one of the top sculptors in the hobby,but just recently i've noticed a definite decline (in my opinion).I've also noticed that Soldiers or SGF is not up to the mark in their figures.
I would, in the past, buy any figure sight unseen by Adriano.
Is it just me or has anybody else noticed the difference?

Hello Brian, I think this is a great piece of Laruccia
and the painter Marco Lucchetti have done a good work
it is possible that a sculptor cannot have same level in every productions but
for Laruccia I think is not this occasion to receive negative observation, I allow other pictures of this work
Ciao

I tend to agree with Brian, this is not as good a figure as Mr. Laruccia has produced before.
He has produced some wonderful figures but I dont think this is one of them.
I also dont see where you can say that Brian should not offer his opinion on a figure he does not really like, I thought that was the reason for you offering the figure to a forum so that members can voice their opinion

Just ordered this one, i must say hats of to larrucia for doing such an obscure period. Look at the way the mail conforms to the muscle's of the wearer. hardy
