The item features a two-tone finish: the military uniform is painted olive green, while the face, hands, and beret are brick red. The figurine holds a black weapon in its arms, adopting a dynamic posture with legs spread and slightly bent, accentuating the sense of movement. The flat base, the same color as the uniform, ensures the stability of the statuette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe molding reveals stylized details: pockets, belt, tall boots, and fabric folds are clearly visible on the front. The well-proportioned arms emphasize the realistic intention sought in this type of military figurine. The surface shows a matte paint, with no marked glossy effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe face is deliberately schematic, with a well-defined chin and a prominent nose, true to the aesthetic of French toy soldiers from the 60s-70s. The bright red beret, a distinctive element, adds a touch of color that contrasts with the uniform. The weapon, painted black, is molded against the torso and arms, without apparent fine details but clearly identifiable in its general shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo inscription, logo, or reference is visible on the front of the figurine. The piece reveals a light patina and some signs of wear on the paint, attesting to its previous use and age. The contours remain sharp, with no major chips on the visible part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe photographed scene highlights the figurine placed on a wooden surface, indoors, with a blurred bookshelf background. This does not affect the description of the item but emphasizes its decorative potential in a retro environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
