I came across 4 Russian made Ninjas or Japanese fighting soldiers.
These figures are NOT in perfect shape. I found them thrown in a toolbox with a bunch of other metals.

Two have their swords broken off.

I'll put up a basic picture of each, but I have more detailed close ups.

I would like to get $ 200 for all four figures.
The paint is still good and a good repair job will bring these up to snuff.

They are for sure Chinese characters; And in the current condition I'll be shocked if they get sold for 1/3 of the asking price sorry to say.
Good luck.
 
Aero art Chinese and they need full restoration on each figure. In mint condition they bring anywhere fro 50-100 each and that is mint. These have about 40 each at least in restoration.

These figures would need to be completely stripped and repainted. Only when fully stripped will you be able to assess the depth of contamination. This process alone though would deem these figures beyond economical restoration. The surface rust damage and related degradation is so extensive that all of the hands would need to be cut off and replaced. The only source for the hands would be something fabricated by a skilled modeller. All in all one would be much better off shopping the secondary market for these figures in very good or better condition. I think one of them is on ebay now (the one with tiger headdress). These are all figures made by Russian Vityaz in the early '90's. It's a shame they weren't better cared for.
