Condition:
*Small figure is in excellent condition, evincing no noted nicks, chips, cracks, breaks or repairs.
*Larger figure exhibits a repair to the item that he is holding on his lap (when viewing the front side of the statue, the repair is located at the far left - see photo close-up). On the same section of this item, there is a surface graze in the composite material. He also evinces a very slight, minimally noticeable nick in the edge of the raised decorative whiter spot on his left shoulder (it can be felt more readily than it can be seen, it is so nominally visible). Lastly, the top left tip of his hairdo as well as the very tip of his nose exhibit a tiny loss of the top layer of composite material, allowing the next layer beneath to nominally show through OLD (pre-09/27/10):
