I presume this figure is meant to represent a female soldier in one of Poland's eight women's battalions that fought in the Russo-Polish War of 1919-1921, although she looks much more glamorous than any photos I've seen of those ladies. While some of "Poland's Amazons" may have worn long hair,breeches and puttees on front line duty, contemporary pictures more often show them in skirts and shoes, with shorter hair. IMHO, a 1/35 version of this figure would have been of more interest/use.

These guys really should just quit. Sorry to be so harsh but this is some of the worst sculpting I've ever seen!

Albeit I know nothing about Polish Women's Brigades I would question what appears to be the 2-3" heels as part of the uniform issue. Doesn't look very realistic.
