DESCRIPTION: The collection is composed of mostly 54 mm figures. The other sizes are marked specially. The estimate of the painting level of the figures is based on the system introduced by Russian Vitiaz Studio in Saint-Petersburg. The mark of 3.7 is given to the lowest collectional level. Then there are also 3.8, 3.9, 3.95 marks to follow. The highest mark is 4.0. This level is called very often by manufacturing studios as "museum" level. But the real highest mark for the painters of the tin figures is 4.1. It is the case when the figure is painted with special inspiration and a painter creates a real piece of art. There are not too many such figures in the collection and they have a special marking. Usually such figures receive medals at the international exhibitions.
