Not to dredge the waters with the tragic story behind that figure, but here are a few links and a review (with a lot of exceptional back story to the figure...) The Windrex figure is actually the only Marine figure that I own, and it's an exceptional one. I didn't even know about all of the little nods to his family on the body armor until reading the review.
