Hand Painted Wooden Military Soldier Figurine, Folk Art, Konstantin Glinterntik For Sale

The complete figurine confirms it is a vintage Soviet-era folk art collectible designed by the prominent graphic and toy artist Konstantin Glinterntik (1929–2007).This figure belongs to his acclaimed \"Glory to Russian Weapons\" (Слава русскому оружию) series, which was designed in the 1970s and 1980s. Each stylized soldier in the collection features a signature lathe-turned bowling pin shape, moving bead-and-wire pendulum arms, and hand-painted uniform details specific to a historical Russian military unit.
Estimated Market Value
Given the excellent condition of the paint and the fact that both delicate wire arms and staff weapons are intact, the estimated collector value for this single piece is $75 to $125 USD (roughly 7,000 to 11,000 Russian Rubles).
While common tourist souvenirs from the era typically sell for less, original Glinterntik-designed historical figures command a higher premium among folk art and vintage toy enthusiasts. A complete set of these soldiers can fetch several hundred dollars.
