Ernesto Che Guevara (1928 – 1967)

Ernesto Che Guevara (14th June, 1928 – 9th October, 1967), commonly known as CHE; he was an Argentine Marxist revolutionist. He was also a physician, an author, an intellectual, a rebel leader, and military attaché theorist. He was a major and inspirational figure of the Cuban Revolution during the 50s. His stylized visage has become a well known countercultural symbol of revolution and a global icon within the sub-culture.

With his intellectual medical student background, this allowed him to travel around Latin America and experienced the endemic poverty and isolation, and it transformed him to be more involved in politics and world revolution. Following the Cuban Revolution, Guevara played a major role and performed a number of important campaigns in the new government. Additionally, he was also a creative writer and diarist. He wrote several seminal manual on guerrilla warfare and memoirs about his revolutionary journey.

Guevara left Cuba in 1965 to foment revolution abroad but he was captured by CIA-assisted Bolivian forces and executed. Guevara remains to be an important historical figure after his death; and is still an inspirational figure both in specifically political contexts or youthful rebellion. Despite his life and legacy still remain a controversial issue, his visage, especially the one of his face that was created in 1968 by Irish artist Jim Fitzpatrick, has become one of the world’s most universally merchandized and objectified images.

Must buy

[venosnaker]

definitely pass

[vectorscum]

Not too sure but love the camera for sure.

[Warge]

Gosh... A lovely figure indeed. Thankfully I have opted to NEVER buy celebs of any kind, so this is not a buy for me, but I like both the jacket and sculpt and may pcik up a couple loose.

The sculpt itself is great for a lot of bashes - shave off the beard and you have a Greek or Turk; or add more and get a taliban.

[Casual_Collector]

I'd wonder about that web belt... Looks pretty good for a 'Nam bash, but I wonder how well the color matches TS webgear.

[JokersWarPig]

It looks good, but I'll pass. I like the camera though.
I wonder why enterbay didnt make it after Benicio del Toro from the movie Che since DiD allready did the historical version

[siquisiri]

Hey! There you go. It IS a Leica. I couldn't understand why they altered Che's Nikon. Now I know.

Perfect for a bash of Robert Capa?

[LizardKing1968]

looks great BUT YIKES!! 170 bucks is too much for this especially since the gear is on the light side...

namaste

I would nab the DID version. Except for the camera, just as good and way cheaper if you can find it.

[sandrobrandiao]
