HELP HELP I now have 3 figurines with the same mark. The first one was about 2 weeks ago. I have been searching like crazy and can't find anything on them. Below is one of the figurines and the mark. I sure hope someone can help

You're right - it's Capo. Look up Capodimonte on ebay and you will find numerous items of this nature. Normally figurines made by Capo go for a pretty good price and this is a nice one. It's relatively new but I haven't seen one like it before.
BTW - "Capodimonte" means "top of the mountain". Made in Naples, Italy by small shops of craftsmen on the mountain above the city. Capo pieces are all hand made by individual artisans. If you look closely you will be able to find the craftsmans' fingerprints on the piece.

Hey! You hit it! Thanks so very much !! One of these three pieces have this mark and imprinted into the clay, the word Pucci. Can't find anything on him/her. Thanks so much. While looking this morning, I found this. I think it may help someone else.
