Tony Lopez Combat Sambo tapes

Does anyone have or seen the Tony Lopez Combat Sambo? I was wondering what you guys think about the tapes.

I have all of them.
There is some good stuff on these tapes, and I love the leg locks series. Tony Lopez seems like a nice guy (although might have some war flashbacks occasionally

) and seems to have some good knowledge.
I think that Tony Lopez may not be as "tight" with some moves as some of the others I have seen. But definately still worth checking out.

I have them, Ryu (non-working password).

I was wondering how far off or not does the realism of the tape go? I have them and seen them, I also love his leg locks, I think there is some really good material there. For myself, when working with weapons, I can look and see if the guy with weapons knows what he's doing or not, but I have no clue with grappling. I think that some of the moves were a little fancy, but is that due to lack of experience or am I correct?

I see how the "techniques" he shows can still be taken and mixed with some "aliveness". Basics all seem the same.
