Great!

Great to see Finnish figures commercially produced. Very good characters if a bit cartoonish ;) .The first figure wears a Civil Guard uniform and a WW1 German helmet which could easily place him in the Winter War period. He is armed with the Lahti-Saloranta automatic rifle.The second officer figure is wearing a m22 winter fur hat and m36 uniform.He is carrying the famous Suomi sub machine pistol. The third figure is a member of the Lotta organisation. It was a womens auxiliary organisation where women serves as nurses, air wardens , communications etc.
I´m very happy to see these figures , thank you!
