You mean besides the one that's in North Korea? |

Sundance, I didn't want to be the first. Use 20th century figures only a lot thinner. I don't know of anyone who produces anything newer than the the Korean War. |

Would Russians in fur hats work? |

If this was 15mm, I'd say Peter Pig models. Hey, waitaminute… 20mm Russians in cold weather gear? They'd be appropriately smaller than 28mm figs. (Norks are horribly malnourished, even the army) |

There aren't any 25mm figs to use? |

Try Mongrel miniatures they are a American company that sells through a British company ( New Line Deigns) without any state side reps. But they have Russians, and Syrians so some of those might work |

There was a line commissioned a few years ago by a "col stone" if I recall…they were a little undersized but looked really good. |

Whoops…they're Chinese! My bad. |

I used the Mongrel Afghan National Army with the square caps for a 1950-60s look.
Took an exacto knife to take off the mustaches and then clipped the AK magazine down to a stub to look more like an SKS. For a more '70s through to now, use the Newline/Mongrel Soviets. Paint the AKs completely black for the furniture. |

Make sure you modify the AKs to have cool helical magazines:

I think those are super-soakers. |

Norks are horribly malnourished, even the army Ignore this advice until this 'person' backs up this 'statement' with photographic evidence. |
