Im looking for the some 15mm Winter War Finnish, I know of the FOW stuff and will probably pick some up, but they don't seem to make any miniatures carrying a Lahti Saloranta(at least not in winter gear), and I need these for the ruleset im using (RoE), can anyone direct me to any? UK stockists preferred

Two Tin Soldiers used to do an excellent 15mm Finnish winter range supported by a scenario book suitable for company level games. They make up most of my force. Not sure though if they are still trading. Regards Alan

The last poster has it very right!

If you are looking for particular weapon types rather than an entire force note that RR figures are exponentially bigger than the BF Finns.Alan

thanks for the replies, I'll look more into resitanstroosters stuff, does anyone have any comparison shots with the FOW Finns?

2Tin Soldier would been your top choice year or two back – sadly, AFAIK, not available anymore. BFs sculpt is good, but as you said, no LMG of anykind included, oddly enough.
I was going to use them as my 1980s winter-time cold-war local defence troops, until I discovered there was no support weapons present.

Cant help you with comparision shots – I have seen few shots taken along older FoW sculpts, but not very recent ones.
