Does anyone make 1960's Soviet or Eastern Block Police, or Military Police. I could maybe do with regular military in European theater uniform. Going to use them in a "007" game.

Thanks

May not be quite right for what you're after and you'd have to be patient, but we have 60s/70s Egyptians/Syrians on the drawing board for next year and they'll have Soviet kit.

Looking forward to the release of those Egyptians!

I used to have an East German police jacket and it was a basic, green long coat. Not terribly military looking.

I imagine if all else fails, you can get by with most any trench coated figure, particularly if it's a 007 game where you can a bit cheese ball :)

If they are general police ("militia"), they aren't likely to be heavily armed, but military security and border guards of course might be.

This is helpful, (and the book looks like great scenario fodder too)
