NorthStar sells an unknown Finnish soldier in 28mm from ww2. This soldier will cost you £ 3.50.

Hahaha, Unknown soldier, a corporal, a SMG, plus the whole description at the NS page hints at the beloved Corporal Antero Rokka from Väinö Linna's amazing Unknown Soldier novel.

Thrice filmed too (1955, 1985 and 2017)


Here Rokka is ambushing a circling Soviet platoon in all three of them:

All three movies are great but the novel is even better.

Notice the choice of the straight magazine, though – in one of the movies he was using a drum magazine.
