Obviously it would be the Winter War.

Battle on the Ice?

Great Northern War.

Or the retreat from Moscow.

Poltava.

Aleutian Islands

Eylau?

Additions to the Korean War for Chosin?

Maybe fishy appendigaes - Finns !!!

Bases flocked and clumped. Tufts later.

Maybe it's 10mm Mounties??

'Modern' figures, for Ice Station Zebra/The Thing?

Wasn't there a Cold War film where the USSR invades Alaska? Not Red Dawn or The Day After, but around the same time?

PAH !

What I want to know is....

At the one true scale...apart from the magazines being a slightly different shape..one's curved (AK 47)....and one looks straight (AK 74)...what's the difference ?

In gaming use...do they have any different statistics ?

I never said anything about the Cold War, Martyn !!.....(Oh...Dammit..I have given it away now.)

'The Thing'.....Now that would be fun to make some wee 'men' 'thingys' for.

Cheers - Phil.

There are several types of magazine, so both would be correct. The 74 is just a small calibre version of the 47, round about 5.45mm as opposed to 7.62k used by the 47. Less stopping power but still more than enough. No difference in game terms.

Ice Station Zebra!

Forgot how much I love that film.
