A Lenin figure?

[Zaheer]

Hello all, I'm not a regular on this sub forum but I think it must be the right place for this question...

I'm after a 28mm (or larger) figure of Lenin for a statue, is there anything out there? Buying singly would be very preferable.

Thank you!

I think this figure is 54mm will be just right for the monument.

That's a great figure and a nice variation on the typical 'Lenin hailing a taxi' pose. This one looks more like 'Lenin buying his copy of the Evening Standard and twenty Craven A'.

Cuprum, can you still find small Soviet statuettes of Lenin, etc in Russia?

I think the answer would be yes. There is an article with photos in the Daily Telegraph today of a statue of Lenin in Kiev being removed (in December) and now replaced with a gold painted toilet.

Can't find the later bit online, its in the paper edition today. There is a video of the statue being removed though. So if Lenin survived in Kiev until a couple of months ago...

I think it will be difficult. In the Soviet period, such figurines almost not made. Then the produced a small busts and sculptures are large enough (about 40 centimeters tall). Now nothing of the sort, of course, at all not  manufactured.

I converted a Dixon cowboy to make my own Lenin figure years ago.

Check the figure included in the brick lane commune pack of IHMN range of miniatures.

Unarmed speaker in 28mm and resembles Lenin!

Is this any good? I realise that the box is 'Stalin and Co', (sounds like a bad sitcom) but the Molotov (third from the left) might pass. The figures are 54mm, but if you want it for a statue that shouldn't be a problem, and it's also very cheap - £6.50 in the UK. (The models are by ICM)

You know, I think I'm going to buy that set. Perfect for my office. Thanks for the tip off.

I just purchased a 1/35 scale resin statue of Lenin made by Verlinden Productions, USA. I haven't assembled it yet but it looks like it will be about 8" tall including the pedestal. It has damage sculpted into it, as though it was standing in a Stalingrad city square. I'll be fixing the damage with filler.
