Iron Felix, labeled as "Iron Fenix" (if only).

Salvador Allende nearly exactly how he looked in his last picture, but labeled just "Mr President"

Yeah I saw the Soviet stuff, real shame Lego doesn't want to delve into military and R content in general, I also saw many anime and movie customs which legit look official. Is there a specific reason why Chinese Lego does this stuff with no problem but Lego is so reluctant about it even if we already got a number of sets which are intended to be 18+ and we have many themes which aren't so kid friendly.

Probably for the same reasons any other corpo is sitting silent about China:

It's a huge huge market, much money to be made
Chinese judiciary is often like that for western corpos silly demands:

Lmao, but I hope eventually one day they let go of that rule since they're going there more and more recently. One can dream...
